Form & Verdict
Not sure what went wrong at Nottingham five weeks ago (slowly away and never travelling) but he had gone close at Lingfield on his penultimate start; reportedly unsuited by the undulating track when disappointing here last September, which has to be a concern.

Prominent racer with a record of 1-15, the win coming at Lingfield (5f, AW) in May off 1lb lower; creditable effort at Lingfield on Monday and may bag the stands' rail but better will be needed from him here.

Form & Verdict
Good strike-rate for one of her rating, getting up late on at Newmarket three weeks ago (5f, soft); the second, fourth and fifth in that five-runner event have all won since so a 3lb rise looks fair; drying ground won't inconvenience her but it might bring a few others into the reckoning.
