Lightly raced 4yo who ran his best race yet when second to a well-handicapped opponent at Chelmsford last week; this is a better race but he still has time to do better and the cheekpieces return today.

Form & Verdict
Had a purple patch on Tapeta between October and January, winning three times over 7f; he's come up short in better company on his last two starts but certainly hasn't been disgraced; the worry this time is that he won't get enough of a pace to aim at, but he is potent at this level.

Form & Verdict
Contender for ride of the year when Luke Morris managed to put his head in front at Southwell in February (7f; off this mark); short of that level in three runs since, the returning cheekpieces not helping matters at Southwell last week; can race prominently though and that might be advantageous.

Popped up in a 6f handicap at Epsom last summer off this mark; not so good afterwards and he was sold for 14,000gns in October; new connections quick to put the cheekpieces back on (ran well when worn twice before) and a tongue-tie is also added; unplaced in five runs over this trip.
