From his falling mark, MERSEY STREET produced his best effort since switched to handicaps when runner-up to an improver at Fakenham last month, so with that run behind him he could be ready to get off the mark. Whynotnowroy was suited by the longer trip when winning at this C&D in May and is feared most on stable debut, ahead of Getoverthathill.

    Verdict
    Made the frame on final 3 starts in 2023/24, before showing improved form when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D (good) in May. Could still have more to offer at this trip, so he's respected on first run since leaving Keiran Burke.

    Verdict
    Having eased further in the weights after 4 months off, ran best race in handicaps when second of 10 at Fakenham (20f, good) 18 days ago, leading until after 2 out having forced the pace. Can build on that run to open his account.

    Verdict
    Well held on hurdling debut in Ireland in 2021 but won a point the following year. Absent again until this season and shaped better than on stable debut when mid-field in novice here (17.7f, good to soft) last month. Capable of better now handicapping.

    Verdict
    Hinted at ability in his 3 qualifying runs last season but tailed off both starts in handicaps, the latest at Ffos Las (23.9f, good to soft) in May. Remains lightly raced, though, and yard is going well ahead of return.

    Verdict
    Limited impact in trio of novice hurdles but did at least hint at ability when mid-field at Taunton (16.5f) in March. However, pulled up on chasing debut at the same course (23f, soft) when last seen in April. Others preferred back hurdling.

    Still looking for first success, but has been falling in the weights and wasn't seen to best effect when seventh of 12 at Worcester (20f, good, 14/1) 88 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Not discounted.

    Verdict
    Ran up to best when keeping on well for fourth in 13-runner handicap at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) in April. After 6 months off, possibly needed the run when pulled up at Worcester in October, so he could fare better upped in trip.

    Verdict
    Some encouragement in bumpers and has shown fair form on the Flat. Looked a work in progress first 3 starts over hurdles this season but hasn't improved in handicaps the last twice, pulled up in first-time cheekpieces at Southwell (20.4f, good) 25 days ago.

    Verdict
    Veteran who remains winless following 25 starts overall (Flat and jumps). Off for the best part of 4 years, entitled to have needed the run when down the field at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Still looks to be up against it.
