Course win (5f, good) last July; arrives in top form, winning Class 5 events at Bath and Newbury (5f, firm and good to firm) this summer; 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Ran twice over C&D last summer and performed with great credit on both occasions, finishing second to Faustus in July and filling the same position one month later; career-best effort when winning at Bath last week (5f, firm); penalty demands more but he can't be discounted.

Running well in turf handicaps this summer, following his success at Windsor (5f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time) with a good second (winner gone in again since) at Bath (5f, firm) two weeks later; up in grade but could well have more to offer.

Ultra-consistent, straightforward 5f specialist who's fine over an undulating track (C&D winner last June; two of these behind); handicapper knows where he is but having 7lb claimer Alexandra McDonnell (ridden three winners for the yard) up won't hurt.

Front-runner; 0-11 on turf but he's been placed at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and Bath (5.7f, firm) this spring and ran another good race when a close fourth at Bath 11 days ago; should give it another good shot and he's in the mix back up in trip.
