Verdict

RIGHT AND EXACT boasts easily the least exposed profile of these and displayed a fine attitude second time up this year when scoring at Thirsk 3 weeks ago. The runner up that day has tasted success since and he's very much of interest again despite a potentially difficult draw to navigate from. Tiva, following her good Hamilton second, rates next best, ahead of Woohoo and Miss Brazen.

2	Low-mileage 4-y-o who wasn't seen to best effect on C&D reappearance in April and he took a sizeable step forward to land a 17-runner Thirsk handicap (5f) 3 weeks ago, showing a fine attitude to get up late. Second that day has scored since and he's of definite interest again. 1st Pick 2 Right And Exact Jockey: Zak Wheatley Trainer: Declan Carroll J: Zak Wheatley T: Declan Carroll	100	-	-	-	34%

1	Back-to-back winner of 5f handicaps in August who was highly tried thereafter but showed benefit of comeback run with visor/tongue tie refitted when second at Hamilton (5f) 9 days ago. Should go well again from unchanged mark. 2nd Pick 1 Tiva (Ire) Jockey: Daniel Tudhope Trainer: David O'meara J: Daniel Tudhope T: David O'meara	98	-	-	-	17%

7	Proved all the better for her reappearance when quickening up well to score over C&D in April. Posted a good fourth at Hamilton next time and may well have been disadvantaged by where she raced at Thirsk (5f) last time. Still appeals as being on a workable mark. 3rd Pick 7 Woohoo (Ire) Jockey: Lauren Young Trainer: Jim Goldie J: Lauren Young T: Jim Goldie	98	-	-	-	34%
