J: Billy Loughnane

T: Ian Williams

Has a patchy profile and was quiet at Wolverhampton last week, but he came from rear to snatch victory at Chester (5f, good) on his penultimate run; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style.

J: David Probert

T: Ian Williams

Has three course wins over 5f but has winning form over 6f; hold-up tactics worked to a tee at Chester (5f, good) last month when he weaved through the pack to win by a neck; such tactics do not always pay off so will do well to repeat those here.

Nine of his 12 wins have been on AW, the latest from 5lb higher at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in March; not beaten far into fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m, soft) last month and he has to be of interest in this field.

Record over C&D reads 133 and her latest third of six behind The Defiant here (first-time blinkers) was even better than it looked with the blindfold being removed late; down another 1lb but the draw hasn't been kind; no headgear today.
