ALSAKIB (3.00 York, nap)
He rose through the staying ranks last season and put in his best effort at this track. He ran well on his comeback in the Yorkshire Cup last month and can improve from there.
HOLD A DREAM (2.40 Sandown, nb)
He'll enjoy dropping to five furlongs after showing lots of pace at Newbury last time but just failing to get home. That was his turf comeback and there's more to come.
HEATHEN (2.25 York, treble)
He runs off a much lower mark on turf compared to the all-weather and can make the most of it under experienced pilot Serena Brotherton.

Diego Simeone, now 14 years and counting in the hotseat at the Wanda Metropolitano, is believed to be an admirer of Robbo's work and Romano wrote: "Atlético Madrid top target at left back is Andy Robertson, appreciated internally as ideal candidate. "Not an easy deal as Liverpool rate him highly even with Kerkez due to join the club soon. "Atléti have Robertson higher than Theo [Hernandez, of AC Milan] on their shortlist at LB so far." Only this week Robertson had admitted he wasn't sure what the future holds as he enters the final year of his career. He told SkySports: "We have discussed [my future], of course we have. "We've had good discussions, me and the club, but what the future holds, I'm not sure. "All I know is I fly off on holiday and it's well needed. I need a rest after a long season, and then I look forward to pre-season. That's all my focus is. "I can't look too far ahead, I never have done that so I'm not going to start doing that now. "I know the position I'm in, I know I've only got a year left. A lot's getting spoken about it, a lot's getting said, but my pure focus is focussing on being a dad for the next couple of weeks and enjoying that time with the kids. Fans 'knew Scotland were in trouble' after spotting Kieran Tierney and Andy Robertson's 3rd minute antics vs Germany "Then I'll try and come back in the best shape possible for pre-season, and then we'll see what the future holds when those decisions come."
