Some near misses in the latter part of 2023, including for today's rider, before he readily accounted for seven rivals at Newcastle (1m2f) four weeks ago; back up 3lb but it shouldn't prevent another good run.

Well-beaten sixth at Newbury last month on second stable start but that was a curious race (winner scored by 17l); prior to that he was a close third at Nottingham (1m2f) on his stable debut and he's run well on Tapeta elsewhere in the past; not written off in first-time cheekpieces.

Big improver on turf last summer; made light of a 14lb rise when winning at Wolverhampton (8.5f) on his stable debut 12 days ago, finding plenty for pressure; the second and third there have both won since and the fourth has also run well so a 3lb rise looks lenient; strong finish over 1m1f last summer offers encouragement for today's trip; big chance.

Asgards Captain

Seen mostly at up to 1m4f, over which he delivered a telling late challenge on the other Newmarket track in May; while that looked encouraging for longer trips, his one attempt at 1m6f (on soft last July) and two at 2m (last two Northumberland Plates) saw him well beaten; that's not conclusive proof that he won't stay 1m6f but it leaves his stamina unproven.

Three wins at this track but he came 13th in this race last year; that was his only appearance over this long a trip and he was also below form when he had a crack at 1m6f, so he's unproven beyond 1m4f, over which he's contested his last nine starts; stamina is the big doubt.
