Two wins this year, latest when making just about all at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last month with three of today's rivals behind; only 1lb higher but may face competition for the lead and consistency hasn't been his strong point.

1lb higher than when runner-up in a division of this race last year; returned to winning form at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in June and beaten less than 2l when third of nine behind Dogged at Nottingham (1m2f, good) last month; 1lb better off and shouldn't be far away; stable also runs Sameem.

Form & Verdict
Front-runner who won twice here (8.5f/1m2f) last September and got back on the scoresheet at Pontefract (1m, good) in May; record suggests she may have needed her return from a short break at Ayr last month and she could make them all go if allowed her own way in front.

Disappointing (0-13) since joining Lizzie Quinlan, last of 12 at Catterick (7f, soft; 50-1) over a fortnight ago; hopes pinned squarely on these newly applied cheekpieces and an AW return (0-7) providing the spark; risky even from this plummeting mark.

Form & Verdict
Full marks for consistency and again ran well when second of eight at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last month, but a record of 2-36 does sound a note of caution and he does seem better over further; visor given a go this time.

Veteran who picked up the latest of his eight wins when scoring at Ripon (1m2f, good) last May; hasn't threatened in three starts this year, latterly in cheekpieces, and his powers of destruction may finally be on the wane; blinkers back on for the first time in over four years.
