On a dangerous mark and he could get away with this trip in a well-run race but he took a nasty fall at Chepstow seven weeks ago and perhaps best watched on the back of that.

She's done well since switched to handicaps, winning over 6f at Southwell in March and C&D last month; only tenth at Newcastle two weeks ago but that was a stronger race and she didn't get chance to show what she could do as she saw no daylight from over 1f out; major player back down in class.

In good form across his four starts this year, scoring twice (5.5f/5f) and being placed on the other two occasions, latterly when third back at Beverley (not clear run) one month ago; all those runs came on good to firm so he probably doesn't want too much of the forecast rain; otherwise hard to knock.
