Giant (7.30 Kempton)

Tried at 6f without success last month by Richard Spencer but best figures have come over the extra furlong of this course and distance, including when beaten a head off 5lb higher in this race last year.

Eyecatcher

Probe (4.45 Chester)

Jennie Candlish's gelding caught the eye in a warm race at Newmarket and should appreciate the extra furlong here.

The Punt nap

Queen Of Thieves (2.35 Chester)

Took a big step forward last time, looking much fitter and appreciating the step up in trip. Much tougher test but has the profile to win races such as this and looks well drawn for Kieran Shoemark.

Speed figures

Liamarty Dreams (4.45 Chester)

Has tumbled down handicap since good spring campaign last year off higher marks, including decent fifth in hotter race at this meeting last year. Big player if returning to his best.

Dark horse

Cabelleroso (3.40 Chester)

Put in a respectable performance in Listed company on his latest outing and should find this an easier test. Step down in trip should suit too.
