Admirable sort whose seven wins include twice here over 5f, notably 0.5l defeat of Collective Power in April; arrives here on the back of two good runs over 5f at the Curragh but remains vulnerable at this trip.

Form & Verdict
Won two classified races (one over C&D) when fitted with cheekpieces in June and has gone close in C&D handicaps on last two outings; switches to first-time blinkers today and ought to be right in the thick of things again; effective on ground ranging from good to firm to soft; often leads.

J: Taryn Langley

T: Stuart Kittow

Beaten a neck and a head in this race last year; has run some good races this season but her form dropped off at Salisbury last month and a visit to Brighton, a track she likes, could only produce a fourth of nine last time; handicapper's trying to help, though.

Her last win was in Ireland 14 months ago but she went close at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in June and backed that up with a fair fourth over 7f there last month; remains well handicapped on her old form and has possibilities back in trip.

Form & Verdict
Made all over 7f here (good to firm) in June and was evidently well suited by the drop back to 6f when repeating the dose here (good) a fortnight ago; drops in trip again today; likely to make another bold bid; unraced on ground slower than good.

Record of 2-38 but his last win was on AW here (1m2f) in March and he went close in an Epsom handicap (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's respected on this drop back in grade.

Form & Verdict
Scored off 4lb higher over 6f here in spring 2022 and will be fine over today's trip, but has been absent since last October and it's hard to gauge how much ability he retains as an 11yo; versatile regarding ground.
