RABY MERE looks capable of even better and is taken to defy the handicapper again. Palm Beach is a potentially dangerous opponent if a switch to the Ben Pauling yard helps to spark a revival. Top Flight Century shaped quite well on his 2m course handicap debut last month and also makes the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Resumed his progress when a very good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (21f, good) in May but blotted his copybook when running out at the second last over 2m here since (in contention for a place at time).

    Verdict
    Made it 2-3 for current yard when accounting for 8 rivals at Uttoxeter (2½m, good) 19 days ago. Looks capable of better so a further 7 lb rise may not stop him for a leading yard which does well here.

    Verdict
    Made an inauspicious start to her handicap career with cheekpieces added (quickly discarded) when pulled up at Newcastle (17f, good to soft) in December. Showed promise in her qualifying runs and one to note in the betting back from a break with Brian Hughes on board.

    Verdict
    Sharpened up by cheekpieces when winning Musselburgh handicap (2½m, good to soft) in February. Back on form in a change of headgear (visored) when second over C&D in May but well held at Hexham since.

    Fair hurdler earlier in his career. Largely struggled last season but is well handicapped if a switch to Ben Pauling sparks a revival. One to monitor closely in the betting.
