Dam was fine on this ground, which gives hope, and he remains lightly raced; shortlisted
4 (5)	Terries Royale Bay J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	135	—	324121	77	89	78	11d	—	—	+13	32	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Progressive since handicapping and is ideally suited by soft ground; has to be considered
6 (3)	Tribal Chief Bay J:Harry Davies T:David Menuisier	J:Harry Davies T:David Menuisier	132	t	816311	77	87	57	25d	—	—	+14	33	0.83/1	10/3 23%
Progressed since handicapping; a 6lb rise demands more but a fair chance of the hat-trick
1 (1)	Urban Lion Bay J:George Bass(3) T:Jack Channon	J:George Bass(3) T:Jack Channon	139	—	8145	84	87	64	16d	—	—	+7	16.2	1.88/1	15/2 12%
No certainty today's easier 1m will suit back on to a less testing surface; needs more

Cheekpieces have helped; claims but up against some progressive 3yos off career-high mark
8 (7)	Dream Pirate Bay J:Adam Farragher T:T J Kent	J:Adam Farragher T:T J Kent	122	b	464460	64	95	65	54d	—	—	0	4.7	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Dual soft-ground winner this time last year who's back on a handy mark; one to consider
2 (4)	Repertoire Bay J:Jim Crowley T:David Simcock	J:Jim Crowley T:David Simcock	137	—	445373	79	91	78	44d	—	—	+8	13.1	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Remains consistent for his age and goes well for Jamie Spencer, so is one to consider
9 (6)	Dazitoo Chestnut J:Tom Marquand T:Ed Walker	J:Tom Marquand T:Ed Walker	122	—	5637	67	85	73	31d	—	—	+4	7.2	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Hasn't progressed, finishing well held on her handicap debut; has to prove her stamina
