Narrowly beat Individualism when winning over C&D off 2lb lower in June (good to firm); excuses for two lesser runs since (soft ground; too free); contender.

Soft ground provides an excuse for below-par effort last time; solid record (1333121) otherwise for current stable and gained the most recent success, at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm), in game fashion; remains of interest.

J: Darragh Keenan

T: James Owen

In very good form since being upped to 1m2f, which continued when he won at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last month; it's a long time since he ran well on slow ground but he's in the mix if the surface isn't an issue.

Form & Verdict
Improved his RPR with each of his three runs at two and he took a good step forward with an impressive success in a 1m novice at Lingfield six weeks ago, making the running and coming home over 3l in front of nine rivals; that form has already been well franked and he makes his handicap debut with further improvement in him.

Four wins over 1m, including off this mark and 4lb higher, for previous yard; couple of encouraging efforts for new stable, keeping-on second over 1m2f at Doncaster (good to firm) latest; nicely handicapped and is unexposed at this trip; interesting contender.

Won four times over 1m for Andrew Balding, the latest at Kempton in February; has not fared quite as well since but beaten just under 2l when sixth of nine in a Redcar handicap (1m, good to firm) on stable debut last week; didn't seem to stay on only run over this trip.

3 yo Gelding

OR: 96

Form & Verdict
Three wins in novice company as a 2yo (6f to 7.5f) and he also won a 6f Hamilton nursery in August off a 6lb lower mark; ended his 2yo campaign with a couple of fine efforts over 7f but he will need further progress for today's new, longer trip if he is to come out on top.

All four wins were last summer, beaten nine times this season but there has been the occasional good run and he's becoming well handicapped; goes on good to soft but anything softer would be a worry; gets new blinkers.

Four-time winner but now exposed and had no excuses from a good position when fifth here last week (1m, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces); best form is at shorter.

14/1

Form: 83-111 C

Last run: 18 days

3 yo Colt

OR: 78

Form & Verdict
Has returned from a break an improved performer, rattling off a quick Tapeta hat-trick (1m at Newcastle twice and the extended 1m1f here); on the up but he will need further progress to beat today's classier opponents off his revised mark.
