C&D winner and won again at Beverley last time; off 4lb higher he looks a player
4 (1)	Monte Linas b J:Jack Mitchell T:Simon & Ed Crisford	J:Jack Mitchell T:Simon & Ed Crisford	140	—	537-82	80	87	68	19d	—	—	-6	13.2	10/3 23%
Has won off 1lb higher; good run at Beverley last time and he's fresher than most
5 (4)	Hale End b J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	140	p	610152	80	88	83	21d	—	—	+8	24.2	5/1 17%
Career best in winning at Ayr (1m, good) in July and bang there in his two subsequent runs
1 (2)	Theme Park b J:Faye McManoman T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Faye McManoman T:Nigel Tinkler	141	—	505158	81	86	69	26d	—	—	+1	17.8	4/1 20%
York winner in July; not in the same form since but he's capable of bouncing back
7 (5)	Urban Sprawl ch J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Charlie Johnston	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Charlie Johnston	139	p	3-9069	79	84	55	12d	—	—	+3	11.7	10/1 9%
Easy to make a case on his 3yo form but this campaign hasn't picked up at all
3 (11)	Light Speed b J:Harrison Shaw T:Gemma Tutty	J:Harrison Shaw T:Gemma Tutty	140	—	990714	80	87	67	19d	—	—	+10	16.4	12/1 8%
Upside Monte Linas at Beverley 19 days ago and he didn't get the best of runs
2 (10)	On The River b J:Cam Hardie T:Harriet Bethell	J:Cam Hardie T:Harriet Bethell	141	—	941484	81	85	73	24d	—	—	+6	12.5	14/1 7%
Drying conditions aren't ideal, nor a wide draw for one who likes to be up there
9 (12)	Garden Oasis b J:Duran Fentiman T:Tim Easterby	J:Duran Fentiman T:Tim Easterby	138	v	212326	78	86	78	24d	—	—	+13	16.3	28/1 3%
Former winner of this race and having another solid season; new visor should be fine
8 (3)	Golden Sands ch J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	139	hp	320-08	79	84	24	59d	—	—	+5	8	28/1 3%
Returns to his best trip after two defeats over shorter but he's hard to trust
11 (7)	Petra Celera b J:Luke Morris T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	J:Luke Morris T:Roger Fell & Sean Murray	129	—	771414	73	84	74	9d	—	—	+13	16.6	33/1 3%
Hasn't been running at all badly but unraced beyond 7f and that looks an issue
12 (9)	Visibility b J:Mikkel Mortensen(5) T:Scott Dixon	J:Mikkel Mortensen(5) T:Scott Dixon	128	—	175049	68	86	71	16d	—	—	+3	5.2	50/1 2%
The last of his ten wins was here over 1m2f in July; patch since and others appeal more
10 (6)	Sound Pressure b J:Billy Garritty T:Sam England	J:Billy Garritty T:Sam England	134	—	157/90	74	81	42	12d	—	—	+5	6.2	150/1 1%
Dual winner but tailed-off last in two runs for this one after a long absence
