Raced only on good or softer on turf; on a hat-trick after 1m4f wins at Ffos Las and Thirsk in recent weeks; quick ground would be an unknown but he can't be dismissed in his current mood.

Reliable and progressive on a variety of ground and courses, although has never raced at Newmarket; third in this race last year; hit new heights at Epsom (1m4f) on last two outings and makes each-way appeal.

Reserve; form figures 121 at 1m4f on good to firm last May-August (not at this meeting) on his only appearances at Ascot; in career-best form over 1m4f at Epsom (good/soft) on his latest two outings, which sees him raised another 4lb today and into a much better race, but he's one to consider.

J: Billy Loughnane

Finished fifth in this last year and it was just his second visit to Epsom when impressively landing the five-runner Great Metropolitan over C&D (good) in April; 4lb rise (arguably could have been worse) pushes him into uncharted territory but he has won on good to soft and is a player under Billy Loughnane.

Not the force of old on AW and he refused to race at Lingfield in February; made it 0-7 on turf when 5l sixth of nine here (1m, good to firm) last Monday but that wasn't devoid of promise as he was denied a clear run and kept on pretty nicely; he's not ruled out each-way back up in trip.

Won 1m2f novices at Lingfield (AW) and Goodwood (good; unraced on firmer) with 350-day absence in between; came up shy when favourite for handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in November but it's unlikely he was seen to best effect in a steadily run race; more to offer, including at about 1m4f.

Hasn't always looked straightforward but he did nothing wrong when getting off the mark in style in a 1m4f Newmarket handicap (good to firm) on Saturday, pulling 5l clear of an in-form 3yo who was in turn clear of the rest; a 6lb penalty may not stop him if in similar form.
