Form & Verdict

Three-time turf winner and ran okay on sole AW appearance here last year when only beaten 3l; however, out of form on turf when last seen and he seems a bit more effective at 6f.

Form & Verdict

Laytown winner a year ago and made a promising start for this yard earlier in the summer; below form last month but he's the type to bounce back and he's on his lowest mark for some time.
