3yo whose three wins have all been on soft ground over 1m1f/1m2f, the most recent at Beverley two weeks ago; now 4lb higher and may not want the ground to dry out much, but there could still be more to come from this progressive sort; Oisin Murphy takes over in the saddle.

J: Conor Whiteley

T: Hugo Palmer

He recorded two soft-ground wins (1m1f/1m2f) in June and wasn't discredited over further on AW in two subsequent starts; stiff 1m2f might be his gig and any rain would be a bonus; interesting.

Form & Verdict
Winner over 1m at Bath on soft last autumn and returned to the same venue to double his tally on reappearance (good to firm); a wide trip provides a possible excuse for a lesser effort at Windsor since (Fans Favourite ahead of him).

Triple turf winner who bounced back with a creditable second behind an unexposed improver at Salisbury (1m2f, soft) two weeks ago; now returns to AW but he's unexposed in this sphere and has claims if he can repeat that latest form.

J: Harry Davies

T: Jonathan Portman

Generally progressive 3yo who held on narrowly at Nottingham (1m1f, good to firm) in July, his third win, and was second off today's mark at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) soon afterwards; big player if able to bounce back quickly from below-par run a fortnight ago.

Spent last year sprinting and is having a first try over this far (won over 8.3f here in the spring off 3lb lower); didn't get going until too late in a small field last time (1m) but stamina would be the concern.

Form & Verdict
Third around 1m at Nottingham (good) and Yarmouth (good to firm) switched to handicaps this spring; below the level of those efforts on soft ground last year but it was his debut; has a useful pedigree and too soon to suggest he's reached his limit.

Stepped up on reappearance when third of ten over 1m at Windsor (good to firm) a fortnight ago, although he faded inside the final furlong and this sometimes keen goer wouldn't be sure to benefit from this slightly longer distance.

Supplemented last year's AW win with straightforward success at Newmarket (1m, good); a 4lb rise shouldn't be too damaging and encouraging that he can cope with undulations (unraced here).

Sometimes races a bit too freely but ran well before fading into fourth over C&D (good) in June and returns here after keeping on well for second in tactical race at Ffos Las (1m, good) ten days ago; still on a workable mark; might be the answer.

Tough to argue his opening mark is generous on bare form but he's more than hinted at ability and appeals as a potential improver back from a 100-day break.
