Not had much luck with one thing and another but is progressive and much respected

Up 10lb and this is more competitive but she looks to have the most potential of these

Has only run over 7f to date but shapes as though he'll be fine at this trip; claims

Any rain would suit back on turf but is some way down the pecking order

2-2 over a turning 6f (both AW); player if she settles better from the inside stall
3 (8)	Seantrabh Bay J:Zak Wheatley(5) T:Declan Carroll	J:Zak Wheatley(5) T:Declan Carroll	133	—	391-44	82	94	73	66d	—	—	+1	10.7	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Hasn't fared as well on draw front today, going beyond 5f for the first time after a break

Can pull hard and hang left, and is starting to look exposed now; needs more
8 (9)	Northcliff Chestnut J:Phil Dennis T:Tim Easterby	J:Phil Dennis T:Tim Easterby	128	—	630280	77	97	78	28d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+6	11.2	4.25/1	18 6%
Maiden who's struggled in handicaps this year; drawn wide and only holds outside claims
10 (10)	Braveheart Boy Bay J:Billy Garritty T:Tim Easterby	J:Billy Garritty T:Tim Easterby	126	—	37-400	75	96	70	34d	—	—	+2	7.9	4.75/1	20 5%
Another ordinary effort behind Northcliff last time and, like that one, is drawn wide
5 (2)	Orbital Chime Bay J:P J McDonald T:James Horton	J:P J McDonald T:James Horton	132	p	24618-	81	90	60	252d	—	—	+13	16.8	6.00/1	25 4%
Well drawn but needs to improve for the first-time headgear back from eight months off
