Form & Verdict
Useful at 1m for the Gosden yard earlier in career but he didn't hold his form in 2022 and was up and down for this trainer in the first half of 2023; undoubtedly well treated if compass reset after absence and with regular cheekpieces left off but clearly risky.

Form & Verdict
Winless this year but some good efforts in defeat, including a second of 18 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster (soft), and he came from a long way back when second to a progressive one back at Doncaster (7f, soft; favourite) on Saturday; a good pace would suit in this small field and rain welcomed.

Soft-ground specialist who landed a fifth success when scoring at Ayr (1m) in September; yet to get going in three starts this year but he's edging down the weights and the booking of Colin Keane catches the eye; requires monitoring in the market with every drop of rain in his favour.

Form & Verdict
A long road back since his latest win, at Ayr (1m, good to soft; has won on soft) last September but he's favourably treated now and there have been glimmers of a revival, including at Ayr (1m, good to firm) last month when slightly checked in his challenge; not discounted.

10yo who's the sole winner (seven times) in this, if not since autumn 2023, but last two outings at Bath have advertised the need to give him a longer run over 1m2f now; no ground or track issues, and he's among the likeliest.

J: Taryn Langley

No win since September 2023 but he is operating off a much-reduced mark now and he emerged from the pack to take a never-nearer third here eight days ago (1m2f, good); might need them to go too fast up front to win but he holds each-way claims all the same.

Form & Verdict
Best form for Roger Varian when winning at about 1m on good and good to firm in August before a useful effort when third of ten in a big Ripon handicap in July; sold for 80,000gns since; taken out of a soft-ground race on intended debut for new trainer but form claims if the surface suits.

No turf win since 2022 but he has won three AW handicaps in the last 14 months; should be well treated but recent efforts haven't been his best; this is a drop in class so not dismissed, even though the return of cheekpieces wouldn't be an obvious plus based on previous usage.
