Age: 5|  Weight: 10-0| J: L Morris| T: R Harris| OR:  81| D
7/2
Narrow winner over this trip at Wolverhampton last time out. Carries a 6lb penalty for that win but a change of headgear there appears to have helped him turn a corner and he needs considering.

6/1
Five time winner over this trip on Polytrack, and form of recent races looks okay but he still needs to improve on finishing sixth over C&D last time out.

5/2
Hat-trick seeker who has won over C&D the last twice. Up a further 4lb but has been improving recently and holds obvious claims based on his excellent form here.

12/1
A winner at Ayr in August but that looks to have been a weaker race than this and is yet to win on an AW surface.

8/1
Attempt back up at 7f last time didn't work out so back down in trip here, but looks held on most of his recent form even over sprint distances.

7/2
Not disgraced in AW sprints the last twice, but still looks below the level of form achieved on both of his career victories to date.

11/1
Not always at her best since her most recent win earlier in the year, but now is almost back down to that last winning mark and a C&D fourth last time wasn't totally without merit.

Forecasts

You're Cool (5/2), Mr Pocket (7/2), Union Rose (7/2), Monumental Man (6/1), Juan Horsepower (8/1), Penny Dreadful (11/1), Rosina (12/1)

Verdict

YOU'RE COOL may have been raised another 4lb for winning over C&D (again) last time, but he has been showing plenty of improvement recently and it would be no surprise to see him progress again to overcome that rise in the weights in a race where many of the contenders have something to prove. However Penny Dreadful ran fairly well here last time and is starting to look on a suitable mark, while Union Rose isn't ruled out of defying a 6lb penalty for winning at Wolverhampton recently.
  1. You're Cool
  2. Penny Dreadful
  3. Union Rose
