Form & Verdict

Form & Verdict
12-race maiden; bounced back quickly from poor seasonal debut when keeping-on fifth in quite valuable Sunday Series race at Hamilton (1m5f, good to soft) nine days ago and contests this easier race from a 2lb lower mark; would appeal more on slower ground but still goes on the shortlist.

In good form on soft/good over hurdles in May/June when last seen; reverts to the Flat on a mark 2lb lower than when winning at Hamilton (1m5f, good) last June and he's capable of having a big say.

Handled testing conditions best, bounding clear to make it 2-3 over C&D (soft; a 23l winner) four weeks ago; the handicapper has reacted, and he's now 9lb higher moving up into a Class 4; still enters calculations though, with 10lb claimer Gregor Walkingshaw retaining the ride.

Confirmed hold-up performer who is now at the veteran stage, but he is the only previous C&D winner in the field; failed to beat a rival here 11 days ago, but the return to 0-55 company is a positive and he should make his presence felt.

Five-time course winner who made the perfect start for his new yard when scoring by almost 4l over C&D last month; held in third behind Satyress at Newcastle (1m4f) last time but he didn't get the best of runs and that was another good effort; respected off unchanged mark.

Four of his seven wins have come over 1m4f/1m6f here and showed he retained ability when winning a handicap at Catterick (1m4f, good) in May; now makes his debut for his eighth different trainer (same owners) and his course record makes him of interest.

Form & Verdict
0-10 now but was placed off 2lb higher mark over C&D (good) when back on turf this month and certainly didn't run badly when fifth of eight at Musselburgh (2m, good) eight days ago; will be on the premises if first-time cheekpieces have any sort of positive effect.

Went close in a 2m1f course handicap in June and ran respectably when third the following month, but she's now 0-14 over hurdles and has a lesser effort to forgive last time; stamina to prove over the furthest she's been, although pedigree offers some hope.

12-race maiden over hurdles but has some solid placed form, most recently when a neck second over C&D in June (Linden Line 1l back in third); disappointed next time and was comfortably held in a C&D maiden under James Robottom last time, but she's a major threat if returning to her best.
