Penguin Bay Lightly raced maiden who is open to further improvement but looks high enough in the weights.
Perpetuo Tough filly who took advantage of strong pace to score easily at Beverley latest (now 6lb higher); should get good gallop once again and will prove hard to keep out of frame at least.
Dispol Rock (IRE) In fair form but not certain to appreciate return to longer trip (failed to stay only previous start over this distance).
Buying A Dream (IRE) Has been most disappointing this term and has dropped 27lb since start of current campaign; looks on the downgrade.
Noble Cyrano Has benefited from hobday operation and suited by step up to this trip when decisive winner of Newcastle claimer in June; will find this tougher and has been off the track for over two months.
Mujkari (IRE) From bang in-form stable but this fellow is unlikely to add to the tally on recent efforts.
Shaffishayes Veteran who has been a fine servant down the years but on long losing sequence and despite very lenient mark recent form well below best.
Jonloz Poor performer who has little chance of reversing recent Thirsk form with Perpetuo on revised terms.
Aldwych Arrow (IRE) On long losing sequence and best form on soft/fibresand.
Runaway Star Finally lost maiden tag when narrow winner of very modest middle-distance handicap latest (now 3lb higher); more to do here.
Highcal Well treated on winning form last term but has failed to sparkle of late and tries blinkers for first time here.
Subadar Major Well beaten on fibresand at Wolverhampton latest but better judged on maiden handicap win at Ayr in June; 5lb higher but receives plenty of weight from main rivals and may be good enough to follow up.
Mawdsley No chance from 9lb out of handicap.
