Has good pedigree but was 18-1 for a Kempton novice (1m, AW) in December and he ran green before finishing a 9l ninth of 14; should be more streetwise back from a break but he needs a transformation on this step up in trip.

Has an all-or-nothing profile since handicapping, having scored twice (1m2f/1m4f) and been a disappointing favourite twice; could easily bounce back, provided he's suited by this new trip.

Well held in both his runs in the autumn, most recently when 8l third of six at Pontefract (1m2f, good to soft) in October; still early days and this Nathaniel colt should have more to offer this season but he doesn't set a very high standard on his latest form.

Off the mark over hurdles at Ballinrobe in May on second start for this yard at Ballinrobe; useful five-time Flat winner for Andrew Balding; could make no impression when returning to Britain for the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot; no match for a Willie Mullins-trained favourite in a novice hurdle at Roscommon three weeks ago.

Off the mark over hurdles on second start for this yard at Ballinrobe (16.5f, good) in May; smart form on the Flat for Andrew Balding but came up short back on the level in a hot Royal Ascot handicap three weeks ago; top-rated here at 128; obvious chance on ground that will suit.

Has a cracking pedigree, which has not yet resulted in a win but this 3yo took minor honours in maidens at Yarmouth (11.4f) and Salisbury (1m4f, again good to firm) on last two outings and it is easy to envisage him staying this trip; one to note on handicap debut.

Nicely bred colt; seemed to need debut run, then fared better at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm; finished third) while shaping as if this extra yardage will suit; should improve further; respected.

7-1 when sixth of seven on his Windsor debut (1m2f, soft) in April; from a highly successful family and ought to do better in due course, but he will need to improve a fair bit from that first effort.

His only effort of any note came in his one run on Polytrack, namely a ninth of 11 (RPR 56) at Chelmsford in May; fitting of blinkers suggests there was more to his low-key handicap debut than just the soft ground.
