8st 11lb |
In great form (on ground softer than good) since returned to 7f, notably for wins at this track and Newbury; however, the issues are a 6lb penalty and return to forecast faster surface; future mark is 2lb lower. |

Close second at Ascot (7f) last month and was given well-judged ride from off the pace to go one better over same C&D (again on good to soft) a fortnight later; still quite lightly raced for his age and recent 3lb rise does not look excessive. |

Yard won this with 3yos in 2020 and 2021; the return to Newbury could be a plus as he won in April (7f, soft) on his sole course visit; however, he's struggled on his three starts since and a major turnaround is needed in first-time blinkers (has worn cheekpieces the last twice). |

11th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Has work to do on these terms and was never in contention when dropped to 6f at Newmarket last month (soft) but had hinted earlier that a sprint trip wouldn't be a forlorn hope and the return to Tapeta is worth a go, having won impressively at Wolverhampton (7f) on final 2yo start. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Has her quirks - she has hung left on occasions - and her overall profile is one of inconsistency; no denying she's talented though and the ease with which she travelled through a good 7f handicap (heavy) at Newbury three weeks ago bodes well for her claims now dropping to 6f; rain would aid her cause; interesting despite looking to face an uphill task at the weights. |

Yet to win this year but she's tackled some stronger handicaps and she has shaped encouragingly the last twice; stiff 6f shouldn't hold any terrors and she has run well in both AW assignments; stable banging in the winners and she's of obvious interest. |

9st 10lb |
Too green to do himself justice in a 7f AW novice in October but he took a good step forward when comfortably seeing off his main market rival at Lingfield 13 days ago (1m); should have more to come but it will be needed if he is to defy a penalty on very different underfoot conditions. |

Not totally disgraced on debut in a race that has thrown up a couple of winners; needs to improve on that bare form but good chance he will, though pedigree suggests he'll be suited by middle distances. |

4th Nov 2023 Heavy 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Acts well on soft and did really well when second of 17 to a big improver in this race last year; has tended to blow hot and cold this season but did his best work late when reunited with Ryan Sexton behind Marshal Dan at Leicester recently (7f, soft); bang there off 2lb lower than 12 months ago. |

Hasn't built on the promise of debut second at Newbury (7f, good) in May in two subsequent outings (bled and reported to have been unsuited by quick ground on first occasion) but retains potential now handicapping; yard in very good form; interesting contender. |

Finished third of 15 in the 2018 running; has had a stop-start year but testing conditions suit and he looked in good form when a ready winner from Hodler at Leicester 18 days ago (7f, soft; first-time cheekpieces, retained); back up 5lb; one of the more likely ones. |

Has form figures of 312 since switched to handicaps this summer and that latest second was a close call behind Overnight Oats at Sandown (first two clear) three weeks ago over 7f on good for turf debut; 1lb better off with his old rival here and should make another bold bid. |
