Collared close home over 1m6f here last time; just as effective at 1m4f last year but nudged back up 2lb and no win since August 2024.

Latest Kempton effort (1m4f) wasn't one of his best but he is on a feasible mark on last year's best; Rossa Ryan booked and a better effort should be forthcoming.

Kept on for fair third in first-time blinkers (retained) at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month, when jockey said saddle slipped; now 0-6 but not ruled out on the back of that latest effort.

Campaigned over further for the past year or so and gained sole win at 2m (AW); not crying out for this marked drop back in distance.

Overall record of 1-19 but his win was off 2lb lower at Kempton (2m, AW) in June and he's posted some creditable efforts since; finished a remote second on turf here (1m5f, good) last time but that was behind a major improver and he's respected back up in trip; cheekpieces added.

J: Ben Ffrench Davis

T: Dominic Ffrench Davis

Sole success in 18 starts under rules came at Kempton (2m, AW) last month, but he does act on turf and the form of his latest fifth of eight at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) is working out quite well; best form would give him a chance.

3 yo Colt

OR: 69

Form & Verdict
Won on handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in June and fair third of six at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago on first turf start; the drop back in trip may help and he's one to consider.

He made a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford in June (1m2f) when sent off at 100-1; back at that level when a close third of nine at Wolverhampton ten days ago (1m4f); in the mix with a repeat.

J: Morgan Cole

Kept on gamely to cause 100-1 shock over C&D on handicap debut in June and has held his form pretty well since; can sometimes race a bit too freely but probably won't be far away.

3 yo Filly

OR: 67

Form & Verdict
No better than fifth across her three 2yo starts, and beaten about 6l when fourth of nine on last month's handicap and seasonal debut over C&D (good to firm); however, she faded late and may have needed the run, and her attractive pedigree provides hope she's capable of better.

Six-race maiden who failed to beat a rival (on turf) the last twice; finished fifth to a subsequently smart filly at Kempton on last AW attempt and that effort gives cause for some optimism.
