Unplaced in both starts last autumn despite being prominent in the market, though not much went right when fourth of seven at Wolverhampton (9.5f, Tapeta) on his second outing; gelded soon afterwards and probably capable of better.

Runner-up on good to soft in May; won three in a row (1m4f/1m6f, good to firm) before good fourth in the Melrose over C&D (good to firm) in August; also ran well, staying on, at Haydock on latest outing and looks a major each-way player but he needs to resume his improvement to win.

Off the mark in Chepstow novice (1m4f, good to firm) in June and won two handicaps (1m6f, good to firm) to complete a hat-trick; hit with a 9lb rise since Haydock last time but he's highly progressive and his trainer (who saddles two in this) has won two of the last four runnings; key player.

Form & Verdict
Gradual progress in three starts last autumn; finishing second of 12 at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) on his final outing; beaten over 5l by the winner there, but that rival followed up under his penalty at the same track two months later; ought to stay this far and respected if ready to go after six months off.

Arrives seeking a four-timer, two of the wins over C&D, and he hasn't been treated punitively by the assessor having gone up just 6lb; this is a much stiffer test of his credentials but there are no doubts surrounding his wellbeing.

Unexposed filly who made an encouraging start when a 9-2 fourth at Lingfield (1m2f) in April; has not built on that in two runs since (favourite both times) but she now goes back up in trip on her handicap debut and needs a close look for in-form yard.

Looked green when fourth of seven on her Lingfield debut (1m2f, Polytrack) in April, but that looked a fair race of its type as the first two have been successful since; any improvement on that would put her right in the mix.

Form & Verdict
In the frame in four of her first five starts, including when beaten half a length in a handicap here (1m) 15 days ago having previously been off for five months; out of a 1m4f winner so ought to stay this longer trip and is likely to go close.
