Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden who has developed a habit of missing the break, so he did well to finish third of ten over 6f here last time (first start since being gelded); the longer trip should be within reach on breeding and market useful on return from three months off.

Form & Verdict
Has twice finished behind The Angelus Belle, but was only around a length behind her when third of eight on handicap debut over C&D seven days ago; needs to settle better than she did then, but she seems to be progressing and has every chance of reversing the placings on 6lb better terms; stable also runs Henzar.

Champagny

9st 9lb

J: Jonny Peate

T: Roger Fell

Made a promising start in handicaps when a close third at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) ten days ago but she failed to build on that when a well-held third of six there on Friday; still lightly raced but she didn't find a great deal last time and needs to resume her progress.

J: Jonny Peate

T: Roger Fell

Finished down the field at big prices in three novice events, most recently when tenth of 13 at Southwell (7f, Tapeta; 80-1) last month; this unexposed filly is a half-sister to a 1m AW winner but she needs a transformation upped to this trip on handicap debut.

Form & Verdict
Big prices and well held in three novices over 6f/7f here late last year; needs to improve on handicap debut, but that is possible and his pedigree suggests the longer trip should be within range; worth a market check.

0-12 and trail has gone cold again since June's Beverley half-length third (1m2f, good to firm), slower ground not necessarily at fault (fair fifth on soft in April); 1lb out of the handicap.

3 yo Filly

OR: 55

Form & Verdict
Has improved since being stepped up in trip, while the switch to cheekpieces from blinkers had an immediate impact when making it eighth-time lucky at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) nine days ago; 2lb wrong under her penalty, but a bigger concern is the drop back in distance.

Made her breakthrough (fifth attempt) with cheekpieces added in 1m Newcastle handicap last month; below that level at the same venue twice since but the fact she's a winner counts for something in this line-up.
