Form & Verdict
Posted an improved effort when getting off the mark at the sixth attempt at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) 18 days ago, beating a subsequent winner; a 4lb rise looks fair and he's open to further progress, albeit he does have his stamina to prove for this longer trip.

Won twice in midsummer for James Ferguson, including C&D; low-key stable debut last month but back on the up with his C&D second 17 days ago; Billy Loughnane retains the ride; considered.

Hit form on AW this summer for James Ferguson, winning at Newcastle (1m2f) in June, and followed up over C&D with Billy Loughnane on board the following month; not so good at Southwell last time on stable debut but may be worth another chance here.

Form & Verdict
Showed the benefit of a wind operation when winning a classified event at Windsor (1m4f, good to soft) last month and backed that up with a good second behind an in-form rival at Ayr (1m5f, soft); acts on the AW and she makes the shortlist on this return to handicap company.

Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish filly who has been in good form since stepping up in trip, winning at Chepstow (1m2f, good to firm) before following up at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago; up 3lb for that latest success but she leaves the impression this trip will suit and could well complete the hat-trick.

J: David Probert

T: David Flood

Has first attempt at 2m today and trying 1m6f on two of her last three starts didn't work out, after two wins at 1m2f and one at 1m4f earlier this summer; with a major doubt about her effectiveness on ground softer than good as well, she may be up against it.

Has won three of her last seven starts, showing improved form for stepping up to 1m4f at Ffos Las in August; failed to follow up when 4lb well in and this new mark perhaps a factor when fourth at Salisbury, though that was over 1m6f; should run well.

Ridden by Finlay Bassett on last eight outings; sole win from 17 starts came on her handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in December; runner-up on three of her next four starts, including here, but not so good in recent races and needs to perk up again.
