J: Paddy Bradley

T: Mark Loughnane

First visit here proved a winning one when taking handicap over this trip (good to firm) last May; flopped on his second go one month later and only bits and pieces of form since; career-low mark and cheekpieces (0-3) make a return after two-year absence.

J: Paddy Bradley

His last win was at Brighton (7f, goof to firm) last May but that was off 11lb higher and he's shown signs of a revival on Tapeta recently; should get a good tow into this race and could be dangerous back on turf.

Form & Verdict
All four of his wins from 48 starts have been on AW, with the most recent coming at Lingfield over 7f in March off 8lb lower; disappointed in a classified event next time and seemed to hold every chance when fifth of 11 at Chelmsford two weeks ago; place claims returning to grass.

Can lead; four AW wins at 7f but 0-11 on turf and the way he was finishing at Brighton in May suggests he won't be one of the stronger finishers with extra emphasis on stamina on this track.

1-9 for Clive Cox, the victory coming in a 7f fillies' handicap at Doncaster last July (good ground); 2lb below that mark now and although she was well beaten at Brighton on last month's stable debut, she could take a good step forward.

Sole success came on handicap debut on Lingfield AW in April last year when trained by Andrew Balding; form tailed off subsequently and sold for 8,000gns in October; inauspicious seasonal/stable debut when last of five over C&D 13 days ago; first-time tongue-tie now applied alongside usual cheekpieces; hard to fancy.
