C&D winner; solid effort (behind Cuban Breeze) over C&D two weeks ago; shortlisted
NR (9)	Paws For Thought Bay J:Paul Hanagan T:Donald Mccain	J:Paul Hanagan T:Donald Mccain	131	p	52-371	84	99	54	1d	—	—	-3	13.2	1.13/1	9/2 18%

5 (2)	Cuban Breeze Bay J:Phil Dennis T:David Evans	J:Phil Dennis T:David Evans	130	v	805223	83	101	79	14d	—	—	+6	21.7	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Competitive again in recent starts & she's well drawn this time; each-way claims at least
2 (6)	Princess Shabnam Bay J:Franny Norton T:S Woods	J:Franny Norton T:S Woods	141	h	8-0650	94	100	82	7d	—	—	+1	15	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Conditions should suit and this the weakest race she's tackled for a while; could revive
3 (4)	Whenthedealinsdone Bay J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:Roger Teal	J:Callum Hutchinson(3) T:Roger Teal	140	p	43-472	93	103	73	33d	—	—	+2	14.1	1.63/1	13/2 13%
On good mark and latest Windsor 2nd is his best run of the year; perhaps best at shorter
4 (8)	Aberama Gold Bay J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Keith Dalgleish	J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Keith Dalgleish	136	v	052811	89	102	69	17d	—	—	+20	31.3	1.63/1	13/2 13%

1 (5)	Hyperfocus b/br J:Sean Kirrane(3) T:Tim Easterby	J:Sean Kirrane(3) T:Tim Easterby	142	p	022-01	95	100	81	63d	—	—	+6	13.2	2.75/1	12 8%
Ripon win off 2lb lower in April (5f, soft); has C&D form; rain would aid his cause
9 (7)	Hello Zabeel Bay J:Rowan Scott T:Charlie Fellowes	J:Rowan Scott T:Charlie Fellowes	123	p	1-1535	76	99	72	14d	—	—	+9	15.4	3.25/1	14 7%
Not much to find with a couple of these on a recent C&D run; one to consider
NR (10)	Bear Profit Bay J:Jack Mitchell T:Stuart Williams	J:Jack Mitchell T:Stuart Williams	129	—	613-88	82	101	55	12d	—	—	+5	9.3	4.75/1	20 5%
Not at his best so far this season and he has the worst of the draw to contend with
