Two fourths for this yard have been encouraging; good-value claimer booked; interesting

Legendary sprinter with 17 wins; good second at Ripon seven days ago; in the mix

17 wins in a stellar career; fifth at Doncaster three weeks ago; makes the shortlist

Has been knocking at the door, fourth at Southwell last time; makes each-way appeal
1 (5)	Goyard Bay J:David Nolan T:David O'Meara	J:David Nolan T:David O'Meara	135	—	2118	84	91	79	14d	—	—	+14	25.3	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Only eighth on handicap debut but had previously made all for two short-odds wins at Ripon
9 (8)	Emeralds Pride Brown J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	J:Sean Kirrane T:Michael Dods	129	p	654123	78	95	91	41d	—	—	+11	21.4	2.13/1	17/2 11%
In good form in the summer; unproven on soft/heavy so rain would be a negative
10 (2)	Spoof Bay J:William Pyle(3) T:Kevin Frost	J:William Pyle(3) T:Kevin Frost	129	—	040-94	78	94	76	29d	—	—	+3	8.6	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Veteran; has shown he retains some ability this term; not without hope if the gaps appear
2 (9)	Lexington Blitz Bay J:Tom Eaves T:Robert Cowell	J:Tom Eaves T:Robert Cowell	134	p	205022	83	92	85	38d	—	—	+13	18.4	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Arrives after creditable seconds at Musselburgh and Catterick; unraced on softer than good
3 (10)	Sugar Hill Babe Bay J:Callum Hutchinson T:Lisa Williamson	J:Callum Hutchinson T:Lisa Williamson	134	—	123420	83	94	90	49d	—	—	+10	14.9	4.50/1	18/1 5%
C&D second gives her a squeak and a below-par run next time is best forgiven

Raced wide at Chester two weeks ago; probably remains in form and should be thereabouts
