Form & Verdict
Most wins over 6f but the latest two have come over 5f and this is the first time he's run over C&D since the January success; respectable effort behind one who was ahead of his mark at Chelmsford on Thursday and primed for a good effort on third run back from break.

J: Connor Planas

T: Phil McEntee

All wins at 6f up to two years ago but last five successes at 5f, most recently off much the same mark at Wolverhampton before Christmas; has beaten a total of two rivals in his last three starts, however, so more needs to be done back at 6f; cheekpieces refitted in place of a visor.

5 yo Colt

OR: 55

Form & Verdict
Speedy in Ireland when winning three on AW, over 6f and 5f, and the return to Polytrack suited when he made all in a Chelmsford classified (5f) in August; off since, back up 8lb and he lacks experience of Tapeta but he won after a break in Ireland and could be hard to peg back.

He has made giant strides for this yard, winning four handicaps since August (two over C&D); solid efforts in defeat on his last two starts but Alondra scooted past him here 24 days ago and he will need to raise his game a level to resume winning ways.

Form & Verdict
Has form on Tapeta but her win came on Lingfield Polytrack (5f) in April and she seemed to reach her peak that day; wasn't far away back there last month but not in the same form at Southwell since (first-time cheekpieces, now discarded) and seems rather becalmed now.
