Off the mark at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in May and second in two of his last three starts; latest at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) six days ago was just a six-runner race but it looks like he will be bang there again.

Got off the mark at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in May off 5lb lower; ran well at Catterick and back at Wolverhampton subsequently but found his latest race at Bath (1m, good) when 12th of 14 too competitive; this looks easier and he holds claims.

On the up when last seen, getting off the mark at Chelmsford (7f) in February and following up over the same C&D one month later; well drawn for a front-runner but she will need to be at her best back from 131 days off.

Off the mark at the ninth attempt (third run for this yard) when making all in a small-field C&D handicap four weeks ago; a 7lb rise isn't a gift but the runner-up has won twice since; well drawn to attack and she should give it another good go.

Made the breakthrough at Wolverhampton (7f, Class 6; 3-1) three weeks ago, the return to that track offered as a possible reason for the improved performance; slightly more needed over this stiff, straight 7f from a 6lb higher mark, but still one of the likeliest candidates.

Faced a stiff task on last September's Newbury debut for another yard and wasn't disgraced, but two subsequent efforts on Polytrack for this stable were modest; cheekpieces enlisted on handicap debut and improvement is required.
