C&D winner; retains ability for this yard and returning to 5f shouldn't be a problem
2 (2)	Burning Cash Bay J:David Nolan T:Paul Midgley	J:David Nolan T:Paul Midgley	136	—	15566-	81	92	77	273d	—	—	+1	13.1	1.75/1	7/1 13%
Capable off this mark and well drawn; nine-month absence to deal with but not ruled out
4 (5)	Brummell Bay J:Ryan Sexton T:Julie Camacho	J:Ryan Sexton T:Julie Camacho	133	—	33215-	78	96	75	153d	—	—	+11	20.9	1.75/1	7/1 13%
C&D win last May; impressed on AW in November; less good over 6f latest; drying ground a ?

10 (9)	Copper Knight Bay J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	J:David Allan T:Tim Easterby	128	t	07866-	73	91	91	195d	—	—	+1	7.5	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Admirable veteran but yet to shine at Beverley and likely to come on for seasonal return
8 (12)	Digital Bay J:James Sullivan T:Ruth Carr	J:James Sullivan T:Ruth Carr	130	—	5400-5	75	93	79	23d	—	—	+3	7.6	5.00/1	20/1 5%

Should be sharper with his reappearance behind him; return of blinkers a plus; wide stall
15 (1)	Zuffolo Bay J:Rhys Elliott(5) T:Michael Dods	J:Rhys Elliott(5) T:Michael Dods	121	b	1267-0	66	92	83	25d	—	—	+1	5.1	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Low-key reappearance but blinkers return today and he's well drawn; one for the shortlist
13 (4)	Ticktyboo Bay J:Alex Jary(5) T:Nigel Tinkler	J:Alex Jary(5) T:Nigel Tinkler	124	—	20100-	69	90	77	189d	—	—	+9	11.5	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Well held in two handicaps following a three-runner maiden win; slower than good ideal

Quiet on AW this year but down in class on return to turf; good or slower suits her best
