9st 1lb

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Richard Hannon

Only 2lb higher than when winning over C&D (good to firm) in July, and he's still well handicapped judged on the pick of his form from last autumn; saddle slipped when down the field in the Shergar Cup three weeks ago; tactically versatile, and plenty of rain would not inconvenience him in the slightest; has rock-solid credentials.

J: Jamie Melham

T: Richard Hannon

Looked as though he needed further than 1m when a rallying fourth at Newmarket in June and he duly obliged returned to 1m2f at Sandown; didn't have a lot in hand that day but only went up 2lb and he could approve for going even further this afternoon.

Off the bridle a long way out over 1m at Newmarket 15 days ago but he did stick at it for fourth of 13, suggesting this return to 1m2f for the first time this year may suit; nicely handicapped on his second at Newbury on his final 3yo start.

9st 13lb

J: Alec Voikhansky

T: Richard Hannon

Runner-up last September in his first two handicaps (1m2f/1m, soft/good to soft) and not beaten far when ninth of 24 on reappearance in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m, good); perhaps unsuited by Epsom when down the field a fortnight ago and this unexposed 4yo remains one to be interested in.

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Richard Hannon

Wide-margin win (7f, heavy) on his sole start at two promised plenty and, after being campaigned over 1m2f and 1m4f, he recorded a clear career best when second of 15 over 1m at Newbury (good to soft) on his final start at three; subsequently gelded and his reappearance when beaten less than 4l at Newbury in April was perfectly respectable; unexposed and he's respected.
