Won handicap at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) in June; soundly beaten in Listed races (one here) on next two outings, and although coming from last to fourth in nine-runner Listed race at Haydock (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago was her best form, this new trip has to be a worry; hood enlisted.

Form & Verdict
Fairly strong in the market (sent off at 5-1) when second of nine at Ripon (1m, good to firm) last month, with fellow newcomer Edge Of Darkness (who has shown improved form since) in fourth; there can be optimism he will have benefited from that experience and he could play a major role.

Carries a 5lb penalty against some interesting rivals but, having been well backed, he was a convincing winner on debut at Catterick (7f, good to firm) in July; the second and third have both won since and it remains to be seen where his limitations lie; strong claims.

Form & Verdict
Inexperience evident when encouraging fourth on debut at Ripon (1m, good to firm) last month and he built on that when fourth of seven at Goodwood (1m, soft) a fortnight ago; in good hands to continue to progress and he's firmly in calculations here.

Well held after racing too freely at Haydock (11.6f) recently and now 0-20 but ran quite well when fourth under Lauren Frost on last month's stable debut at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm), and his jockey (three wins from 35 rides under rules) is by far the most experienced in this race.
