Has the form to feature but he's pulled up the last twice and connections reach for another change of headgear. |

1-11 over hurdles; returned from break with two very respectable fourths at end of last season (2m1f/2m3f, good) but has a point to prove after lacklustre performance at Southwell in May. |

Signed off for Fergal O'Brien with two wins last autumn (2m4f/2m) but has not made any further progress for current stable, albeit this year's four runs have all been respectable; others have more pressing claims. |

Seems well suited by this track but was well beaten on last month's chasing debut at Carlisle (2m5f, good) and is now 0-25 under all codes; 3lb out of the weights today; others preferred. |

0-16 over hurdles but all five of this season's runs were respectable and he continues to edge down the weights; swaps cheekpieces for refitted blinkers here; probably won't be far away. |

Just one win from 11 starts over hurdles but that came at this track (2m) in May and he was a creditable second behind Jeteye over C&D (good) the following month; now returns after 103 days off but he's unexposed as a stayer and has claims if he can pick up where he left off; yard won this last year. |

Came good over hurdles at ninth attempt, beating Dapper Gent in 2m seller here (good to soft) last month; stayed on for respectable sixth of 14 when back in a handicap here (2m, good) later in May but has stamina to prove today. |

Longstanding maiden who was soundly beaten at Newcastle last time in a first-time hood (retained); however, he's run pretty well on both previous visits to Musselburgh and the tongue-tie is back on today, which he wore when a fair fourth over C&D (good to soft) in November; interesting contender. |

Made all at Perth (2m4f, good) in September before close second of 15 over this C&D (good to soft) in October; well-beaten fourth at Musselburgh last time but faced tough task from out of the handicap in that Class 2; could make a bold bid now back down in grade off his proper mark. |
