Placed in all 4 h'caps; 0-7 and climbing the weights, but every chance he'll be in the mix
4 (3)	Regalian Bay J:Cieren Fallon T:William Haggas	J:Cieren Fallon T:William Haggas	128	b	133	85	100	93	21d	—	—	+3	25.5	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Kept on for 3rd on h'cap debut over 1m at Newbury; the extra furlong could be a firm plus
1 (8)	Thunder Wonder Chestnut J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	135	—	6-3140	92	101	93	14d	—	—	-1	14.9	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Easily made all here in April; excuse at Haydock last time; of interest now back here
6 (6)	I Am Me Bay J:Connor Beasley T:Edward Bethell	J:Connor Beasley T:Edward Bethell	123	—	539-15	80	100	80	29d	—	—	-2	11.1	1.75/1	7/1 13%
2l win over C&D on yard debut; only 5th at Ascot since but could still have more to offer

Possibly inconvenienced by staying on the far side at Haydock; previous AW form reads well
2 (1)	We Dare To Dream Bay J:Paul Mulrennan T:David O'Meara	J:Paul Mulrennan T:David O'Meara	130	—	12-215	87	99	83	21d	—	—	+2	12.1	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Won at Beverley last month; no impact at Newmarket since but he's not discounted
8 (7)	Pappa Louis Bay J:Rhys Elliott(5) T:Tom Dascombe	J:Rhys Elliott(5) T:Tom Dascombe	118	v	18-942	75	99	94	7d	—	—	+3	7.6	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Runner-up at Chester last Saturday but no match for winner and is 5lb out of the handicap
3 (4)	Bassadanza Bay J:Andrew Mullen T:Charlie Johnston	J:Andrew Mullen T:Charlie Johnston	129	—	116-	86	96	67	217d	—	—	+19	21.9	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Two wins from her three 2yo starts; lacks a recent run but brings potential to h'cap debut
