Didn't see out 6f on AW on Good Friday; feasible mark back on turf; contender
6 (5)	Wen Moon Bay J:Paul Mulrennan T:Ben Haslam	J:Paul Mulrennan T:Ben Haslam	132	t	0933-8	79	95	89	24d	—	—	-7	13	0.75/1	3/1 25%
On a losing run but retains all his ability; major player dropped in class
2 (2)	Curious Rover Bay J:Sam James T:Katie Scott	J:Sam James T:Katie Scott	135	—	0186-2	82	96	85	30d	—	—	+2	17.4	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Good 2nd over C&D on last month's reappearance; lower draw preferred but each-way shout
8 (8)	Protest Rally Bay J:Cian Horgan(5) T:Liam Bailey	J:Cian Horgan(5) T:Liam Bailey	120	p	228-25	67	92	73	9d	—	—	-3	7.1	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Two C&D wins last year; running well at Catterick this year but up in class today
5 (9)	Arnhem Bay J:Kaiya Fraser(3) T:Rebecca Menzies	J:Kaiya Fraser(3) T:Rebecca Menzies	133	—	4396-0	80	92	77	22d	—	—	+1	9.9	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Made stable debut last month off a higher AW mark; didn't show enough to earn him the vote
7 (1)	Abduction Bay J:Lauren Young(7) T:Jim Goldie	J:Lauren Young(7) T:Jim Goldie	130	v	26-367	77	93	92	19d	—	—	+1	8.9	2.50/1	10/1 9%
On a losing run and the drop to 5f isn't sure to suit; risky despite a tempting mark
4 (4)	Fine Wine Bay J:Dale Swift T:Scott Dixon	J:Dale Swift T:Scott Dixon	133	b	/769-0	80	94	49	26d	—	—	+3	9.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Smart in his prime; on a dangerous mark and should leave last month's return well behind
3 (3)	One Night Stand Bay J:Tom Eaves T:Scott Dixon	J:Tom Eaves T:Scott Dixon	135	—	6-7266	82	94	73	10d	—	—	+5	9	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Capable off this mark but he wasn't at his best back on turf ten days ago; yard run two
9 (6)	Zaphea Chestnut J:Andrew Mullen T:Iain Jardine	J:Andrew Mullen T:Iain Jardine	120	—	8501-0	67	94	88	13d	—	—	+3	4.7	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Four wins last year, two over C&D, but was a remote last here on her recent return
