3yo who won a Newcastle handicap (1m, AW) in June and he bounced back with a good second when upped to 1m2f at Ayr (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago; still has potential after only seven starts and he's respected off unchanged mark.

Plenty of good runs this summer including a win at Haydock (1m, good) last month but he didn't fire when favourite at Pontefract last time; that was in a tactical race but he needs to step up again after that and he doesn't have a great record at this trip.

10yo who's had ten wins, the latest over 1m last July/November; he's back 1lb above his last winning mark but needs to step up a couple of gears following his three runs this year; it was on fifth start that he got competitive again last season but this is a weak race; 7lb claimer is recruited.

All of his seven turf wins have come on good or slower ground but he's effective on good to firm; last success was 12 months ago but he's finished close up as favourite in his last two runs (1m/1m1f) and should be in the mix again.
