Form & Verdict
Off the mark at the 12th attempt when finishing well to cash in on a reduced mark over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago; that was a narrow success but he knuckled down well when it came to the crunch and a 3lb rise looks fair enough; respected.

Better with each run since handicapping and she followed her C&D win (good to firm) last month with a second behind an improver at Carlisle (1m) last Monday; still has potential after only seven starts and she's respected back at this track.

Just one win from 11 starts on turf but she's shaped with promise in two runs over C&D this season and didn't get the best of runs when a close fifth last time; dropped another 1lb and has possibilities if this sets up for the closers.

Poor 1-22 strike-rate on turf and not at the top of her game on Southwell AW on her last two starts, but she's never really shone there; she's 5lb lower than for her close fourth over C&D (good) last October and is an interesting contender now away from Southwell.

Form & Verdict
Hold-up performer who had a win and close third over C&D (both on good to firm) last month; didn't fire at Catterick (7f classified) last time but that was behind an emphatic front-running winner and he should get a better tow into this race; could bounce back and he's not ruled out.

Has won five times here; a line can be put through his most recent C&D run and he didn't get any peace out in front at Nottingham 11 days ago (weakened into eighth of ten); it wouldn't be the biggest surprise to see him bounce back (there is possible competition for the lead but no other out-and-out front-runners).
