J: Kevin Stott

Up-and-coming handicapper last summer when winning first two starts at this level before finishing an excellent second of 24 in the 5f handicap here (good to firm) last June; first home of the 3yos when fifth in the Ayr Gold Cup (soft) last September and may do better this year; not ruled out now fitted with a tongue-tie on second run back.

Second of 24 in the 5f 3yo handicap at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) last June and he showed good speed before fading into sixth of 19 over 6f here (good) last October, when last seen; wind op since; the drop back in trip could be a positive move on his reappearance; can make a bold bid.

J: Warren Fentiman

T: Kevin Ryan

Classy front-running 3yo who was runner-up in the 5f handicap at Royal Ascot (good to firm) and fifth in the Ayr Gold Cup three weeks ago, when 6f on soft ground probably stretched his stamina; today's conditions should be ideal and he may not have reached his ceiling just yet; big player.

Course specialist who has won over 1m here on his last two starts (good to firm; for Taryn Langley), most recently 19 days ago off a 4lb lower mark than today's; needs things to drop right given the way he's ridden but he can't be dismissed now returned to 7f.

Three wins (7f-1m) and three second-place finishes (6f-1m) at Yarmouth last season; not hit the same heights this time round and although soft ground was a valid excuse last time, he needs a full revival to take this.

Form & Verdict
Made a promising debut at Newmarket (6f, good) last August; left Dominic Ffrench Davis after and well held in two runs for this yard (stiff task at York); gelded prior to his reappearance; needs to get back near that debut effort.

Ran well in a 6f Newmarket maiden on debut 12 months ago but there has been little to celebrate since, including both runs for this yard; tumbling down the weights but not a solid option.

Early promise in a 6f Newmarket maiden last August but he hasn't approached that form since and failed to beat a rival on handicap/trainer debut at Pontefract (5f, good to firm) in June; needs lots more back at 6f.
