Form & Verdict
Recorded his sixth Tapeta win when scoring at Southwell (7f) in May and he returned from a break with a creditable fourth over C&D (beaten less than 2l) last Tuesday; should benefit from that run and he could have a big part to play; stablemate of Mykonos St John.

In good form this spring, winning at Thirsk (1m, good) and over C&D (good to firm) last month; front pair were 6l clear that day and if he can maintain that level of form he'd still look well treated despite a 5lb rise.

His form can be up and down and he failed to shine at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last time; however, prior to that he was a promising fourth on his reappearance there (7f, AW), and he won off this mark at Chepstow (7f, good) last May; capable if bouncing back to form.

Strong traveller who has reached the frame on numerous occasions this season but her form slumped at Kempton (second-time blinkers) two weeks ago; that took her losing run to 19 but regular cheekpieces now return and it wouldn't be a surprise if she bounced back with a big run.

Most of his runs have been at sprint trips and he's still unexposed at 7f; won over this far at Musselburgh (good to soft) in September and has run respectably at Newcastle in last two runs but he needs to find something extra to get back on the scoresheet.
