In depth
Formwatch
Little Pippin Has faced an uphill battle against the handicapper since winning here in August; has a long absence to overcome.
Attention Seeker (USA) Ex-French trained filly who should go on the ground; British debut here and difficult to assess.
Banco Suivi (IRE) Seemingly better on faster ground; may struggle.
April Stock Well enough treated and ground not a problem; jockey booking is a positive sign but stable yet to hit peak form.
Cooling Off (IRE) Still a maiden after seven starts; still likely to be one after her eighth.
Summer Break (IRE) Difficult to assess this ex-Irish trained runner; showed little in two starts on sand this winter.
Marjeune Encouraging recent comeback on the all-weather; stable in form and has to be respected off current mark.
River Ensign Ground not a problem but yet to prove this trip is ideal; likely to find at least one too good.
Tycoon's Last Runs off the same mark as when successful in a heavy ground handicap at Haydock in September; has to be respected.
Welsh Ploy Well treated on old form but looks to have regressed on the all-weather this winter.
