Form & Verdict
Gained all ten wins at this track, the latest in 1m classified at start of this month; close second in handicap over that trip here (again on firm) a fortnight later and will be fine back over 1m2f but recent 4lb rise might leave this 8yo a shade vulnerable.

Fifth career win when 2l to the good over 1m1f at Lingfield in August (good to firm); just okay since then but he does stay this far and hard to dismiss.

Dual C&D winner (good to firm/firm) who was also successful at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) last month; backed that up with another solid effort at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) 19 days ago and is now 1lb lower; steps back up in trip with good claims.

Back in good form on last two outings, more recently when making all for clearcut success at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) ten days ago; evidently in good nick but enjoyed the run of the race there and is effectively 6lb higher under 5lb penalty here.

Now 2lb lower than when going close at Chepstow (1m, good) last month and will also be suited by today's longer trip but this regressive and inconsistent 6yo is on a long losing run, and his habit of starting slowly is always a worry.

Went close in Chepstow handicap (1m, good; fine over 1m2f) in June and has strong form claims here if judged on that performance but this regressive and inconsistent 6yo is on a long losing run, and his habit of starting slowly is always a worry; sports first-time cheekpieces; risky.

Keeps missing the break but he still went close two starts ago at Chepstow and it wasn't a bad run here last time, again over 1m; returning to further looks a good move.

Form & Verdict
Showed no significant promise as a 2yo (four runs; 6f-1m) and is out of the weights for this seasonal debut but had wind surgery in March and wouldn't be the first from her stable to show huge improvement once switched to a middle-distance handicap as a 3yo.
