Boasts a decent, consistent record on Tapeta round Newcastle; should fare much better
3 (2)	Melek Alreeh Bay J:Kieran Shoemark T:David Simcock	J:Kieran Shoemark T:David Simcock	132	—	1-2425	82	95	77	46d	—	—	+4	19.4	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Currently 2-2 round here, both over 1m4f; player if stamina holds over this longer trip
6 (3)	Ribble Vibe Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	131	—	-53275	81	95	87	16d	—	—	0	15.6	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Better effort without seeing out 2m at York last time; one to consider back down in trip
9 (11)	Road To Wembley Bay J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	J:Finley Marsh T:Richard Hughes	127	b	213629	77	97	75	33d	—	—	+3	17.2	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Little wiggle room off this mark; much will hinge on how he responds to the new headgear
4 (9)	Playtime Chestnut J:P J McDonald T:Andrew Balding	J:P J McDonald T:Andrew Balding	132	h	82/561	82	93	48	10d	—	—	-1	11.6	1.50/1	6/1 14%
Won easily at Chester (1m4f) ten days ago; 9lb rise may be doable if settling early
2 (4)	Wadacre Gomez Bay J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	J:Joe Fanning T:Charlie Johnston	133	—	287746	83	97	81	33d	—	—	+4	9.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; usual headgear comes off
1 (7)	Imperial Sovereign Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Philip Kirby	J:Cam Hardie T:Philip Kirby	135	—	5-8000	85	88	71	17d	—	—	+6	10	5.00/1	20/1 5%
This is easier down another 4lb and back on the AW but he's hard to recommend at present
8 (10)	Wiltshire Wonder Bay J:Luke Morris T:Archie Watson	J:Luke Morris T:Archie Watson	129	—	4161-9	79	96	45	249d	—	—	+4	8.6	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Ran poorly when last seen eight months ago; interesting to see how he goes in the market
10 (6)	Optician Bay J:Lewis Edmunds T:Michael Herrington	J:Lewis Edmunds T:Michael Herrington	125	t	-36230	75	96	85	158d	—	—	+8	12.7	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Has gone well here but possible he'll need this for his new yard after five months off
5 (8)	Wahraan Chestnut J:Dougie Costello T:Jessica Bedi	J:Dougie Costello T:Jessica Bedi	132	ht	-99885	82	92	63	57d	—	—	+5	9	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Serial slow starter who lost his way for Jamie Osborne; fair debut for his new yard latest
11 (1)	The Craftymaster Chestnut J:Ray Dawson T:Tony Carroll	J:Ray Dawson T:Tony Carroll	118	—	825967	68	92	86	124d	—	—	+4	6.2	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Four-month break since poor spell in the spring; will need to be bang on it on return
