Landed his fifth win on turf, at Ripon (1m, good; made all) in April; ran okay at Hamilton (1m1f, good) 18 days ago when trying to dominate but was pestered; needs to be able to have his own way up front to be seen to best effect and there are others here who may take him on.

Two of her three wins have come at Beverley (5f, good to firm/soft) and she has dropped back below her last winning mark; ran well on seasonal reappearance at Wetherby (5.5f; third) but had no in-running luck at Beverley subsequently; isn't a forlorn hope.

Redcar winner in May (7f, soft) and has just struggled with his mark since then; however, it's dropping back to a more tempting level and the recent rain should be a blessing.

Did a lot of her racing for the Kubler yard in sprints but proved fine over 7f last summer, including a win here; offered little on her comeback for new trainer (Local Bay looks his best shout) three weeks ago, however, and has to prove her stamina.

Form & Verdict
Has come a long way down weights and last time was better, seemingly get outstayed over the stiff 7f at Carlisle (good); questionable whether the recent rain will have helped but a fair shout otherwise in new headgear.
