A below-par fifth last time, beaten eight lengths when market expectations were higher, Harswell Ruby drops a pound and adds cheekpieces for the first time. She landed by a length at Thirsk in April on a similarly workable mark, giving her the tools to bounce back if she rediscovers that level.

Progressive form figures, including a win four starts back, mark Welbury as one to note again as he tries cheekpieces for the first time. Only beaten two lengths off a slightly higher mark last time out, he holds solid trip and ground form and should keep improving.

Back on the mark that brought a win earlier in his recent form, Sailthisshipalone tries tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time and is proven over today's trip and ground. A subpar effort last time is a concern with the yard out of form, but there's more to come if he repeats that earlier shape.

Third in a novice event most recently, beaten three and a half lengths, Clonquest returns from an 88-day break and tries a hood for the first time. The outsider of the field on our figures, he retains untapped potential and looks the type to find a race before too long.

Flying Fletcher returns to a mark that has worked well for him previously and backed that up with a competitive Wetherby effort last time, beaten only two lengths. Proven over today's trip and ground, he remains one to note three weeks on from that run.

Held up and racing consistently before a below-par run at Carlisle last time, beaten five lengths, Rajapour tries tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time back over suitable trip and ground. He's close to a mark that has worked for him previously, but needs to rediscover that level.

Yet to fully train on but rated the one to beat, Wetsand adds cheekpieces for the first time and holds proven form over today's trip and ground. A below-par Carlisle effort last time, beaten ten lengths, is the one blot, but she's fully capable of the leap forward this switch could bring.

Mount King's form has faded across his last five starts, comfortably held last time out, and he remains up against it on our figures despite tongue-tie and cheekpieces added for the first time. He's proven over today's trip and ground and drawn wide, so conditions need to fall right for an improvement.

A well beaten campaign so far, with four runs unplaced and two more only ninth, War Howl was always struggling after a sluggish start at Wetherby last time. He's dropping in the weights and drawn wide today, so there's plenty still to prove despite his suitable trip and ground form.
