Unexposed and looks highly promising; needs serious consideration
9 (1)	Sharp Power Bay J:Connor Planas(5) T:Richard Hughes	J:Connor Planas(5) T:Richard Hughes	122	—	325211	82	107	97	18d	—	—	+16	33.5	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Chasing a hat-trick after 6f wins at Windsor and Wolverhampton; up 7lb on different ground

Handles soft but this year's improvement has come on faster ground; up in class
3 (9)	Tawalla Bay J:Harry Davies(3) T:Charlie Fellowes	J:Harry Davies(3) T:Charlie Fellowes	126	—	6-211	86	103	73	45d	—	—	0	12.6	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Chasing a hat-trick after 6f wins at Ripon and Kempton; could still have more in the tank
10 (4)	Dream For Gold Bay J:Josephine Gordon T:Kevin Ryan	J:Josephine Gordon T:Kevin Ryan	121	—	2-1502	81	108	95	24d	—	—	+5	13.8	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Ran well at Epsom latest despite the track not suiting; this is a deeper race though
4 (5)	Divine Libra Grey J:David Probert T:Charles Hills	J:David Probert T:Charles Hills	126	—	4-1451	86	105	90	14d	—	—	+2	11.7	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Conditions should suit him well but this looks a tougher race than Chester last time
1 (8)	Alpha Capture Bay J:Adam Farragher(3) T:William Haggas	J:Adam Farragher(3) T:William Haggas	135	p	13-270	95	107	96	16d	—	—	+5	13.5	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Dangerous on last year's best and the return of cheekpieces could help; not ruled out
2 (10)	Animate Bay J:James Doyle T:Simon & Ed Crisford	J:James Doyle T:Simon & Ed Crisford	130	p	-61320	90	107	62	16d	—	—	+14	19.6	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Unexposed at 6f; has to prove himself on turf but he retains some potential
5 (3)	Kuwait City Bay J:Darragh Keenan T:John Butler	J:Darragh Keenan T:John Butler	125	—	5-5137	85	108	90	21d	—	—	+6	9.8	6.00/1	25 4%
Still favourably handicapped but 6f on slow ground might stretch his stamina reserves
8 (2)	Misty Blues Bay J:Hayley Turner T:Tim Easterby	J:Hayley Turner T:Tim Easterby	124	—	2325-6	84	104	87	28d	—	—	+6	9.5	6.75/1	28 4%
Had some good nursery form last year but she ran a lifeless race at Chester on her return
