Verdict: It is hard to get away from WALL STREET MAGIC. She looks best placed to take advantage if the front-runners go too fast and put in an eyecatching run last time out. Jammer Insurance, Ruby's Hot Lips and Miss Teca should also be taken seriously.

Comment: Comfortably beaten despite finishing runner-up in a claimer last month on debut for this trainer; a long time since his last win; claiming value now drops to $10k; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and may be vulnerable.

Comment: Form has been a bit mixed lately and could be at the extent of his ability; fair effort when beaten 7l, finishing sixth of ten in a claimer at Charles Town 12 days ago; claiming value now rises to $10k; his best looks to be behind him and not one to rely on.

Comment: Ran encouragingly when just over 4l runner-up in a claimer at Belterra Park with Ho Ho Ho Lets Go just behind last month; lightly raced (running for just the fourth time); has strong claims as jockey's C&D record from low draws is useful and lower claiming tag suggests she may have less on her plate here.

Comment: Went off 40-1 when good runner-up in a claimer on debut for this handler four weeks ago; winner of eight races (5f-7f) and useful in his prime; poses a threat given recent reappearance at Mountaineer Park will have blown away the cobwebs and lots of promise in his latest performance.
