Form & Verdict
Won two novice events (1m2f) as a 2yo but he's 0-10 in handicaps and has been well held in his three runs this season; mark continues to fall but he has plenty to prove at this new trip.

Curran

9st 7lb

J: Oliver Searle

T: Rod Millman

Has a patchy profile but he hasn't been with current yard for long and he won at Bath (1m6f, good) last month; only sixth of seven here (2m) last time but he ran well for a long way and was beaten less than 4l; still looks on a workable mark and he could make a bold bid back in trip.

Ex-Charlie Johnston for whom he finished third in this last year (2lb higher); joined Rod Millman for 6,000gns; tailed off on yard debut but always in the van when battling on best at Bath (1m6f, good); only 2lb higher but he's up into a Class 4 now.

Form & Verdict
Two wins last season, the latter by a nose at Kempton (2m); placed off today's mark at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) on reappearance in April but he's finished down the field at Chester and Chelmsford since; turf record now stands at 1-13 and others are more persuasive.

Won over 2m (good) here in June and the saddle slipped on his return visit the following month; can probably forgive him his Ascot run as well as that was a Class 3; could find this trip on the tight side, though.

Tailorman

J: William Buick

Had an excuse (saddle slipped, eased) last time when bidding for a Chester double; well suited by 2m but remains on career-high mark and this is a better grade than he usually runs in; difficult task.

4 yo Filly

OR: 71

Form & Verdict
Unexposed 4yo who started her handicap career with a rallying third of 13 at Newbury (1m4f, good) three weeks ago; was just behind Percy Jones in that race and she looks open to more progress over this longer trip; interesting contender for in-form yard.

Fair stayer on the Flat for James Fanshawe; in this new headgear combination, she won comfortably at Wincanton (1m7f, good) and should progress some more.

Showed ability without winning for James Fanshawe and stayed 1m6f; never counted on her hurdling debut here (good to soft; 28-1) and a tongue-tie now joins the regular hood; could fare better.

No wins but seven placings from eight Flat starts at up to 1m6f for James Fanshawe (peak RPR 77); no successful converts to hurdling in the immediate pedigree, but in good hands and won't fail for stamina.

6 yo Gelding

OR: 72

Form & Verdict
His three wins have been over 1m4f, 1m6f and 2m at Wolverhampton; record of 0-17 on turf but he reappeared with a good second at Newbury (1m4f, good; La Cadalora third) last month; looks interesting if he can back that up and he's versatile ground-wise.

All four wins have been at Wolverhampton (1m4f-2m) and latest was 11 months ago; finished a close third off 1lb higher at Bath (1m6f, good) last month but he's not easy to predict and was well held with cheekpieces tried at Chester last time; the headgear is quickly discarded but he comes with risks attached.

Form & Verdict
Four wins for David O'Meara last year, with one over C&D (good to firm) and the other three at 2m; never involved on stable debut at York last month but that was over 1m4f and she's now only 1lb higher than for last win; could be dangerous back up in trip but any rain would be a concern.

J: Cam Hardie

Won four times for David O'Meara last year (1m6f-2m) but has been out of form for new stable this season and is not sure to be ideally suited by today's drop back in trip; considered only if lively in the betting.

Four wins for David O'Meara last year (2m/1m6f), two on Tapeta, and she's on a competitive mark on her best form; the step back up in trip may help but she's not easy to fancy judged on this year's two runs.
