Form & Verdict
Won twice over 6f and was largely consistent for Hilal Kobeissi last year; makes stable debut after 223-day absence but, given his tendency to race freely, this drop back to 5f could be a good move.

Justified favouritism at Bath (off 2lb lower) on stable/seasonal debut but has regressed since; chance depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear.

Won twice on turf last summer (5.2f/5f); seemingly a shade too high in weights on AW afterwards and ran poorly when last in action three weeks ago, but has edged back down to a workable mark and is the only one in this line-up to have run since the autumn.

In excellent form on AW when last season in the autumn, winning twice under Brandon Wilkie at Chelmsford (6f/5f); also very well suited by this track but 146-day break may have checked his momentum.

Had career-best spell of form when cheekpieces were added last spring/summer, collecting three wins (5f-6f) along the way, but had lost her way by the autumn; suited by this C&D and seems versatile regarding ground but needs five-month break to have done her good; had wind op in November.
