Ran well for second over C&D on his seasonal return in June and went one better at Sandown (1m, good to firm) 31 days ago; found little off the bridle when well beaten at Salisbury on Friday; would have a point to prove if turned out quickly.

Dual 6f winner and went close once over 7f for previous yard; mixed results for current stable and has been absent for seven months; drops in class off a handy mark, so has possibilities if returning in top form.

Dual 6f turf winner who is well treated based on that form; well held on sole AW start (penultimate run; 7f) and unable to get in a serious blow at Brighton (7f, good to firm) latest; drops 2lb; more needed based on recent form.

Two wins for Tim Easterby (6f, good) and ran creditably in her first two starts for this yard, but didn't seem to take to the AW when well held at Chelmsford (7f) last November; 2lb below her last winning mark and worth a market check back from seven months off.

Modest mare but she's suited by Brighton and sole success came over C&D; respectable third here on most recent 7f start; receives plenty of weight all round and could go well.

Front-runner who is probably best known for his exploits at Brighton; won there (7f, good to firm) in June and was placed from favourable draw at Chester (7f, good) last month but finished well down the field when last in action and might find others better treated.

Likes to get on with it and he registered the latest of his six wins when making all in five-runner Brighton handicap (7f, good to firm) last month; went off too quickly next time but his third at Chester was a solid effort two weeks ago; same mark and this is tougher, though.
