0-15 for former yard but close 3rd over C&D on latest run; one to consider on stable debut
13 (11)	King Of The Jungle Bay J:Joanna Mason T:Michael & David Easterby	J:Joanna Mason T:Michael & David Easterby	130	—	00783	55	70	61	34d	—	—	-4	7.6	1.88/1	15/2 12%

Down in weights; there are risks but returning to 6f a plus, as is the form of his yard

0-8 but has shown some promise; below par dropped to 5f on Monday; each-way claims

Needs improvement but dropping to 6f in first-time blinkers could spark it
12 (15)	Parr Fire Bay J:Alex Jary(7) T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Alex Jary(7) T:Nigel Tinkler	131	v	467930	56	72	57	29d	—	—	0	5	4.75/1	20 5%
Below par in a Class 5 last time but earlier Doncaster third gives her claims

Two handicap runs at Beverley have offered hope of better; 6f should suit
14 (10)	Storminghull Chestnut J:Jason Watson T:David C Griffiths	J:Jason Watson T:David C Griffiths	127	—	960-57	52	68	22	202d	—	—	-2	1.3	8.00/1	33 3%
