Opened his turf account when making a winning yard debut off 7lb lower at Redcar (6f, good to firm) last month; placed in two starts since, latest at that same track over this trip (ahead of Cooperation); comes here in good form and looks likely to go well again.

Gained first turf win over 6f here (good to firm; stable debut) on penultimate start, and backed up with a solid effort (runner-up) at Doncaster; no issue with this longer trip and, while a combined 7lb rise will make life tougher, he's the one who arrives in the best form.

J: Cian Horgan

T: Roger Fell

Five-time AW winner who made his belated breakthrough on turf when scoring on recent stable debut at Redcar (6f); up 5lb but he was as good as ever last time and has claims if he can back that up; last run was on good to firm but he's also effective on good to soft.

Form & Verdict
Three wins in Ireland, the latest in a 7f handicap at Dundalk last October; satisfactory start for his new yard when fourth at Chelmsford 18 days ago (7f); that was his rider's first ride under rules and he looked polished for one who can claim 7lb at this level; he'll need a good pace back at 6f but that would appear likely.

All wins at 6f up to two years ago but last five successes at 5f, most recently off much the same mark at Wolverhampton before Christmas; has beaten a total of two rivals in his last three starts, however, so more needs to be done back at 6f; cheekpieces refitted in place of a visor.

Well handicapped on her form for Chris Dwyer last season and she travelled well for a long way on her stable debut/reappearance at Chelmsford 18 days ago (7f; just over 1l behind The Cola Brasil); can get it wrong at the start but there should be a pace to aim at and she's one to consider.
