Gelded after his debut run and showed the benefit when overcoming a troubled passage to win at Newcastle (7f); the second went close next time; might be found out by a penalty but fully entitled to improve some more.

Fairly useful on the Flat at his best; held in second when odds-on for hurdling debut at Hexham (2m, good) but he built on that when trouncing two rivals at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) last week; could have a lot more to offer in this sphere and he's respected under a penalty.

Fairly useful on the Flat at his best; unable to justify odds-on favouritism when second of six on recent hurdling debut at Hexham (2m, good; winner beaten since) but ought to have learned from that experience and might be better suited by this easier track.

Productive on the Flat (best RPR 82), with plenty to admire about the manner in which he applied himself going down to King Of Berkshire at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) on penultimate start; trainer/jockey supplied the wide-margin winner of this (One Horse Town) last year; looks the one to beat.

0-10 but he has regularly been placed and is running well this season, including when beaten 2l for fourth of five at Sandown (1m1f, good) four weeks ago; yard in fine form and he's got each-way claims again.

Debut was apparently much her best form in five-race 2yo career; needs to turn things around dramatically on this seasonal debut with first-time headgear and new trip, and some stamina can be found in her pedigree.
