On the downgrade but retains sufficient ability to compete at this level; weak in the market and found nothing off the bridle at Kempton last time; return to this track might help but the losing run is gathering momentum.

Landed his fifth win at this venue when scoring on the turf track (5f, good to firm) in May; has held his form since, apart from when his saddle slipped at Windsor, and holds place prospects at least.

J: Ashley Lewis

T: Peter Crate

Scored at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month; recent Windsor run is best overlooked (saddle slipped); slightly out of the weights but the return to 6f won't be a problem; probably won't be far away.

Three-time Polytrack winner who has plenty of toe and does a lot of her racing over 5f, as when turning in her best turf effort to date last time (not saying much); may be vulnerable late but should be able to grab the stand rail in front if that's the plan.
