Ziggy's Avenger
Hasn't beaten many in three starts, but been gelded; open to improvement on handicap debut
8 2 C Poor Michael Bell 135 65 9/4
Open: 9/4
2
Deep Sleep (GB)
Well-held 12th at Thirsk on his return last month; lots more needed on his handicap debut
6 2 G Poor Tim Easterby 135 65 8/1
Open: 8/1
3
Paroda Diva (IRE)
13 races and has won just once (last May) but this first crack at 1m is worth a go
5 2 F AVG Patrick Neville 135 65 4/1
Open: 4/1
4
Karakula Dancer (GB)
Most consistent since returning in January, including a win over C&D; drawn widest, though
3 2 G AVG James Ferguson 134 64 4/1
Open: 4/1
5

Doubled her tally over C&D when winning here in March; respectable effort on turf latest

Likely to be better suited by switching to handicaps soon
2 3 F Poor Edward Bethell 130 60 13/2
Open: 13/2
7

Recent Southwell winner but disappointing there last time and looking hard to predict

Open: 18/1

Cobalt Comet
Close third on handicap debut in latest Southwell AW start; switches to turf
7 3 G Poor John Mackie 128 58 9/1
