Mirsky
Four turf wins (1m-1m3f) on good to soft in France but he's 0-10 in Britain and was well held on recent reappearance at Newmarket (1m, good); mark continues to fall but he needs a major upturn in form.

Rhythm Master
Just two wins from 30 starts and was quiet over C&D (Hunt Cup) two weeks ago but he was running well before that including an eyecatching second at Redcar (1m, good to firm); looks interesting on that form and he's not ruled out on this drop back in grade.

Star Studied
Evens favourite when making a successful debut at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in February 2024 and he followed up with a comfortable win under a penalty at Kempton the following month; been absent since but he looks a useful prospect for handicaps and is an interesting contender on his comeback.

Obelix
Took advantage of reduced mark when landing a competitive handicap at Haydock (1m, good) in September; creditable fourth over 7f here on reappearance last month but he's not easy to predict and was out the back in the Hunt Cup over C&D last time; remains feasibly treated and now drops back in grade but he comes with risks attached.

On The River
Four wins on good to soft or slower last year; reappeared with a close second at Ripon (1m, good) last month but he falied to back that up at Pontefract 13 days later; has something to prove after that heavy defeat and this return to fast ground is a negative.

Redarna
Veteran who has won 16 times including over C&D; reappeared with ninth of 13 in Hunt Cup here two weeks ago but he may have needed that run and is only 1lb higher than for his win at Ayr in the autumn; could be dangerous on this drop back in grade and he's not ruled out.

Barley
Respectable fifth in two runs at Redcar (1m, good/good to firm) this season but he's only won once since April 2022 and that was in a Class 4 event 11 months ago; others are more persuasive.

Quiet Resolve
Dual AW winner who is 0-6 on turf but he ran near his best when a close third at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 13 days ago; this is a big step back up in grade but he's on the same mark as last time and could make another bold bid.
