7yo who was resurgent with wins at Lingfield (7f) in his first three runs for Rod Millman but he came up short after another slow start there last time; remains well handicapped on old form but he needs to step up again after that last run and he's 0-10 at this trip.

W: 9st 9lb

4 yo Colt

OR: 72

Form & Verdict
Returned after a gelding operation with a good fourth here (1m) last month and the step up to 1m2f may have stretched him last time; won over C&D last winter and he could be dangerous on his drop back to this trip.

Three good runs from four starts (all here) since he returned to action in December, most notably with a 7f win nine days ago but he looked just as effective last term over 1m as 7f; up 4lb but firmly in the mix.

Form & Verdict
Completed a Tapeta double off this mark at Southwell (7f) in November but he's finished down the field in last three runs and was well below form at Wolverhampton last time; has some questions to answer and he needs to bounce back near best; cheekpieces removed.

Two of his four wins have been at this track and latest was over 8.6f in January; creditable efforts in three of his four runs since including a close third at Southwell (7f) last time; on unchanged mark back at this track and he's an interesting contender.

Form & Verdict
Well handicapped on his best form but he's not easy to predict and was only seventh of ten at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) 15 days ago; that took his record to 0-10 and others are more convincing.

Form & Verdict
Has mixed record in eight runs but he returned to form with a clearcut win at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in October; left Marco Botti for 20,000gns later that month; has 5lb rise to deal with on return for new yard but he hit a personal best last time and is still unexposed on Polytrack; respected.

Both wins for Marco Botti came at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack); it's possible to forgive his stable debut at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) eight days ago when returning from 102 days off and hanging badly off the final bend; tongue-tie joins the hood.
