Four wins this year, two over C&D; not much wiggle room off this mark but not discounted

Won this last year and comes here on the back of a good run in the Ayr Silver Cup; chance
2 (12)	Another Baar Bay J:Oisin McSweeney T:Adrian Paul Keatley	J:Oisin McSweeney T:Adrian Paul Keatley	135	tb	921111	93	107	92	25d	—	—	+27	39.1	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Chasing 5-timer and conditions won't bother him; 24lb higher than when winning spree began
1 (8)	Korker Bay J:Pierre-Louis Jamin T:K R Burke	J:Pierre-Louis Jamin T:K R Burke	140	—	033800	98	104	97	56d	—	—	+7	15.9	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Dangerous mark if taking to the track; often slowly away; could go well
10 (11)	Manila Scouse Bay J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	122	t	761670	80	103	100	8d	—	—	+6	12.3	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Made all at Thirsk off 1lb lower in July; other pace influences to contend with today
4 (3)	Strong Warrior Bay J:Cam Hardie T:Richard Fahey	J:Cam Hardie T:Richard Fahey	134	t	1-1200	94	103	86	21d	—	—	+13	19.8	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Stiff tasks on last two starts; now tried in tongue tie; could tap back into early promise

Conditions ideal and likely to give a good account despite being 3lb out of the weights
5 (9)	Aleezdancer Bay J:Shane Gray T:Kevin Ryan	J:Shane Gray T:Kevin Ryan	132	b	-98100	90	106	85	13d	—	—	+9	17.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
C&D winner; made all at Pontefract in July but less good in two runs since; capable
3 (1)	Sophia's Starlight Bay J:Oliver Stammers T:Grant Tuer	J:Oliver Stammers T:Grant Tuer	134	—	4-8007	92	103	93	8d	—	—	+5	12.6	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Yet to shine in 2025 but appears to retain ability; drying ground not in her favour though
7 (7)	Intervention Bay J:William Pyle(3) T:Michael Appleby	J:William Pyle(3) T:Michael Appleby	129	p	313159	87	102	93	21d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+13	18.8	3.50/1	14/1 7%
