Successful return from wind surgery at Doncaster last month; 3lb rise looks manageable
4 (2)	Kodi Lion Bay J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	135	—	13242-	85	99	81	169d	—	—	+9	23.2	1.25/1	5/1 17%

0-14 last year but ran several good races; returns from a break on a dangerous mark
5 (7)	Rhythm Master Bay J:Sam James T:Geoffrey Harker	J:Sam James T:Geoffrey Harker	134	p	506-50	84	100	87	14d	—	—	-2	12.5	1.38/1	11/2 15%

On a dangerous mark but he has yet to find his best form this year; others more persuasive
13 (8)	Mysteryofthesands Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Tim Easterby	J:Cam Hardie T:Tim Easterby	122	—	37425-	72	98	93	161d	—	—	+5	11.2	4.00/1	16/1 6%
