Form & Verdict
Won his maiden over C&D but 5f has always been his best trip; has often been inclined to hang left this year and, while he's coming down the weights quickly, he's on the downgrade and hasn't won a handicap in a long time.

Form & Verdict
C&D win last September came off a 6lb lower mark; closely matched with Tinto on Thirsk running in early summer, back from two months off following a wind operation, and should do better than when bombing in first-time headgear latest.

He hasn't been at his best in recent starts but he has dipped to a dangerous mark and he has landed a good draw; this is a tough race in which to try and turn things around though.

Form & Verdict
Won this last year off a 3lb lower mark in first-time cheekpieces; lacks consistency now, which is hardly surprising at his age, and below par back in headgear last time, but he's capable of winning again for in-form yard.

Useful 2yo who proved tough to place last year; now 5lb lower than when winning on Tapeta last winter and an outside stall is fine for a potential front-runner, albeit his latest effort in the first-time visor (retained) will want overlooking.
