Colonial Empire
Has regressed since January's encouraging return from a long absence, most recently when finishing a remote last of five when tried in cheekpieces; on a good mark but the new trip and first-time visor need to spark a major revival.

Jack's Jury
Unraced for Nicky Henderson; posted two modest efforts after a promising hurdle/stable debut in February but ran his best race yet when second of six switched to handicaps over C&D (good) last month, staying on well over the longer trip; Shane Fenelon returns and, with his 5lb claim, worth considering.

Getuptheyard
Remains a maiden after 12 attempts over hurdles but has found only one too good on the last three occasions and only just lost out when upped to around this trip at Uttoxeter (good) 11 days ago; due to go back up 3lb and unexposed at the trip, so firmly in the picture.

Ferret Jeeter
Lightly raced 8yo who won on handicap debut at Fontwell (near 2m6f, good) last month but got no further than the second returned there (3m2f; evens) 11 days ago; likely to be suited by today's trip and, although the 12lb rise demands more, he's open to progress.

Pooroldmackley
A winner over fences at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) in April who followed up back over hurdles at Hereford (near 2m4f, good) three days later; recent third at Ludlow when ridden by 7lb claimer Eleanor Williams was a solid effort off his new mark but he was last of four finishers at Newton Abbot (chase) on Wednesday; back up in trip.

Cher Monsieur
Left behind some modest efforts over hurdles, including on April's handicap debut, when upped to 2m4f to finish a good staying-on third in the first-time hood at Uttoxeter (good) last month; has something to prove back on softer ground but this new trip is worth exploring; one of two for the stable.

Inspector Lynley
1-16 over hurdles with that win coming at Stratford (2m6f) on good ground last July off this mark; finished 25l adrift of Ferret Jeeter on last month's reappearance but that run may have been needed and more of a concern would be any further softening of the ground; one of two runners for the stable.

Talk Of The Moon
Third of 16 at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) on second handicap start but that was nearly two and a half years ago and she's probably best watched back from a such a long absence.

18-race maiden who was out of sorts over hurdles last season but returned to some form back from break and reverting to fences when a close third of seven from 7lb out of the weights at Southwell (3m, good) in April; out of the weights again back over hurdles and others appeal more.
