Form & Verdict
Took 15 attempts to get off the mark in Britain but has landed his last two, at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) early last month and over C&D (good to firm) seven days ago; has gone up by the same amount as his penalty for his latest success and much respected in hat-trick bid.

Tricky to settle and is held up in rear; won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, good to firm; 9lb higher today) last October and had some very solid AW form over 1m2f-2m this year; back to near his best when eighth of 20 at Royal Ascot (2m4f) but he needs to hit a new high if he's to win this.

Won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, good to firm; 9lb higher today) last October and had some very solid AW form over 1m2f-2m this year; not nearly so good in his two races back on turf but his recent run at Epsom (1m2f) should have teed him up nicely for this; current mark and tactical issues coming from the rear are the chief worries.

Acts on good to soft, much more to prove on soft; won the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, good to firm; 10lb higher today) last October and had some very solid AW form over 1m2f-2m this year, prior to tailing off at 50-1 in the Group 3 Ormonde at Chester four weeks ago; he's not on a bad mark but plenty needs to go right if one of his late rushes is to prevail in this.

Running with credit lately, but losing run up to 16 despite having fallen a long way in the weights; needs a strong pace to aim at and that doesn't seem likely in this smallish field.

Went close on his York debut (1m, soft) last October but has regressed markedly since; dropping back in trip and application of cheekpieces will need to make quite a difference.

Form & Verdict
Placed in all three starts over 7f on the AW, but not so good in one go on turf when a well-held fourth of eight at Brighton (1m, good) in May; possible to forgive a modest effort on that track, though, so not dismissed on handicap debut.
