Went close over C&D in March and won at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta) 13 days later; not at the same level on his three starts since, particularly on turf on last two outings, but the return to Tapeta could prompt a revival.

Gained his third success when winning at Newcastle (7f, AW) in March having got plenty of cover when there was a headwind; wasn't able to match that effort there 23 days ago and now steps back up in grade; returns to turf with place claims.

Two 7f AW wins for Michael Bell and he made a winning stable debut over 7f here last month; good efforts in a higher grade the last twice (1m, soft); should go well again.

Won off this mark in first-time blinkers at York (7f, good) last July and he could improve for last month's respectable comeback at Southwell (7f, AW); however, he does need to build on that and blinkers are left off.

Scored off 1lb lower in first-time cheekpieces at York (7f, good) last summer and is also suited by Tapeta but we haven't seen him since a low-key run on soft turf in September.

The switch to heavy ground saw him take a marked step forward when making all in a small-field nursery at Haydock three weeks ago; 6lb higher today and it remains to be seen what the latest form is worth.

7f win for Ed Walker as a 2yo; modest form on Flat and over hurdles for new yard this year; Royal Ascot was fanciful latest and although this is more realistic, others still bring more compelling claims.

A staying-on third at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) in September is clearly the pick of his four runs; makes handicap with potential for better but this trip looked to stretch him at Redcar three weeks ago.

She should be well handicapped now and her last two runs have both been respectable; cheekpieces tried last time are now replaced by first-time blinkers; one to consider.

With Ian Williams for last two outings, finding 7f too sharp on first occasion and maybe 1m3f too far on second; now she splits the difference and is very well handicapped judged on plenty of form, including a 1m2f win last June; could be dangerous in first-time headgear.

Scrambled home in a 7f Class 5 fillies' handicap at Carlisle (soft) last month but bombed out 48 hours later at Hamilton (8.5f; first-time visor); eased in grade with that headgear discarded seeking a revival; realistic chance at the weights factoring in allowances.

Early promise but her progress had stalled prior to rewarding market support at Carlisle on Monday (7f, soft); showed a good attitude there, especially as she raced freely early on, and can't discount despite a penalty; now tried in a visor.
