Resumed winning ways at Nottingham (1m) in April but his form has dipped of late, just sixth in 1m Ayr handicap last time; others appeal more.

Won on his Nottingham reappearance (8.3f, good) last month and was then second at Leicester; possibilities on those two efforts but latest Beverley run was underwhelming.

Turned things around with a rallying win on his Nottingham reappearance (8.3f, good) last month and he backed that up with a good second from wide draw at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm); remains well handicapped on his best form and he's a key player on this drop back in trip.

Fairly useful four-time AW Flat winner for Charlie Johnston but 0-17 on turf for that yard; ran poorly at Lingfield (AW) 16 days ago and changed hands for 1,000gns since; best watched on hurdles debut.

1m AW winner who broke his turf duck over 1m2f at Nottingham (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; below that level in two further starts, including from this mark latest; bit to prove.

Form & Verdict
Second at both Redcar (7f, good to firm) and here (7f, soft) on her first two handicap starts in May; up 2lb and weakened quickly out of it when well below par at Ripon (1m, good to soft) latest; unexposed and an each-way player if bouncing back up again in trip.

Form & Verdict
Showed some promise when second in a Haydock novice event (1m, soft) on her third start; well beaten in two subsequent handicaps; slipping to a more realistic mark but may need a further favour from the handicapper; cheekpieces go on.

Beaten a long way on her Doncaster debut (6.5f, good) last June and was a well-held fifth in final two 2yo runs; this longer trip could help on handicap debut but she needs significant improvement after 250 days off.
