Started the season well, winning at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May; less competitive since, including when fifth of eight over 1m at Carlisle five weeks ago; competes from an easing mark with blinkers replacing usual cheekpieces.

Turned things around after a break when scoring at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) in May but she failed to back that up over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago; still looks on a workable mark but she's hard to predict and needs to bounce back again.

1m on good to soft ground no problem and he is feasibly weighted on his best efforts last year; should be sharper with his recent return to action under his belt and he has the assistance of a leading amateur in the saddle; one for the shortlist.

No wins in 12 but didn't run badly in his first two runs after wind surgery (here over 7f/1m at Ayr) and it wasn't his first poor run on turf softer than good last time at Beverley; off since early May but not ruled out with a hood added.
