Won a Lingfield novice (11.6f) in June and scored in commanding style at Windsor (11.4f; second run in cheekpieces) in August; ran well again at Ascot (1m4f) on latest start but may have to find a bit more if he's to make this a successful AW debut.

J: Jason Watson

T: Andrew Balding

Gained reward for a host of consistent efforts when bagging Lingfield novice (good) in June; subsequently been getting the hang of handicaps and he made the breakthrough in that sphere with a commanding win at Windsor (also 11.5f, good to firm; second run in cheekpieces) last Monday; 7lb rise could have been worse and he's not one to take lightly despite the rise in grade.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

Landed 11.5f novice at Lingfield in June; ran well in first-time cheekpieces when second of nine in 1m2f handicap at Chester 22 days ago; can race off a 1lb lower mark here so bold showing is on the cards in retained headgear.

9st 7lb

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

No course form but acts on good and faster ground; it took six races to get off the mark, when odds-on over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield in June, and he proved very disappointing when a shade of odds-on for last month's handicap debut at Newmarket (1m4f; beaten 18l); now goes in cheekpieces and he could be given another chance, especially as the horse he beat in his novice has won since.

8st 11lb

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

Acts on good to firm; placed over 1m2f on first four starts this season, before comfortably justifying 4-6 favouritism in a 11.6f novice at Lingfield on latest outing; this unchanged, opening handicap mark seems to demand more but he may have more to offer at this sort of trip.
