11 (6)	Akrivos Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:Ian Williams	J:Billy Loughnane T:Ian Williams	126	—	9-7444	49	66	58	21d	—	—	-12	5	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Fourth under Billy Loughnane over 1m2f latest; 2lb lower but drop back to 7f is a query
6 (12)	Fickle McSelfish Chestnut J:David Nolan T:Tony Coyle & Kaine Wood	J:David Nolan T:Tony Coyle & Kaine Wood	133	p	9-7451	56	69	56	7d	—	1W/1P 1 run	-11	6.5	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Big improver last week in added cheekpieces; drawn widest but 5lb well in under penalty
4 (4)	Maximum Velocity Bay J:Rowan Scott T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Rowan Scott T:Nigel Tinkler	134	—	677-3	57	68	34	21d	—	0W/1P 1 run	-7	9.8	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Good third on h'cap debut last time; reasons to think he can do better again; player
1 (9)	Quick Quasar Bay J:Hollie Doyle T:Archie Watson	J:Hollie Doyle T:Archie Watson	135	p	5-70	58	68	46	42d	—	—	-8	6	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Best of three qualifying runs came on Tapeta; has been gelded; watch market on h'cap debut
2 (1)	Popty Ping Bay J:Mark Winn T:David O'Meara	J:Mark Winn T:David O'Meara	135	v	2-4626	58	62	56	21d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-3	8.8	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Unlucky last time and is just 1lb above her last winning mark; has to be considered
5 (10)	Saxon Grace Chestnut J:Jason Hart T:Daragh Bourke	J:Jason Hart T:Daragh Bourke	134	—	8930-6	57	62	40	9d	—	—	-5	4.3	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Gambled on when making stable debut last time; drawn wide again but needs a market watch
8 (11)	Mereside Princess br/gr J:William Pyle(3) T:David & Nicola Barron	J:William Pyle(3) T:David & Nicola Barron	130	p	334-37	53	62	49	21d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-5	3.1	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Consistent but not progressing in h'caps; likely runs her race but others of more interest
3 (7)	Kwidsin Bay J:Oliver Stammers T:Grant Tuer	J:Oliver Stammers T:Grant Tuer	135	—	598-	58	60	-	189d	—	—	-3	4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Didn't build on fair debut; switches to AW for seasonal/h'cap debut; market helpful
9 (8)	Tickettothestars Bay J:Joanna Mason T:Rod Millman	J:Joanna Mason T:Rod Millman	129	—	66-805	52	68	52	13d	—	—	-2	1.3	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Yet to place in nine starts; solid effort in course maiden last time but that was over 5f
10 (2)	Sirhana Bay J:Oisin Orr T:Richard & Peter Fahey	J:Oisin Orr T:Richard & Peter Fahey	129	—	7-6640	52	64	37	21d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-1	1.2	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Undistinguished effort when last at Newcastle (also 7f, Tapeta; 40-1) three weeks ago
12 (3)	Forceful Lady Bay J:William Carson T:Tony Carroll	J:William Carson T:Tony Carroll	124	—	425-88	47	63	51	58d	—	—	-2	0.7	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Unconvincing but November's second (7f, Tapeta) gives her a squeak off this reduced mark
7 (5)	Serragasso Bay J:J F Egan T:Clare Hobson	J:J F Egan T:Clare Hobson	131	—	0-94	54	58	22	19d	—	—	0	1.5	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Appeared to step forward when 200-1 fourth latest; h'cap debut and may be more to come
