Form & Verdict
11-race maiden at up to 1m4f; not out of it on her best form this summer but she needs to bounce back from a poor run at Wolverhampton four weeks ago (first-time blinkers, left off today); stepping up to 2m could suit this close relative of Gold Cup winner Subjectivist but there are some risks attached.

Form & Verdict
He has been beaten a long way in three novice runs at up to 1m4f but an RPR of 66 when fifth here last month offers hope that he's feasibly treated for this handicap debut; not bred to want this far but his trainer is a dab hand with similar types.

All five wins have been over 2m on AW; couldn't pose a threat at Lingfield last month but the drop back to 1m5f looked against him and he went very close on his Wolverhampton reappearance in March; still looks feasibly treated on that form and has possibilities back at his optimum trip.

Three-time 2m Polytrack winner (two over C&D); she was returning from 322 days off when eighth behind Blazeon Five over C&D four weeks ago and shaped as though the run was needed, inclined to over-race and weakening in the final furlong having briefly led in the straight; could leave that run well behind her today.
