Form & Verdict
Probably overdid things when attempting to recover from a slow start over C&D (fourth of ten, beaten over 6l; 4-1) in August; that form appears solid, with the winner being a promising individual, and the runner-up successful since; with that experience banked, there's every likelihood he'll have a say.

Went close in C&D handicap (good) at last year's Dante meeting in May; had been gelded when one of three of these who didn't see which way the winner went at Goodwood in May but better effort, albeit well held, when second at Beverley (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; not fully exposed and gets first-time cheekpieces.

Low-mileage 4yo who showed promise in handicaps at around 1m2f last year, finishing runner-up twice on good; shaped as if needing his Goodwood reappearance after a gelding operation and remains one who should be up to winning handicaps this season; non-runner due to unsuitable ground on good to firm at Windsor earlier in the week but should have a big say if allowed to take his chance.
