In fine form lately, winning here (1m6f) last month and bolting up by 5l at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) a week ago; drop in trip not completely ideal, but she is 4lb well in under her penalty so should still take all the beating.

Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing.

Three of his six wins have come here (1m3f/1m4f) and was running consistently well up until January, but quiet in his last three starts; just 1lb above his last winning mark, but he needs a resurgence with cheekpieces reapplied.
