Form & Verdict
16th race when everything finally fell into place and he won at Leicester (1m4f, good to soft) two months ago on last run, going on 2f out in a five-runner race; runner-up on his only go under Ross Birkett; first run beyond 1m4f is not sure to suit but, back up just 2lb, he is on a competitive mark.

Off the mark at the 14th attempt when seeing off three rivals over C&D (soft) in May off 2lb lower; two backward steps since (third to Fred Bear here on first occasion) and they cast a cloud.

J: William Carson

T: Anthony Carson

Well handicapped on his best form and he returned from a lengthy absence with a fair fourth of 11 at Southwell (1m6f) last month; could be dangerous if he can build on that but a strike-rate of 1-29 is off-putting.

Form & Verdict
Often front-runner; won over C&D (good to soft) in June off 5lb lower in second-time cheekpieces, which have been kept since; not so competitive in his three subsequent starts (one over hurdles in Jersey) and he's never run on firmer than good when on the Flat; still respected in this field, though.

2m winner in this sphere; stayer on the Flat; not disgraced over C&D (good) returned to hurdles but his effort rather petered out after pulling hard; chance partly depends on whether he settles better.
