C&D win last December; off the mark for the year when winning a Yarmouth handicap (11.5f, soft) in good style in October; ran well over 1m2f here four weeks ago, carried right by the errant winner, and he's capable of another prominent showing.

Off the mark at the 11th attempt when narrowly landing a 9.5f handicap at Wolverhampton two weeks ago, her first run for 229 days; wore blinkers for the first time on that occasion and they're now swapped for a visor; should give it another good go up 2lb.

0-10, but she was running well over 1m4f on Polytrack late last year; returns from 229 days off in first-time blinkers and not sure dropping in trip is ideal, but still hard to dismiss with Simon Walker taking the ride.
