Came away with an improver on Kempton AW in the spring (7f) and probably bettered that in defeat back there 12 days ago; may face competition for the lead from Attentive but holds strong claims either way.

All five wins have been over 7f on AW but latest was 11 months ago; on dangerous mark but he ended last year on a low note and was tailed off on his hurdling debut last month; has rejoined Darryll Holland since that last run but he has some questions to answer; blinkers reapplied.

Form & Verdict
Patchy profile this year, over various trips, in blinkers and a tongue-tie; did better on his AW debut over C&D recently but history suggests he's no good thing to build on it back up 2lb.

Multiple winner but turf successes are thin on the ground now, just one in over three years; however, he's been running up to his best since back on grass, going down narrowly in a higher grade at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in May and another solid effort there last time; thereabouts.

Tough sort whose form over C&D features a success last August and sound efforts in two of his last three outings; ties in with two of today's rivals on the latest one; solid chance.

Exposed sprinter who wins in his turn these days but his C&D record reads 312; that latest visit was just one month ago and he competes from the same mark as when far from disgraced in midfield at York a fortnight ago; each-way contender.

Form & Verdict
Been gelded and undergone wind surgery since a poor turf debut in the spring; the return to the AW and 7f should suit and is worth tracking in the market.

Dual soft-ground winner last summer who's been tough to place after a busy 2yo campaign; the handicapper is proving slow to relent and she's being tried without cheekpieces for the first time this year.

Showed the right attitude when making all over C&D for William Haggas early in the year; has been off for more than six months and the market will show what new connections make of her mark now handicapping.
