Form & Verdict
Hasn't threatened in her three handicaps and was slowly away when sixth at Wolverhampton last time (7f, Tapeta; favourite) in first-time blinkers (retained); however, she's lightly raced and her best performance came here in April; could have a bigger run in her at some stage.

Best effort when third of nine on her Newcastle reappearance (1m, Tapeta) in April, but has regressed since including in both handicaps; needs the drop in trip and first-time blinkers to make a difference, but even so she isn't drawn to advantage.

Form & Verdict
Recent form-figures don't make appealing viewing but he ran pretty well over an inadequate 6f on last month's stable debut at Ripon, and soft ground may not have suited at Carlisle subsequently; effective over C&D and no surprise if he runs well off a dangerous mark.

Spent most of a long career racing at shy of 1m and didn't look to see it out in one try over this far (C&D); not as good now and can miss the break and/or pull hard, so comes with risks attached.

3-45, the wins coming over sprint trips on Tapeta at Wolverhampton; hard to fancy on the majority of this season's form but he was having his first crack at 7f when a close fourth of seven in a Catterick classified a fortnight ago, and shouldn't be ruled out now back in a handicap.
