Form & Verdict
Showed some ability in three AW maidens over 7f-8.6f last autumn, but tended to hang (not for the first time) when fifth of nine on last month's Newmarket handicap debut/reappearance (1m2f, good to firm); the longer trip should suit on breeding but she does have a bit to prove.

J: Dylan Hogan

T: Sir Mark Prescott Bt

Has form figures of 511 since handicapping, the wins at Goodwood (1m4f) and Yarmouth (1m6f); this Prescott filly is exactly the sort to carry on improving and defying the assessor; could well run up a sequence and accordingly warrants major respect.

Form & Verdict
Having been gelded he put up his best performance when third of ten on his reappearance/handicap debut here (1m2f, good) early last month, but didn't build on it when only sixth of 11 at Leicester (1m2f, good to soft) next time; needs to bounce back upped in trip.

He had been knocking on the door prior to his 10.4f win at Haydock last summer; not so good since but he should be sharper with his reappearance behind him and he is only 2lb higher than for the win; unexposed at 1m4f and respected back on turf.

0-6 but has run really well in his first three handicaps, most recently suited by the step up in trip when third of five at Goodwood (1m4f, good to firm); that could prove to be a warm little race and he's one to consider.

400,000euros yearling; all three starts at around 1m, finishing fourth at Nottingham (heavy) last October and again on this month's Leicester return (good to firm; first start since being gelded), albeit well behind the winner on both occasions; bred for this sort of trip on the dam's side and a player on handicap debut.

Headgear helped on AW last September-December, including for 1m6f/2m hat-trick; peak form was not repeated this year, including in two small fields this spring but they were at 1m3f/1m4f; returning to 2m should be a big help but none of his turf form (five races) approaches this mark.

Headgear helped last autumn, with him landing a hat-trick, including two over 2m round Southwell, latterly off a 4lb lower mark; solid effort there last Thursday, back from a few months off (1m3f), but he'll want a similarly strong pace this evening.

Won his last two starts for Ralph Beckett and completed the hat-trick here over 2m in November when visored for the first time on his debut for this stable; ran another good race when runner-up at Kempton (2m) next time but he was below his best 97 days ago; could bounce back on his first start since but this drop back in trip may not be ideal.

Not beaten far into fourth of seven on her second start here (1m, soft) last summer; well held in two outings over 1m2f since returning in April, including on handicap debut at Chelmsford (AW) this month; bred to appreciate this trip, though, and stable has landed four of the last seven runnings at 4-1, 10-1, 8-1 and 15-2.
