Form & Verdict
Opened his account at the sixth attempt in 7f Chepstow novice 30 days ago; that form has worked out well so he's not taken lightly back in handicap company.

J: Mark Winn

Good record on AW, winning at Kempton in February and a creditable third over 7f here last month; that latest effort suggests he'll need improvement for this first crack at 1m if he's to defy this mark.

Tailed off at Newbury three weeks ago but that was his first run on soft ground; had previously improved for cheekpieces on the AW, winning over 7f at Kempton then narrowly defeated on his return visit; could easily bounce back with Billy Loughnane booked.

J: Oisin Murphy

Had plenty of experience; has improved for cheekpieces on the AW this year, winning over 7f at Kempton then narrowly defeated there 23 days ago; now significantly higher than his handicap defeats on turf last year so there are question marks back on grass.

Form & Verdict
Holds solid claims on his 7f Chester nursery win in July but he's twice been well below that form since, only 13th in valuable sales event at Doncaster 20 days ago; he needs to get back on track.

Form & Verdict
Got off the mark in 6f Haydock novice in June but her more recent form is not so encouraging, only fifth of seven on her nursery debut at York (6f) 24 days ago; more is needed.
