Form & Verdict
Well down the field at Lingfield (1m, AW) last month and has now been unplaced all 11 starts for current stable; drops back in trip and swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers here; considered only if conditions become very testing (has won on heavy ground).

All three wins on turf came on soft/heavy; it's been a while since his last success but he may be able to exploit this plummeting mark when he gets his conditions.

Last two wins have come over C&D and he is 13lb lower than for the latest in May 2024 (0-24 since); has won fresh in the past and has run well on good to firm ground, but a softer surface suits him better.

Form & Verdict
In good form on AW this spring and has continued the good work on turf this summer, most recently when third at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) on Wednesday; ground any slower than good would be new to him but he can cope with today's drop back in trip and features prominently in calculations; swaps cheekpieces for first-time visor.

Two of her three wins have come at this track and on soft ground; she hasn't beaten a rival in her two starts this season but they were on quick ground and she could prove a different proposition following the recent rain; handy mark and rider's claim useful too.
