Ten go to post for this competitive five-furlong sprint. Timeform rate the runners.
Decider is an inconsistent front runner but is effective on fibresand and produced a good effort when second here to Argentine on his penultimate start.
Little Eden won on his debut over course and distance 12 months ago. He was runner-up in a Musselburgh handicap on his only other start. He goes well fresh, so the long absence is not necessarily a problem. Market should guide.
Whozart has been running quite well here of late. The return to the minimum distance should suit, and first-time blinkers could sharpen him up further.
Rocketball is still a maiden, and didn't look altogether straightforward when fourth to Argentine over course and distance earlier this month.
Trinculo is not the force of old and his attitude makes him one to take on most of the time.
Argentine won for the first time since July 2006 over course and distance last time out, beating Decider by a neck. He is none too consistent and 3-lb higher, so is far from certain to follow up.
Spirit of Coniston is fully effective under conditions and his latest run when third to Argentine and Decider over course and distance was another fair effort.
Mujma shed his maiden tag at 17th time of asking over this trip at Lingfield last time. He acts on fibresand too, but is irresolute and 5-lb higher, so may have to settle for a place.
Tenacious is an ex-Italian mare who was fourth in a seller at Livorno on her only start in 2008.
Handsinthemist had been off for six months, but took well to fibresand when a neck second to Grimes Faith in a seller here on Sunday. She has every chance given a strict reproduction of that effort.

This looks a good opportunity for Vertigo On Course, a fast-finishing third at Southwell last week. Young Dottie's success last month is working out well and she also makes appeal, while each-way players could do worse than side with Toolentidhaar....

Despite being the senior citizen of the party, Mister Nous retains plenty of ability, and having won five times in France appears ready to open his British account. The Rainbow Hunter could be more deadly now switched to handicaps and looks a big threat to the selection, with Strategic Plan rated third best....

Jim Tango is open to improvement over fences, and this looks to be Miss Pross' easiest task for some time, but the likeable Bamby gets the nod with conditions to suit back over fences....
