Lethal Nymph
A wide-open event that could set up perfectly for LETHAL NYMPH and Ventura Express, who may well land a 1-2 for the Paul Midgley yard. First-time cheekpieces are added in a bid to remedy Squealer's tardy starts, and he's dangerously well handicapped, while Equity Law is expected to go well from stall 1.

Back on the same mark as when winning a similar event to this at Doncaster last September. Shaped better than beaten distance when a well-backed fifth in a big-field York handicap last time and with the drop back in trip set to suit, he can open his account for the season.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosYork6fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat5/21York5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat8/16York5fGoodFlat4/21Ascot5fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat10/17Pontefract5f 3yGood to SoftFlat6/13- 4(9)Reigning ProfitJ: James SullivanE: Ruth Carr-578520Âge 711/211/25/1

4-time C&D winner probably found the race coming too soon when well held in a better race at York last time and should be more competitive on the back of a 4-week break.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosYork5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat10/16Hamilton Park5f 7yGoodFlat2/13Musselburgh5f 1yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat5/12Pontefract5f 3yGood to SoftFlat8/13Newcastle5fStandardFlat7/12- 9(1)Equity LawJ: David AllanE: Tim Easterby-633602Âge 511/211/26/1

A winner twice in slightly lower grades last year, he bounced right back to form when runner-up in softer-than-ideal conditions at Catterick and makes appeal from 3 lb below his latest successful mark.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosCatterick Bridge5fGood to SoftFlat2/7Thirsk5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat15/17Thirsk5fGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat6/17Thirsk5fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat3/10Ripon5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat3/8- 6(8)SquealerJ: Rowan ScottE: Nigel Tinkler00-6905Âge 615/215/28/1

Isn't the easiest to win with and again hindered his chance at the start when fifth of 9 in a higher grade at Doncaster latest. First-time cheekpieces could sharpen him up, though, and he's undoubtedly well treated on last season's form.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosDoncaster5f 3yGood to FirmFlat5/9York5fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat13/16Thirsk5fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat9/10Beverley5fGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat6/10York5fGoodFlat16/18- 1(3)GoyardJ: Daniel TudhopeE: David O'Meara21185-Âge 48/17/115/2

£115,000 Mehmas gelding who won back-to-back races at Ripon but looked too high in the weights in a pair of handicaps last autumn.

4-time C&D winner who extended a long losing run when fourth of 10 in a class 5 C&D handicap last time, however, he remains on a handy mark and should find this run to suit.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosPontefract5f 3yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat4/10Beverley5fGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat4/7Beverley5fGoodFlat5/9Newcastle5fStandardFlat3/6Newcastle5fStandardFlat6/8- 8(4)D FlawlessJ: Jason HartE: Paul Midgley07-3614Âge 511/111/112/1

Wore first-time hood when landing first success for current yard at Newcastle. Ran respectably in her follow-up bid when fourth over 6f here following a 10-week break, though yard's other runners better fancied.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosPontefract6fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat4/8Newcastle6fStandardFlat1/9Newcastle5fStandardFlat6/11Southwell4f 214yStandardFlat3/9Newcastle5fStandardFlat7/10- 2(7)Hiya MaiteJ: Lewis EdmundsE: Roy Bowring62662-4Âge 812/112/111/1

On a long losing sequence but he has a solid record in class 4 company, latterly when beaten by less than a length at Southwell in early-January, having arguably gone off a shade too hard.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosSouthwell4f 214yStandardFlat4/9Southwell4f 214yStandardFlat2/9Southwell6f 16yStandardFlat6/13Catterick Bridge5fGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat6/11Leicester5fGood to SoftFlat2/10- 10(2)South ParadeJ: Cam HardieE: Richard & Peter Fahey9-00074Âge 514/114/112/1

Made a slow start to this year but she wasn't seen to best effect when fourth of 7 at Hamilton on her latest start (raced solo) and has fallen a long way in the weights since winning in similar company at Thirsk last summer.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosHamilton Park5f 7yGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat4/7Ripon5fGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat7/8Thirsk5fGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat12/17Musselburgh5f 1yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat12/12Musselburgh5f 1yGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat16/17- Non-partants
