Seven-time AW winner and his last success was over 6f here last October; now 2lb lower than for that win but has a mixed record since and was never involved at Wolverhampton last Monday; comes with risks attached and he needs to raise his game back up in trip; cheekpieces reapplied.

Triple 6f Wolverhampton (AW) winner, the latest in a classified event; that level of form would see him go close but he's a bit to prove after being below par on his last two starts.

All five wins between July and October last year, at 6f and 5f, including this race (good); runner-up four times this year and her latest Hamilton run can be consigned to history as she'd run the day before; respected, although serious rain wouldn't be ideal.
