Form & Verdict
Son of Highland Reel, out of a French Listed winner; built on his promising debut when third at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) in April but he flopped on the step up to 1m2f at Ripon (soft) last time; has something to prove after that but he's been gelded since and is a big player if he can recapture his penultimate form.

Gelded prior to readily making all in novice event at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) in June and improved again when second of 13 on handicap debut at York (1m2f, good to soft), again front running; in the right hands to keep up the momentum.

Form & Verdict
Runner-up in middle-distance events on Polytrack in all of his three runs this spring, including a near miss over 1m2f here on his penultimate run; now switches to turf but he's a half-brother to a fast-ground winner and is strongly respected for in-form yard.

Only sixth in his first two handicaps (1m/1m2f) but well backed last time and he'd previously run well in novices at up to 1m4f; it's possible today's step back up in trip will be a positive and he's not written off.

Runner-up in first four starts over 1m2f/1m4f on Polytrack/turf, but took a step backwards when sixth of eight on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good) last time; has undergone wind surgery since and the return to a longer trip should suit; shortlisted.

Found plenty of progress when a clearcut winner at Brighton (1m, good to firm; 9-2) on her return last month on second start; this is tougher under a penalty but she was strong at the finish last time and is open to more progress on her step up to this trip.

0-11 in handicaps and seemingly not quite as good as she was last year, but front-running third of six with first-time blinkers at Haydock (1m2f, heavy) last time gives her a place chance.

0-9 in handicaps and didn't step up from a promising return/stable debut at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) in April, but she is 5lb lower than when second of 14 here (1m4f) in August last year; could play a part if the return to this track reinvigorates her.

Form & Verdict
Ran green when sixth of ten at Newbury (1m, soft) on his debut in April and he found improvement when a close second of five at Brighton (1m, firm) 11 days ago; needs another step forward on this step up in trip but he has stamina on his dam's side and is open to more improvement.
