Form & Verdict
His last two wins have come when making all in Class 6 handicaps at Kempton over 6f; yet to win on turf but he has gone well on fast ground in the past; Rossa Ryan booked and he should give it a good go from the front.

J: Amy Tucker

T: David Evans

Triple AW winner who made all on turf at Bath (5.6f, firm) in May but his form has nosedived in two subsequent runs; now only 1lb higher than for his last success but he's hard to predict and there are other front-runners in this line-up; down the list.

Prominent racer with two C&D wins on his record; not at his best at Bath in July but this track should see him in a better light; needs taking seriously.

J: Ryan Kavanagh

T: David Evans

His form has been up and down this year but he won at Kempton (6f, AW) in March and was back to his best when making all over this C&D (firm) in May; key player if at the top of his game after a 50-day break.

He has contested this race for the last four years, with form figures reading 1626; mostly running with credit this term and he narrowly prevailed at Newbury (6f, good to firm) five weeks ago; 3lb nudge shouldn't stop him being competitive under Billy Loughnane; player.

Four-time AW winner but 0-9 on turf; ran her best race on grass when second at Windsor 19 days ago (6f, good to firm) but there were no excuses and this is a higher grade.

All four wins have been on Polytrack at Lingfield (6f) but she lost her way during the summer and was laboured at her favoured track last month; has something to prove and she needs a major revival back on Tapeta.

Form & Verdict
Back on the up for Adam Kirby this spring, winning at Southwell (6f, AW) and Lingfield (5f, AW) as well as three second-place finishes; 0-16 on turf but effective on fast ground and this intermediate trip could be ideal.

Turf maiden winner who showed spark as recently as January (AW) and he's dropped down the weights; however, he's struggled on grass on his last two starts and a major turnaround is needed in first-time blinkers.

On a competitive mark on his best form and he's effective on soft ground; this lightly raced 4yo might have needed the run at Bath 16 days ago following a break but he's inconsistent and others are more compelling.
