Form & Verdict
4yo who was won twice over C&D (good to firm/good to soft) this season and was a creditable third over 6f here on his penultimate run; didn't really fire when favourite at Musselburgh last Friday but that was behind a well-handicapped rival who made all and he's respected back at this track.

Form & Verdict
Recorded his breakthrough win (ninth attempt) when landing a gamble off a reduced mark over C&D (good) 12 days ago; back up 5lb but he had more in hand than the winning margin suggests last time and that was a personal-best effort; big player again.

On a competitive mark on this year's best efforts here (5f/6f, including on soft ground); however, he's been well beaten the last twice and his stamina isn't guaranteed now back up in trip; cheekpieces go on.

Form & Verdict
Won off 1lb higher at Musselburgh (5f, good) in May but he hasn't been at the same level in four runs since; ran into some trouble over C&D two weeks ago but he finished almost 5l behind Wrecked It Ralph and others are preferred; blinkers back on.

Has record of 1-25 but his win came at Carlisle (good to firm) in May and he's held his form on fast and slow ground since; on same mark as for his closing second at Pontefract last time and he should be in the mix again.

Form & Verdict
Generally regressive 3yo with a record of 1-10 but she's dropped a long way in the weights and showed signs of a revival with her front-running third over C&D (good) on Monday; that was behind a resurgent rival and has claims if she can build on that.
