76 Expert View: Ran to form, completed double landing a handicap by a neck off a 5lb lower mark at Yarmouth last time; may be best suited by 5f and a sound surface; capable of rating more highly, even off this higher mark.
Form Snapshot: Successful at 5f and 6f on good ground and on the all-weather. Won on his latest outing when 2-1fav at Yarmouth over 5f (good) last month, beating Takincareofbizness by a neck. Has also won at Chelmsford City this season.
64 Expert View: Ran at least to form down in trip beaten 4 1/2l in a novice at Wolverhampton last time; returning from a break; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; consistent sort but needs more to be competitive.
Form Snapshot: Unplaced in all three starts. Finished 4 1/2l behind Burdett Estate when sixth of 10 at 20-1 on her latest outing at Wolverhampton over 5f in December last year.
75 Expert View: Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Bath last time; effective 5f, acts on soft, good, good to firm and AW; consistent in short career and should be in the mix again here.
Form Snapshot: Placed in four of seven starts. Third of 9 behind Solar Invincible beaten 1 1/4l at 8-1 on her latest outing at Bath over 5f (good) last month.
73 Expert View: Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; suited by 5f, acts on soft, good and AW; knocking on the door and can go well again.
Form Snapshot: Placed twice in seven starts. Beaten 1/2l by Fille Unique when second of 7 at 5-1 on her latest outing at Musselburgh over 5f (good) last month.
71 Expert View: Below form again down the field in a handicap at Beverley most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective 5f, acts on sound surface; needs to find a lot more.
Form Snapshot: Yet to place in six starts. Beaten 15l behind Alfa Duplicate at 33-1 when last of 14 on his latest outing at Beverley over 5f (good to soft) earlier this month. He is wearing cheekpieces for the first time.
69 Expert View: Ran to form beaten 7l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; sprint-bred, effective 6f, may not stay 7f, acts on AW; looks to have found level and hard to recommend.
Form Snapshot: Unplaced in all four starts. Beaten 7l behind Pivotal Terms at 12-1 when 11th of 13 on his latest outing at Newcastle over 6f last month.
69 Expert View: Scored by a neck off a 1lb lower mark at Newcastle three starts back; below form ninth beaten 15l off 59 last time, 1lb lower here; suited by stiff 5f, acts on AW; generally consistent, but needs to bounce back.
Form Snapshot: Successful twice at 5f on the all-weather. Beaten 16l behind Liverpool Star at 20-1 when 9th of 10 on his latest outing at Ripon over 6f (good) last month.
73 Expert View: Scored by 1 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Newcastle in February; back to form second beaten a length off 57 last time, 1lb higher here; suited by stiff 5/6f, acts on soft, good and AW; seemed to appreciate return to turf and can go well again.
Form Snapshot: A winner at 5f on the all-weather. Beaten 1l by Tickettothestars when second of 15 at 12-1 on her latest outing here over 6f (good) last month.
73 Expert View: Won well to open account landing a handicap by a length off a 4lb lower mark here last time; effective 5-7f, acts on a sound surface; can go well again.
Form Snapshot: Won on her latest outing when 9-2jt-fav here over 6f (good) last month, beating Mademoiselle Belle by 1l.
Go Lockers Go and Tickettothestars are both recent winners to note, while Mademoiselle Belle was a close second to the latter over 6f here last time and is another to consider. That said, marginal preference is for DATA FATA SECUTUS, who met trouble when runner-up at Musselburgh 10 days ago and she can make amends off just 1lb higher here.
GO LOCKERS GO is thriving at present and, having followed up on a Chelmsford victory at Yarmouth last time out, may still have enough in hand to defy another rise in the weights. Tickettothestars impressed when scoring over 6f here last time and is respected dropped to the minimal trip despite moving up the handicap. Dragon Spin continues to run consistently well, finishing just over a length behind in third at Bath latest, and should once again be thereabouts off a 1lb lower mark.
