J: Christian Howarth

T: Simon Dow

Lost his last 19 starts and maintains a far lesser strike-rate on turf, but two previous runs over this C&D have netted a win off 11lb higher and (latest) a near-3l fifth which can be marked up as the rider dropped his hands late on; turn might be nearing.

Slipped in the weights and back to winning ways in first-time hood at Chelmsford in January; solid efforts on last two starts (including over C&D penultimate run) and should go well in this company.

Won seven in a row over 6f on AW at start of this year but has been safely held on all four turf starts (5f-6f) since returning from a break in July; sure to be suited by this return to Tapeta but will needs to be back in prime form to overcome combination of wide draw and current AW mark.

Has much better strike-rate on AW but recovered from slow start to win here (5f, firm) on turf return in May, and this longer trip will arguably suit him better; needs to bounce back from two down-the-field runs but was denied a clear run on first occasion; can't be ruled out.

Better known on AW; can lead but he came from off the pace when winning at Bath (5f, firm) last month under James Glennon; nothing went right from a wide draw at Beverley since but he does act well on fast ground and has a generally good record over C&D (course winner at 5f); thereabouts.

Ordinary strike-rate (1-22) and, although he's slipped a fair way in the weights, he'll have to better his most recent efforts if he's to break a lengthy losing run.

5yo with an overall record of 2-34; two good placed efforts off a higher mark over C&D in November but he's lost his way in his last two starts; drops back in trip but he bled from the nose here last time and needs a major revival in new combination of headgear
