Verdict: A chance is taken that BACK FROM DUBAI leaves his latest Beverley effort behind him. His earlier AW win represents strong form.

Ravishing Beauty

Jockey: J Garritty Trainer: Jedd O'Keeffe Age/Wt: 4/9-12 F: 6-45442 OR: 56

7 tips

9/4

Comment: 12-race maiden; solid effort behind Little Ted at Leicester three weeks ago (1m, good to firm; cheekpieces first time) but a 2lb weights turnaround may not be sufficient to reverse the placings.

Little Ted

Jockey: D Allan Trainer: Tim Easterby Age/Wt: 8/9-12 F: 7-75341 OR: 56

2 tips

7/2

Comment: Responded well to pressure when beating Ravishing Beauty at Leicester three weeks ago (1m, good to firm); had more in hand than the winning margin on that occasion and a 2lb rise isn't excessive; this track hasn't brought out the best in him previously but he's still a serious contender.

Back From Dubai

Jockey: Oliver Stammers Trainer: Roy Bowring Age/Wt: 8/9-9 F: 722615 OR: 53

1 tip

7/2

Comment: Returned to Roy Bowring this year and he's won a couple of 9.5f handicaps at Wolverhampton, the latest off 2lb lower in May (strong form for the grade); not so good back on turf at Beverley last month but he'll be a danger to all if back to his recent best.

Space Raider

Jockey: Jordan Nason Trainer: Ivan Furtado Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 4-8555 OR: 57

2 tips

9/2

Comment: Best 2yo run (trained by Craig Lidster) came at this track (6f, good to soft); not quite hit the same heights for Ivan Furtado but he's dropping down the weights and this is weak; revival could be imminent.

Weegeebear

Jockey: Dylan Hogan Trainer: Rebecca Menzies Age/Wt: 3/9-0 F: 37047 OR: 52

11/1

Comment: Ex-Irish 3yo who has had plenty of racing, winning two of his 21 starts (the turf win over 1m on soft ground); not at his best in recent starts and makes his debut for Rebecca Menzies with a bit to prove.

Jockey: Aiden Brookes Trainer: Micky Hammond Age/Wt: 5/9-8 F: 079766 OR: 52

12/1

Comment: Dropped 26lb in the weights in six runs for new stable since February; perhaps the addition of blinkers will help but she's not a solid option in her current form.

Black Sky

Jockey: Joanna Mason Trainer: Michael & David Easterby Age/Wt: 3/8-8 F: 50-87 OR: 46

25/1

Comment: Unplaced in all eight starts (6f-1m) and his promising fifth at Newcastle (6f; November) hasn't been built on in three runs since; enough to prove back at a mile.
