Three-time C&D winner, most recently off much reduced mark on good to soft ground last month; bettered that performance when close/clear second here (1m, heavy) a fortnight ago and can't be ignored in current mood.

Seven of his eight wins have come at Ffos Las and the ground can't be too soft for him, with five of those successes coming on heavy; back off last winning mark and although unplaced in four visits here, he can't be dismissed.

Gained his last four wins on heavy ground at Ffos Las (1m-1m2f); handles fast ground but is yet to strike form after three runs this season and might still be too high in the weights.

Form & Verdict
Landed a gamble at Ayr (1m, good) in May, his seventh start for Bernard Llewellyn, and went very close at Hamilton (8.3f, soft) later that month; today's longer trip will also suit but he needs to get back on track after two below-par efforts.

Sole handicap win over 1m on good ground but he has form on soft and heavy; signs of a revival two starts ago but he failed by a long chalk to confirm it on this track since; still capable of going well off his reduced mark if refitting cheekpieces helps.

Needs to bounce back quickly from a duff effort on Sunday but made the frame off today's mark three consecutive times beforehand and is very well suited by this C&D; very versatile regarding ground; a possible.

Acts on any ground and has won on soft and heavy; has been a bit up and down this season, but she got back on the scoresheet with cosy win in classified at Ffos Las (1m2f, good) last week; still looks feasibly treated back in a handicap and she's a big player if this sets up for her closing style.

Eight-race maiden; beaten out of sight on stable debut in June but fared much better when second in first-time cheekpieces here (1m, heavy) a fortnight ago, albeit after setting a steady pace; moves back up in trip today and remains quite well handicapped on best form for Charles Hills.
