14-race maiden; sound run when second in a Redcar handicap last November (1m, soft); lesser run on AW two weeks later and absent since; others appeal more.

First Encounter
Won two races last year, the first over 1m at Leicester in July (good to firm); not particularly consistent, but should come on for his reappearance run; worth considering.

Saddle slipped when pulled up last time; best form on the AW and hasn't been running well enough before that to suggest he can take this.

Tiberio Force
Hasn't the best of strike-rates; ran a couple of fair races when in the frame at Ripon and Newcastle last August, but ended the season on a low-key note; best form over further.

Anificas Beauty
All three wins have been at Chelmsford; ran her best race for a while when beaten a short head at Southwell last time (1m3f); has shown bits of from on turf, and quite interesting on first run over 1m (has raced mainly over 6f/7f although also tried over 1m3f and 2m).

Curious Mrs Fox
Ex-John Davies; placed over 1m on a couple of occasions in first half of last turf season but form rather tailed off; mainly disappointing for this yard this year (last of eight at Wetherby on Sunday).
