Handicappers' nap

Good And Hardy (1.10 Uttoxeter)

Faces tougher opposition than when scoring over course and distance last week, but should be hard to beat off the same mark.

Newmarket nap

Global Esteem (5.30 Wolverhampton)

Gay Kelleway holds this youngster in some esteem and he ran well to be third on his debut at Leicester in the autumn. The son of Kodiac has since impressed on the Al Bahathri.
David Milnes

West Country nap

Saint De Reve (3.05 Ascot)

Makes handicap bow and has conditions in his favour. He can follow up his recent win at Wincanton.
Andrew King

Eyecatcher

Bard Of Brittany (2.20 Uttoxeter)

Made a promising start for his new stable when second last time and can go one better here.

Ace Tipster

Sully D'Oc AA (1.55 Ascot)

Could do nothing relative to the winner at Newbury last time, but can improve again on this slightly easier assignment off the same mark.
Keith Melrose

Speed Figures

Kozier (3.05 Ascot)

Made a highly encouraging return from a lengthy absence at Exeter five weeks ago and from the foot of the weights this lightly raced five-year-old can get off the mark.
Dave Edwards

Irish angle

Big Gossey (4.45 Dundalk)

Pacey sort who improved for each of his first two outings and was unlucky to be denied at the third attempt here last time.

Spotlight nap

Directory (2.45 Southwell)

Ran out an impressive winner in May on his only visit here and remains unexposed on this surface.

Dark horse

Mister Freeze (4.20 Southwell)

Dual course winner who failed to justify favouritism last time. That was over a mile and today's step back in trip, and the likely strong pace look sure to suit.
