Form & Verdict
Beaten about 9l when fifth of nine at 17-2 on debut at Bath (5.7f, firm) three weeks ago, having made the running; however, he's in good hands and has a useful pedigree, and there can be optimism he will improve.

All three wins for this yard at about 1m2f on a wide range of surfaces, most recently when making a winning return to action at Haydock (made all, just hung on) in April; also effective at 1m but raised 4lb to a career-high mark; non-runner 2.55 York on Friday.

Faced a very tough task on last Wednesday's debut at Royal Ascot, when 250-1 and always in rear in the Windsor Castle (5f, good to firm); this race offers a far more realistic opportunity but he didn't show enough last week to have compelling claims here.

Maiden who hasn't had many chances in 6f handicaps but should find one on his recent Kempton Polytrack form, going close two starts ago before the front-running winner wasn't for catching on Wednesday (when first-time blinkers added, now retained); major contender.

11-race maiden but two of his best runs have come over C&D, finishing his race off strongly when a close third to Dr Ali 16 days ago; capable of winning a similar race and first-time blinkers may be beneficial.
