Made it 3-3 in cheekpieces when winning by 2l at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month and again ran well when a clear second under a penalty there (1m) last week; looks interesting off same mark here and he's a key player on this drop back in trip.

Form & Verdict
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.

Scored twice on Chelmsford's AW (7f) earlier in the year and she's run better than her finishing position suggests on her last two starts, hampered at Yarmouth in August and not getting a clear shot at it (also looked uncomfortable on the track) at Ripon last time; yard going well and she's interesting despite an outside stall.

Most of his form has been modest but he has run twice over C&D, finishing second in April and winning last month; not so good at Newcastle last time but the return to Wolverhampton should give him a lift.

Made the breakthrough when scoring at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) in June; well held in six subsequent runs, but he's had some traffic issues in two of his last three starts and his latest assignment was a tough task behind a handicap blot; now back on his winning mark and has possibilities if he gets the breaks.

Form & Verdict
Some promise on her racecourse debut last September (only run for the Muir/Grassick stable) but well beaten in three AW runs for Jonathan Portman over the winter; not a solid option starting out for another new stable after 165 days off, but worth a market check all the same.
