Form & Verdict
Has raced too freely but seems to be learning on the job and ran out a comfortable winner over this sort of trip at Lingfield (good to firm); that wasn't a strong race with the favourite below par but he has more to offer; raised 6lb.

Posted best effort for these connections when third at Sedgefield in April (2m5f, good), before appearing to find it harder work last time; mixed record over stayers' trips, and would appreciate the ground drying out.

Both hurdles wins (one at today's trip) came on sound surfaces last year, and April's staying-on Sedgefield chase third (2m5f, good) is his best effort to date for current connections; coming to the boil again.

Form & Verdict
Turf/AW winner and now 6lb beneath his last winning mark (over 2m in March of last year); probably didn't want the soft ground when beaten 23l at Chester but then finished completely tailed off at the recent Galway festival (yielding); a revival is not totally out of the question.

Form & Verdict
Followed up her breakthrough win in a Bath maiden (1m2f, firm) when scoring with a bit to spare on her handicap debut at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft); the consistent runner-up is now 0-9 (beaten three times since) and going up 6lb asks questions of her; respected nevertheless with no wellbeing issues.

Dual scorer (1m2f/1m3f) in small fields in early summer; not quite so hot since in two 1m4f handicaps on good to firm but the latest gave some encouragement for this longer trip; overall improvement is needed.

Front-runner who was progressive last year (over 1m6f, 1m5f here and 2m) and finished either first or second in all five of those races, but he wasn't seen after July; a shorter break (178 days) didn't prevent a win first time out last term and he should be retained in serious calculations.

Front-runner who was progressive on turf this year (1m6f/1m5f, good/good to soft) prior to winning the Northumberland Plate consolation race at Newcastle (AW) four weeks ago on his first crack at 2m; it was a big field that day and a 5lb rise may not stop him here.
