Record of 0-5 since debut win (AW) and has failed to progress since handicapping; chance depends on how well he reacts to blinkers (replacing cheekpieces worn the last twice).

Made a winning debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) in November but he's not really gone on from that and was only fourth of six on handicap debut at Beverley (1m2f, good; first run since gelded) last month; still early days but he needs improvement with headgear added at this new trip.

4yo filly whose two wins came last spring in a Southwell maiden (1m4f, AW) and Chester handicap (1m4f, good); struggled on soft ground in a 1m6f Listed race at Musselburgh this April and although she ran well when Listed fourth over 1m3f at Baden-Baden (good to soft) four weeks ago, she faded and didn't look to be crying out for this far; has a bit to find.

Maiden and front-running handicap winner last spring, who found her one Group and two Listed assignments much harder afterwards but those were her best form; all those were at about 1m4f but her second from off the pace at Toulouse on final outing gave hope for this longer trip; improvement needed.

Kept to AW for her first five starts and she won three of them, including handicaps at Kempton over this sort of trip in the spring; weak in the market when beaten 7l into second on her turf debut at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) three weeks ago but maybe this drop back down in trip can assist.

A rising force who is 3-5 on AW overall and won 1m3f/1m4f handicaps at Kempton on her two starts this season; both were by a neck and, despite her pedigree, she now looks worth a go at 1m6f after the good scrap last time; up 5lb but turf debut may ask the bigger question.
