On a long losing run and 0-15 on AW; still likely to go well at this level though
2 (4)	Blackcurrent Bay J:Paula Muir(3) T:Alan Brown	J:Paula Muir(3) T:Alan Brown	135	p	-27444	48	61	48	9d	—	—	-13	6.7	0.75/1	3/1 25%
Front-runner who has had excuses the last twice; big player at this level
4 (3)	Lupset Flossy Pop Bay J:Hollie Doyle T:Gary Brown	J:Hollie Doyle T:Gary Brown	135	p	754-22	47	63	49	26d	—	—	-12	5	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Losing run of 18 but she's finished 2nd in both runs for new yard; return to 6f is a plus
8 (2)	Universal Grace Bay J:Sean Levey T:Stuart Williams	J:Sean Levey T:Stuart Williams	135	—	3-5726	47	60	49	11d	—	—	-6	5.2	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Conditions fine and she's more appealing than many at this level; each-way claims again
5 (5)	Lynwood Lad Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Jonathan Portman	J:Rob Hornby T:Jonathan Portman	135	p	117-67	49	63	55	21d	—	—	-7	2.9	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Two 6f wins in November; gone off the boil more recently and needs a full revival
6 (1)	Perfect Focus Bay J:Joe Leavy(7) T:Lee Carter	J:Joe Leavy(7) T:Lee Carter	135	b	0004-0	50	59	41	20d	—	—	-7	2.9	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Not solid but his penultimate run was okay and this is a further ease in grade
7 (8)	Pink Stripes Grey J:Ethan Jones(7) T:Lisa Williamson	J:Ethan Jones(7) T:Lisa Williamson	135	—	428-69	43	58	46	13d	—	—	-1	0.2	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Exposed low-grade maiden; below best in two runs this year; others are more persuasive
NR (6)	Indie Skies Brown J:TBC T:Michael Appleby	J: T:Michael Appleby	140	—	26-051	47	64	56	1d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Well backed when making a winning stable debut yesterday (7f); key player back at 6f
