Form & Verdict
Absent since last May but respectable sixth of 17 at York back then, and before that she returned from some time off with a good second at Chelmsford (1m5f, Polytrack) so is capable of going well fresh; this 5yo remains very lightly raced and is an interesting contender on Tapeta debut.

0-8 in handicaps since winning his first two starts last July; hasn't really been shaping as though a win is imminent but he's edging down the weights and this is an easier race than he's used to; could be a contender.

Won this race last year (soft) from Robert Johnson and dictated the pace under Connor Beasley when taking a useful Newbury race (2m, good to firm) 13 days ago, from closing rivals including Kyle Of Lochalsh; up 3lb but this highly reliable sort will surely be seriously involved again.

The Cesarewitch was his only disappointment for new yard last season and his win came at Glorious Goodwood (2m4f, soft); 7lb higher today, nudged up another 1lb following his second at Goodwood (2m, good) on reappearance; respectable fifth at Royal Ascot keeps him in each-way calculations.

Form & Verdict
His course wins came on the old Fibresand surface and Polytrack may suit better than Tapeta, with this month's Lingfield win (2m, Polytrack) being sandwiched by two lesser efforts on Tapeta; however, he ran some good races here last winter and is not ruled out.

Won over 1m2f at Windsor in October on final start for Hughie Morrison and he ran well here last April; however, he's been tailed off on his first two runs for this yard (1m4f/1m3f) and a major turnaround is required now up in distance in first-time headgear.

Form & Verdict
Won five times on the Tapeta at Newcastle and Wolverhampton (1m4f-1m6f) towards the end of last year, including a hat-trick in December; below par when fifth at Newcastle last time but he may have been feeling the effects of a busy spell and he's respected after a three-week break.
