Ended a losing run when seeing off 11 rivals to land a similar race at Wolverhampton ten days ago (extended 1m1f; third has won since); penalty to shoulder but he does at least come here at the top of his game.

Won similar events at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) and Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) around this time last year, but not in the same form lately and needs the addition of cheekpieces to make a difference.

Form & Verdict
Five wins to her name on AW at other tracks; has run well over C&D in the past and her first two runs this year were solid enough; not at her best at Wolverhampton last week but dangerous to rule out.

Often runs well in classified races and a repeat of her recent placed efforts (one of them here) should see her in the mix.

Form & Verdict
Two placed efforts last autumn, one of them over C&D, bring him right into the reckoning but his last four runs have been well short of that level; blinkers the headgear of choice today; revival not totally out of the question.

8st 9lb

J: Gina Mangan

T: John O’Shea

Runner-up twice at Chepstow this season (1m, good/good to firm) but is far too inconsistent to rely upon, and his recent efforts have been very disappointing; swaps usual blinkers for refitted cheekpieces.

Very hit-and-miss these days and his second of 13 at Chepstow (good to firm) in July hasn't been reproduced in six subsequent starts; 1lb out of the weights and others look a lot safer.

J: Jay Mackay

T: John O’Shea

Usually leads and has the option of going up the far side from stall 1; hit-and-miss these days, for a trainer also responsible for Romanovich (a fellow front-runner drawn on the opposite wing) but is capable off a feather weight if tactics decide the day.

0-19 but she has regularly threatened and she wasn't beaten far upped to this trip at Lingfield 19 days ago (finished just behind Well Prepared having made the running); should go well once more.

Runner-up on six occasions including three times here, but is now 0-20; returns to this trip having not improved for the step up to 1m2f the last twice and will need the first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) to make a difference.

4 yo Gelding

Form & Verdict
Modest form in five Irish runs and he's yet to kick on in three runs for Mick Appleby, most recently dropping away in the straight in the race won by Well Prepared ten days ago; this is weak but others still look safer.

Ex-Irish maiden who is 0-4 for shrewd current connections and has weak form claims; however, gives the impression he may improve for this addition of hood, combined with drop back to 1m; not dismissed.
