J: Matthew Lloyd Slater

T: Kevin & Lauren Frost

Six-time winner who finished a close third in this race off 9lb higher last year; took advantage of a slipping mark when making all to beat King Of Charm at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) in this headgear combination three weeks ago and a 4lb nudge still leaves him competitively weighted.

C&D winner but his last success was almost two years ago; very well treated on old form but he's struggled in last five starts including after wind surgery here (1m good; 22-1) two weeks ago; blinkers are now tried and cheekpieces are removed.

Handles most ground and has been placed in four of his seven handicaps, including a close second at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in June; looks interesting on that form but he failed to back that up at Newmarket last time and that took his record to 0-10; regular visor removed.

Seemingly back in good form when second at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) in May but has quickly gone off the boil again since; on a very good mark now but needs combination of refitted cheekpieces and first-time tongue-tie to give him a shove forward.
