Form & Verdict
Has only won once but in first-time blinkers he finished with a rattle to go close at Goodwood last week (5f, good); won't be far away with a repeat, though unraced on softer than good and has bypassed a soft-ground date previously.

J: Laura Pearson

T: Shaun Harris

Ended his time with Amanda Perrett by refusing to race twice and he repeated the antics in one racecourse visit for Ian McInnes in December; has not beaten a rival in three runs for new yard; may come good off a lowly mark with headgear returned but can't be supported with confidence.

Refused to race in last three races last season; hasn't repeated that since, but hasn't shown any worthwhile form this year either (twice slowly away after blindfold taken off late); others stronger.

Form & Verdict
Wolverhampton winner at 6f and 5f; under 2l away back there last time despite pulling very hard and he can handle downhill tracks; headgear sported for last three runs is left off and that shouldn't be too damaging.

Recent form includes a turf success but he's only 1-19 in this sphere and still has a much better strike-rate on AW; below par at Brighton last time.

Prolific AW winner; off the mark on turf with a last-gasp success at Goodwood (5f, good) last month; would have finished hot on the heels of Moulin Booj at Windsor last time but for meeting late interference; in the mix again.

Multiple course winner, the latest last September (6f, soft) off a 1lb lower mark; she has run some solid races in defeat this year but consistency has been an issue and others appeal more in today's field.

J: William Carson

T: Grace Harris

Seven-time course winner (4-12 over this trip); has been running over 7f of late but should be all right with the return to 5f and is back at the right sort of level off her last winning mark; enters calculations.

Form & Verdict
Poor strike-rate of 1-32 but he very nearly doubled his tally at Yarmouth on his penultimate start (5f, good to firm; has soft-ground form if going back far enough); too free when only fifth of six back there next time.

Has shown inconsistent form, mostly on AW, this year and ran below par over C&D in most recent turf attempt; far from sure to take advantage of a reduced mark.

Form & Verdict
Better strike-rate on AW and he weakened right out of it on his latest turf start at Brighton 23 days ago, since when he's changed yards (same owners); others preferred.

Multiple 5f winner down the years, including over C&D, but his powers appear to be on the wane; a couple of respectable efforts last month but more will be needed to win.
