Form & Verdict
Runner-up in both visits here, including on handicap debut in March after four months off (1m2f; first start since being gelded); well held by the winner that day and ran poorly in first-time cheekpieces at Windsor (11.4f, soft) last month when reportedly unsuited by the ground; visor given a go this time but he has enough to prove.

Promise when fourth over 1m in the spring (including one here) in his first two starts, but finished around 16l behind the winner in his last two outings, including on handicap debut at Goodwood (1m2f, heavy) last month; this longer trip should suit on breeding and cheekpieces now given a go, but he does need to resume his progress.

Came good at Fontwell (2m5f, good) in March and probably bettered that performance when close second at Newton Abbot (2m5f, heavy) in April; reportedly not suited by the sharp track at Cartmel when very disappointing favourite last month but might bounce back in new headgear here and is evidently versatile ground-wise.

Arrives on the up for his current yard, scoring at Fontwell (2m5f) in March before an excellent second of nine in 2m5f handicap at Newton Abbot the following month; he was a fair 1m6f Flat winner so merits serious consideration despite a 3lb weights rise.

Form & Verdict
Promising fourth on Kempton debut last November and has since gained narrow wins in novices at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) in December and Nottingham (1m2f, soft) last month; makes handicap debut and his stamina for the longer trip is not guaranteed on breeding, but he shaped as though it would suit last time; respected.

Good efforts in just two 1m2f handicaps for this stable, doing well against a progressive one at Newmarket (good; has won on soft) then things didn't go his way after another slow start at Doncaster in August; the return to a stiff finish can suit; has every chance.

Form & Verdict
Well held in two starts for Joseph O'Brien last October and may not have achieved much when third of five behind a nice sort here (7f) last month on stable debut after 196 days off; bred for middle distances and makes his handicap debut, but he does need to take a step forward.

Form & Verdict
Followed a similar path to so many from the stable, improving plenty when stepped up in trip and handicapping, winning over C&D and at Salisbury (1m4f, good) last month before falling short in his hat-trick bid at Doncaster (14.5f, good); the longer trip last time may have been a bigger issue than the 7lb rise and it's dangerous to dismiss him.

Form & Verdict
Has had a problem with the stalls but showed ability in three starts over 1m on turf when he did get to race, including an easy win in a Redcar novice (good to soft) last October; steps up half a mile for this handicap/AW debut but there is some stamina on the dam's side and he remains unexposed.

Sole win over hurdles came in a Clonmel handicap last June off 111; has slumped in the ratings and failed to exploit her reduced mark (97) when fifth at Clonmel 13 days ago; however, he is closely matched with Redwood Queen on running in a claimer at Tramore last month.

Form & Verdict
Well held in two starts over 7f here last summer but has improved since returning in turf handicaps, getting off the mark in good style at Doncaster (1m4f, soft) in April; couldn't cope with the 6lb rise when fourth of eight at Chester (1m4f, soft) last month, though, so has a bit to prove back on Tapeta from just 1lb lower.
