Form & Verdict
Has done well since returning to turf, winning over C&D (good) last month and going down by just a head and a short head when third of nine at Doncaster (6f, good) six days ago; already due to go up 1lb and a player in his current mood, albeit he is unraced on ground faster than good.

J: Joey Haynes

Couple of 6f wins at Brighton last term; proved resurgent over C&D (good to soft) last week, going down by only a whisker; now 2lb lower and due to go back up 6lb in future; leading player.

J: Mikkel Mortensen

Won twice here (6f) last year but on a downward trajectory since then; shaped okay here (fifth) on return from a 266-day absence in early September but his more recent AW efforts (6f-7f) have failed to offer further encouragement.

Scored three times off higher marks last year but has a doubt over current form, having posted two substandard efforts since belatedly returning to action.

Form & Verdict
Went through a frustrating losing run prior to winning twice on the AW (6f/1m) in March; not disgraced in two starts back on turf, but not sure a sharp 6f on fast ground is entirely suitable.

J: Joe Bradnam

Had a luckless passage at Bath last month but had a clearer run through when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) five days ago, travelling strongly and doing it comfortably; carries a 4lb penalty for that success and looks the one to beat.

Tough sort who last won on turf more than a year ago but he had a luckless run at Bath recently (extended 5f, good; no aids, as today); acts on this track and versatile regarding the ground; can't rule out.

J: Kieren Fox

T: Tony Carroll

Hold-up performer who won four times last year including off 4lb higher at Brighton (7f, good to firm); two solid efforts on AW since rejoining Tony Carroll last month and he could be a big factor if he gets the breaks back on turf; tongue-tie and blinkers are removed but he has won without headgear.

Navan maiden winner (5.7f, good to yielding) for Aidan O'Brien last August, but unplaced in all six starts for this yard (tried in various headgear combinations); best watched for now.

Form & Verdict
1-15 when trained in France (0-8 on turf); makes his debut for his new yard (same owners) after 58 days off, but his French form suggests this trip on a quick surface may be an insufficient test.

Form & Verdict
Four course wins since last summer, but proved he could be successful elsewhere when scoring at Bath (5.7f, good) last time (runner-up has won since); up another 5lb in his bid for the four-timer and this the classiest race he has ever contested, but still a major player given his rich vein of form.
