Fairly useful 1m handicapper who has a particularly good record at Pontefract, winning three times; respectable third back there on latest start; has the ability to play a big role.

Fifth of 18 in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) and a chance on that effort; following run perhaps came too soon and last time he had to deal with heavy ground; 3-4 at this track, he's a serious player.

Better than ever on last two starts when winning comfortably at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) and a close third at Goodwood (1m2f, soft); ground firmer than good would be a concern.

Record of 0-13 since hat-trick last season but he is in a consistent vein of form, having been placed over 1m1f/1m2f in last five runs, latest at Ayr (soft); solid chance, despite dropping back in trip; has won over C&D.

Has a record of 0-12 since hat-trick last season and is suffering from seconditis at present but wouldn't need much improvement to go one better; ran creditably, beaten only 1l, at Chester (1m2f, soft) last Saturday; in the mix.

Dual turf winner who last scored when bagging a 1m2f AW handicap just under a year ago; now 5lb lower but that's still the same mark he was beaten just over 4l at Beverley 10 days ago; likely needs to find a bit extra.

Carried himself awkwardly but was well on top at the finish in a spring handicap at Haydock (1m2f, good to soft) when last seen and the form has received several boosts; this low-mileage 3yo is open to further progress and warrants respect, especially if the market speaks favourably.

Reserve; clear promise before he justified 5-4 favouritism in 11-runner handicap at Haydock (1m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago, travelling much the smoothest before he carried his head awkwardly but still drew just over 3l clear; dam French 12.5f winner; up 7lb but still brings potential.

Won a Newbury novice (7f, good to soft) for Richard Hannon last September but that was a shock at 125-1 and he's not gone on from that in three handicaps since, including two for new yard around 7f at the start of the summer; a three-month break needs to have had a reviving effect.
