Won the corresponding race 12 months ago off a 2lb higher mark; came into that race in good form, however, whereas this time around he was a remote last of seven at Beverley; revival not impossible but others are more solid; stable also run Lion's House.

Progressed well last year after starting off in classified events and it was a rare blip at Southwell two months ago; could be better for a break and showed on his penultimate run that he can deal with this near career-high mark.

Made an impressive winning debut when making all at Southwell (5f, Tapeta) a year ago and only beaten half a length there (first-time tongue-tie) on her penultimate start; blinkers now given a go after one try in cheekpieces, but she will do well to dominate this field.

Below best at Southwell last time but had previously beaten Rodborough over C&D and went close to defying a 5lb rise on his return visit; gets in here off the same mark as that day; had 54 days off but likely contender if on his game.

All of his ten wins have been at Newcastle, including six over C&D; failed to beat a rival in his two runs this season but he bounced back with an emphatic win in this race last year; looks well handicapped on that form and is a player if he can get back on track.

Much better than this level in his prime; slow to come to hand back from a 615-day absence but his latest fourth (behind Invincible Crown) provided some evidence that he retains ability, weakening late having raced on the outside of the field; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but could be primed for something bigger.
