TIMEFORM VIEW Capitalised on a falling mark when scoring over C&D in June. Has found things tougher back up in grade both starts since, also poorly drawn when down the field at York 23 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back returned to this level here. TFR BHA70
TIMEFORM VIEW Won twice over 5f at Wolverhampton over the winter and returned to turf with a pair of placed efforts this summer. Has shaped as if still in decent heart the last twice, 1 3/4 lengths fifth of 11 at Windsor 3 weeks ago. TFR BHA68

Found things tougher up in grade when last of 10 at Newmarket 6 weeks ago, but drawn widest here on first run since leaving Richard & Peter Fahey. Hood back on. TFR BHA70

TIMEFORM VIEW Turned out again after 2 days off and justified strong support when scoring over this C&D in July. Well held in a class 4 at Thirsk 3 days ago, but this should be more suitable. TFR BHA69
TIMEFORM VIEW Confirmed promise of previous couple of runs when winning at Musselburgh in June. Made the frame in a stronger race over this C&D next time, but needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Nottingham 2 weeks ago. TFR BHA58

TIMEFORM VIEW Successful at 66/1 on yard debut at Redcar last spring and proved that no fluke when following up over C&D. Has worked her way back to form this season, close third of 6 at Ripon 3 weeks ago, so she merits consideration off the same mark as when winning here last year. TFR BHA54
TIMEFORM VIEW Won at Wolverhampton and Pontefract on first 2 starts this season and has continued in good heart, again making the frame when respectable fourth of 9 at Pontefract 12 days ago, Can give his running once more. TFR BHA68

TIMEFORM VIEW Winner over C&D in May, landing the race for the second year in succession. Places 3 times since, wasting no time bouncing back from a below-par run when third of 9 at Thirsk 24 days ago. Enters calculations from only 1lb above last winning mark. TFR BHA56
TIMEFORM VIEW Bounced back to winning ways at Nottingham in April on her return and close third at Beverley the following month. However, has been slowly away on her last 2 outings, fifth of 9 back at Beverley when last seen 2 months ago. TFR BHA69

THE TIMEFORM VIEW Preference is for TEES AGGREGATES, who won here in June and is well worth another chance after running in class 4 company both starts since. Returned to this grade, he gets the vote ahead of another C&D winner this season Irish Dancer, with Cheerleader also considered from her last winning mark.

TIMEFORM VIEW In good form over 1m at Ayr in blinkers recently, winning on the first occasion and showing even better form in defeat all 3 starts since, not having an easy time of things in front on latest. Blinkers quickly reapplied and hard to rule out in this vein of form. TFR BHA68
TIMEFORM VIEW Scored over C&D last summer and ran his best race for current yard to resume winning ways in 11-runner event at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) earlier in the month. Nudged up just 3lb and can make his presence felt once again. TFR BHA56

THE TIMEFORM VIEW A tricky finale to solve but the vote goes to EVOCATIVE SPARK, who shaped as if better for the run at Haydock recently and John Riches’ 7-y-o can add a fourth C&D success to his CV. Classy Clarets rates as an obvious danger having rattled off a 4-timer in the space of 17 days recently, with Runninsonofagun and Emerald Army another couple fancied to be in the shake-up, as well.

TIMEFORM VIEW Yet to score for current connections but arrives at the top of his game, third of 12 at Ayr (7f, good to firm) 9 days ago, not knuckling down so well as the first 2 having looked to be travelling better. Handicapper eases his grip further and he’s one for the shortlist. TFR BHA66
