Form & Verdict
It was a strong novice that he won decisively over 1m3f here in July (runner-up now BHA-rated 108 and the third 91) and he confirmed the merit of that effort when close up in a Listed race at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) the following month; not quite so good at Newmarket in September but returning to AW no bother and he's not fully exposed.

Comfortably won a four-runner C&D Listed race last November; major player on that form, which has not been reproduced this season but he might be of more interest back at this track after two runs this summer on turf.

Comfortably won four-runner 1m4f Listed race at Kempton (AW) last November; not at the same level over 1m2f on his two runs this season but he stayed on well when third of six in a Listed race at Sandown (good) and could take a step forward now back up in trip; he's one to be interested in.

J: Kieran Shoemark

Lightly raced and very progressive, on turf and AW; beat a subsequent US Grade 1 winner on final run of last season at Kempton (1m4f) and again showed strong form when third there on reappearance (1m2f; carried a penalty), as the winner won last weekend's Group 1 at Saint-Cloud and the runner-up a Group 3 next time; has been off for three months and 1m4f may be his optimum trip, but lots to like nonetheless.

Form & Verdict
Successful in a 1m maiden and novice here on his first two starts; made a nonsense of his opening handicap mark at Newmarket in August (1m2f, good to firm) and today's longer trip should be within range; can maintain his unbeaten record back on Polytrack.

OR: 107

Form & Verdict
Three course wins in 2022, notably a Listed event last November; back at that level when fourth of seven in a C&D Group 3 in September; whether he'll be able to see off some promising 3yos in a potentially tactical affair is questionable, though.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: W P Mullins

Won French Listed race on soft as 2yo but has been put in his place in his few outings on soft or heavy ground since; with new yard this term and tongue tied, easily winning a maiden hurdle in May and following up in 1m6f handicap at Royal Ascot (good to firm) in June; this race demands a lot more.

Form & Verdict
Useful 2yo (Tapeta winner and Group 3-placed); slow start to this season but he returned to form with a bang in a Class 2 1m4f handicap at Newcastle three weeks ago; could still have more in the tank.

Best 2yo run was on turf here but he suffered heavy defeats at Newmarket in his only two turf races last term, admittedly absent five months in between; surged back to form on AW last October-December but last month's run was not so good; blinkers are given a go and overall improvement is needed.

Useful colt who ended his 2023 campaign with respectable efforts in Listed grade elsewhere; 2-2 at Newcastle, including a 1l success off just 1lb lower on sole handicap attempt; interesting returned to this venue on seasonal debut.
