Both wins this year have come on turf (1m4f), but he is a four-time winner on Tapeta; finished behind two of these when sixth of 13 at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta) seven days ago and has work to do in order to reverse the form on the same terms.

His only two races with claimer Joe Leavy on board were also his two wins this season, over 1m4f at Doncaster in May and Brighton two weeks ago; pretty reliable on AW; back up 5lb now and possibly now a bit high in the weights, but he has to be in each-way calculations.

Ran respectably when ridden very patiently in first two handicaps and took form to whole new level when allowed to bowl along in front over C&D (good to soft) last month, winning unchallenged by 12l; went up 10lb for that but has run well on the Flat since; could take some catching.

Held up; his only two runs here were over 1m4f in 2023, when winning in July (good to soft) and a creditable third in October; back-to-form third at Brighton (Zhang Fei second) on latest start, when he made up plenty of late ground, so needs a second look.

Dual-purpose performer; all of his four wins have been on AW but he faded into fourth of eight on Polytrack here (1m4f) 18 days ago; that wasn't bad but he's struggled in three previous Flat runs on turf and has questions to answer back in this sphere.

Brighton specialist (6-12 there) who has run just once here; pipped over 1m2f on soft ground in last week's attempt to complete a quick Brighton double, after a 1m win on good to firm; both were under Oliver Carmichael; due to be 5lb higher in future handicaps than he is today, so shortlisted.
