All four Flat wins on the AW and had far inferior figures on turf; stamina wouldn't be guaranteed for hurdling.

J: Mr Henry Callan

All four wins on AW; sole turf run came when last of five at Bath (1m, firm) in May but he won at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) three weeks later; beat one home at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last time and he needs to prove stamina and effectiveness on grass; would be a first winner for rider Henry Callan.

Blinkers have helped, with three wins from the front already this year, and proved his stamina over this far at Wolverhampton last time; landed another wide stall today and this is tougher, upped another 3lb, but he enters calculations.

Turf winner and placed several times on AW for previous yard; couple of unconvincing efforts for new stable but may prove resurgent now dropped to Class 6 off a reduced mark.

Turf winner at 6f; maiden on AW and below best in two AW handicaps at this trip but he's dropped a few pounds since making his yard debut and remains of interest on autumn form with Rossa Ryan up for the first time.

6 yo Filly

Form & Verdict
Regressive RPRs since October; however, she's the sole C&D winner in this field and has a good chance off current mark granted a resurgent display; overall AW record is 3-22.

Form & Verdict
Well handicapped on best turf form; 0-4 on AW but looked a non-stayer over 1m2f most recently (debut for new yard); possibilities provided he takes well to first-time cheekpieces.

Can race freely and has done a lot of his racing over shorter, often in headgear, but proved this trip is within range on his Windsor comeback in May; below that level twice since though.

Now 8lb higher than when successful over C&D (good to soft) in October; not at his best at Newbury (1m, good) last time, but his previous narrow defeat on his Windsor reappearance (1m2f, good to firm) suggested this sort of mark was within reach; shortlisted.
