Form & Verdict
Showed ability on his first two starts last year and heavy ground can be blamed for a poor run at Goodwood in September; beat only one rival home on his handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f, good; first start since being gelded) but that was his reappearance, and his pedigree suggests this longer trip could suit; cheekpieces added.

Made all when winning in first-time cheekpieces for Andrew Balding at Chepstow two months ago (subsequently picked up for 20,000gns); much his best effort to date on AW debut last time (Polytrack) but has paid for that with a 7lb rise; needs more again.

Scored for Andrew Balding at Chepstow (1m4f, good to firm) last month in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) and subsequently sold for 20,000gns; has run well at Sandown and Ascot for new stable and should go well on AW debut.

Form & Verdict
Won a handicap at Pontefract (1m, soft) in October off a mark 4lb lower than today's but he's been below that level in two starts this year, latest at Sandown (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; steps up in trip with stamina to prove.

Winless this season but he comes here in good form, not enjoying a smooth passage with fourth of six in 1m3f seller at Goodwood last month; very much one to consider from his low berth.

His nursery win (sole success) was on soft so the recent rain is welcomed; downgraded from running in Ascot handicaps in his last two races.

Form & Verdict
Showed improved form in first-time blinkers when a good second at Salisbury (1m2f, good) in May and he's posted two respectable efforts since, albeit he didn't look to relish this the step up to this trip at Newmarket two weeks ago; first-time cheekpieces replace blinkers.

Best effort for Brian Meehan came over 1m2f (managed second) and was last seen stretching out to 1m4f; changed hands for 14,000gns this month; this won't take much winning and a positive market move would look significant; goes without headgear.
