Consistent performer in AW handicaps with good recent form including a nose second at Southwell 17 days ago. Third of 9 at Wolverhampton (9/4 favourite) 9 days ago, typically giving his running. Continues to demonstrate reliability at this…

Little Ted (G)
[P]
Inconsistent on turf but got back on track when finishing 2nd of 10 in handicap over 8f at Newcastle (13/2) 33 days ago. Should be competitive over this slightly shorter trip.

Cordelin (M)
Last of 8 in novice at this C&D (200/1) 27 days ago on first outing since leaving James Ferguson. Makes handicap debut today but significant improvement needed.

[P]
Course winner 37 days ago before finishing fifth of 10 in a handicap over 8f here (7/2) 9 days ago, raced off the pace and wasn't disgraced despite lacking a strong gallop.

Strobelight (G)
[B1T]
Modest form in AW handicaps: 3rd at Wolverhampton (9f), 2nd at Lingfield (8f). Recently 7th of 13 at Southwell (7f), only 3 lengths behind. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces, which may help build on recent improvement over what seeme…

Cable Beach (G)
Off the mark over 7f at Southwell 33 days ago and ran creditably when 4th of 13 in handicap at Southwell (4/1) 11 days ago. Could be competitive at this course where has previously shown promise.

Fidget Lady (F)
Shown very little in career, eighth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle over 6f (50/1) 41 days ago. Poor record offers little encouragement for step back up to 7f.
