All of these ran moderately last time except for CLASINA who looked most unfortunate not to finish closer at Musselburgh last month, and she can gain compensation here. The main danger is C&D winner Darbucks who was undone by a bad draw at Catterick on his seasonal debut last month and should be spot on. The veteran Trais Fluors is still capable of winning something similar but needs a fast-run race to be at his best. [Andrew Bladen]

Scored over C&D (good) in October off 5lb lower mark and followed up at Redcar (7f, soft) eight days later; beaten by a bad draw when last of 14 at Catterick (7f, good) last month and will strip fitter.
All three wins have been on turf and she was unfortunate when slowly away after her blindfold came off late when staying on to finish third of nine at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; pulled too hard when sixth of nine here (6f, good) three days ago; needs to settle over this extra furlong.
0-10 but ran a race full of promise, meeting trouble on a couple of occasions, when fourth of ten at Musselburgh (7f, good; 3-1) last month; should go close if able to reproduce that effort.
Got off the mark on turf here (1m, good to firm) last May and won again at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) in October; never on terms when seventh of ten on seasonal debut at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month and may need to come down a few pounds.
Has tumbled down the weights and due to go down a further 4lb after today; the return of a tongue-tie and switch from cheekpieces to visor (retained) did little to halt his decline when tenth of 13 at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) nine days ago; others preferred.
