Won at Haydock (1m2f) in May and from Dreams Adozen at Chester (upped to 1m4f, good to soft) in August; needs to bounce back from a poor show last time (first run on AW since his pre-handicap days) and has not raced on soft ground since debut; bit to prove on those counts but that Chester win was a comfortable one.

Drew clear to win by nearly 5l at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) in May, his second handicap, but found one too good when odds-on to follow up later that month and again let favourite backers down when only sixth of nine at Doncaster (1m2f, good) in July; moves up in trip here and may still have potential but has a point to prove.

Lightly raced 3yo who has been tailed off on turf the last twice, either side of a wind op; has plenty to prove but the return to AW offers a glimmer of hope as he showed promise on Polytrack/Tapeta last year; blinkers go on.

Runner-up on two of his four 2yo starts (all over 1m on AW); beaten 8l when fourth of six on last month's handicap/seasonal debut at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) but that was a warm little race and he could improve for it; this Masar colt is not ruled out now upped further in trip.

T: Martin Keighley

Raised in grade after dominating single-figure fields at Ludlow (good to soft) and Fontwell (good), making most on both occasions; a collective rise of 17lb (Freddie Keighley claimed the 10lb last time) could spell danger but hard to dismiss.
