Can lead; three AW wins for previous yard, over 7f, 6f and 5f; had highs and lows for this stable but good to soft was likely slower than ideal at Epsom in June and he put on a good show when winning a Racing League race at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) on Thursday; even with a penalty he's well treated on 5f AW form, so he deserves a look.

Ready C&D win on debut last month (soft); straightforward task at Leicester two weeks later (5f, good to firm) but she made a good fist of it on on her handicap debut at Newmarket 13 days ago (5f, good), giving best only to another progressive 3yo; 2lb higher but the return to 6f will suit; Group 1 entries suggest she's held in some regard and she's open to further progress; shortlisted.

Group 1-entered filly who created a pretty good impression when winning comfortably on debut at Yarmouth (6f, soft) last month, then easily beat modest rival in 5f match race a fortnight later (good to firm); has a lot more on her plate here but it's very hard to gauge the limit of her ability.

Now a 10yo but little sign of his enthusiasm waning, banging at the door in his first four starts this year; could only manage eighth of 18 at York last time (behind Rebel Path) but in a race in which the first six home were drawn in stalls 1 to 6, his effort from stall 17 can be marked up; should go well at rewarding odds.
