Two C&D runs have yielded a second and a ready success nine days ago, keeping on strongly; not well in under a 6lb penalty but still likely to give it another good go.

Six-time winner at up to 16.5f, including on Tapeta; has struggled this season and has had wind surgery since being well beaten at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) in June; takes a 2lb drop and slight drop in grade and he's well treated if he can be revived.

J: Kevin Stott

T: Ed Dunlop

Won off 1lb higher at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) last June but he's been disappointing in four runs since; takes a big drop back in trip here but he needs to get back near his best; regular visor is replaced by first-time blinkers.

Well beaten all starts to date, including when last on her handicap debut off a 3lb higher mark in June; this is weaker but she does need to raise her game.

Enjoying a purple patch at present, winning 1m handicaps at Brighton and Chepstow in June and gaining his first win at this trip at Lingfield three weeks ago (AW); up 3lb but can't ignore now he's in the groove.

Well backed ahead of his handicap debut in March but dropped away over 7f; again well beaten on last month's stable debut at Nottingham (extended 1m) and hopes are pinned on the additional distance sparking something extra.
