Verdict

EM JAY KAY finished a close third at Newcastle just four days ago and may be able to resume winning ways with Billy Loughnane in the saddle. East Tyrone finally broke a long losing run when winning a classified stakes at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, though his tendency for slow starts remains a concern. Bluebells Boy returns to a C&D where previously successful off a workable mark.

Inconsistent performer who last won over 6f at Kempton in December. Finished fourth of 6 in a 7f handicap at Kempton (7/1) 3 days ago. The return to 6f could suit based on previous winning form.

Verdict
Had been in good heart recently with a narrow second at this course and two third places. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (2/1 favourite) 26 days ago, never going well from wide draw and merely closing up late. Returns to C&D where previously successful and step back up in trip could suit.

Verdict
Has hit the frame on his last two runs at 5f. Ran creditably when third of 6 in handicap at Newcastle (4/1) 4 days ago. Steps back up to 6f here and is one to note racing off last successful mark with Billy Loughnane taking over.

Verdict
Winless in 11 starts. Off 3 months prior to finishing sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (33/1) 15 days ago when hampered in final furlong. Wasn't seen to best effect that day and could be more competitive with a run under her belt.

Inconsistent performer with one placing, seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (33/1) 40 days ago when again running below form. Hood removed today but needs to improve.

Verdict
One-time winner who produced best effort for current yard when finishing fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 45 days ago. Without a win in 16 races but slowly returning to form after a difficult spell and could build on recent improvement.

Verdict
Showed nothing when last of 5 in first-time blinkers at Lingfield (5f, 80/1) 10 days ago and drops 5lbs for this step up in trip. Something to prove.

Verdict
Won a 6f classified stakes at Wolverhampton (18/1) 11 days ago, breaking a long losing run despite again dwelling at the start. Not an obvious one to follow up back in a handicap but could be in the mix if things all right.
