Cephalus
Productive spell last winter/spring featured five AW wins over 1m; slow to come to hand this time around but in the face of market support he returned to form with a close second at Chelmsford last month (1m2f); another big run expected.

Grabajabba
Won two novice events in December, over C&D (better form) before following up at Wolverhampton; well beaten over C&D on his handicap debut last month and not sure he's that well treated.

The Cookstown Cafu
Won two of his first three starts for D O'Meara, all at Newcastle (7f and 1m); form has levelled off more recently and he finished behind Mr Mistoffelees three weeks ago when a visor was tried for the first time.

Master Of Combat
Disappointing here three weeks ago but he'd been in good form beforehand, second at Wolverhampton and Lingfield around the turn of the year; needs a full revival to win though.

Mr Mistoffelees
Went the wrong way for Hughie Morrison and he made an inauspicious start over hurdles for this yard in December (made a respiratory noise); much more to like about his third over C&D three weeks ago, however, finishing strongly from the rear despite meeting some trouble; wouldn't be sure to back it up but he has plenty of handicapping scope.

Clear Angel
Solid fourth in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on last season's reappearance, the second time he's run well in that contest; has won on Tapeta and he lurks on a dangerous mark but suspicion that he'll be of more interest with this outing behind him.

Delicacy
Off the mark at the 12th attempt when readily seeing off four rivals in a 1m fillies' handicap at Chepstow last September; sold for 16,000gns soon after; 5lb higher mark could leave her vulnerable.

Starliner
Won a 7f handicap at Newcastle in November and ran well for second over that course and distance the following month; in and out since and others look safer prospects; goes without the hood today.

Shahbaz
Promising effort at Kempton 17 days ago, keeping on from the rear over 7f; return to a mile in his favour and he's well treated now; one to take seriously.

Kracking
Prominent racer; beaten favourite on his last two starts but has shaped as though still in form; steps up in class this evening and a career best is required.

Shaw Park
Good record on turf at Brighton, winning on three of his seven visits; 0-22 on AW, however, and although he was second over 7f in October, he hasn't built on it in five runs since.

Forever Proud
Four wins since joining James Owen, the latest in a fillies' Class 5 last month (7f); needs to step up on her last two runs if she is to come out on top here though.
