Form & Verdict
Won two 6f novices here last autumn; his 3yo campaign hasn't been a progressive one but he shaped quite nicely in a Racing League race here (6f) on yard debut in July and can be forgiven a soft-ground defeat since; stamina query over new trip but he might get away with it at this modest level.

Won a modest 8.6f seller at Wolverhampton last September; not so good since and he'll need to be at his best to take this; is at least unexposed at the trip.

Form & Verdict
Untested on Tapeta but won 1m novice on Polytrack as 2yo; best handicap form this year when close third of five at Newmarket (1m2f) in August, despite hanging left, and she has a better chance in this seller than at Goodwood last time; back down in trip; good chance.

Made a promising debut last August (7.6f, good to soft) but that remains his standout effort and he has finished down the field in two handicap runs this summer; sold out of Michael Bell's yard for 1,500gns in July; new yard have made their name reviving stock from elsewhere so he's one to note on his stable debut; hood joins the blinkers today.

Has failed to back up debut effort and a switch to handicap level made no difference last time (1m2f); chance largely depends on whether first-time headgear prompts improvement.
