Form & Verdict
0-10, but placed three times last year including when third of ten off 2lb higher at Salisbury (6f, good) in May (form worked out well); stays this far and gave the impression he would come on for his Chelmsford reappearance (7f, AW) in April; shortlisted.

Dual 7f winner (once over C&D) in spring 2023; not firing on all cylinders this year but was denied a clear run before keeping on for fourth at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) last month and now reverts to optimum trip after a failed 1m attempt on Tapeta; on a tempting mark.

Still 6lb higher than when bolting up over C&D (soft; first-time cheekpieces) last summer; handles good to firm ground too, but beaten a long way in his last three starts including both since returning in April; first-time blinkers will need to make a big difference.

Form & Verdict
Both wins in Britain have come on the AW and he went down by only a head at Kempton (7f) last time, but he did score on turf in France (for this stable); further probably suits him best, but he stil comes into this in better form than most.

Four wins include one over C&D (good) in May 2024; hasn't scored since August of that year but he's now 20lb lower and latest fourth of 13 at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) was a solid effort despite hanging; should enhance creditable Brighton form figures of 21424.

0-30 on AW but he's won four times on turf (7f); struggled during the winter but he returned to this scene with a respectable effort at Yarmouth (6f, good) last month; should benefit from that run and he's in the mix on this step back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied.

Form & Verdict
Has been useful in his time if not always the easiest, but losing run up to 21 despite dropping 28lb since his last success; blinkers return and he takes a big drop in trip (ran over an extended 1m5f seven days ago) and has plenty to prove.

Form & Verdict
Sole success came by a nose in a four-runner Brighton maiden (6f, good to firm) last August; similar form when placed in two AW handicaps and may have needed the run when sixth of seven on his Southwell reappearance (6f, AW) three weeks ago; bred to stay this far on the dam's side, but has to prove it.

Ended a losing run when the comfortable winner of a 5f handicap at Nottingham last May (5f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark; he was returning from a short break when fourth of 13 at Pontefract 17 days ago and that effort can be upgraded as he was wider than ideal as the field turned for home; each-way shout.

Form & Verdict
8-61 on the AW and rarely seen on turf (1-20) these days, but he went down by only a short head over C&D (good to firm; 33-1) eight days ago; already due to go up 2lb so a major player if he can repeat that performance.
