Form & Verdict
Much improved this spring, having been gelded, since upped in trip on the AW; only won by a neck at Kempton last week and isn't obviously well-in under a penalty but she shows a good attitude and the longer trip should be fine on pedigree.

Scarlet Moon

9st 9lb

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Archie Watson

Went close in tactical, four-runner race at Lingfield (1m6f, good to firm) in August but can't really blame the soft ground for last month's poor run at Goodwood and the booking of Oisin Murphy is not enough to tempt.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: Archie Watson

Often leads; unbeaten 3-3 on the AW but his most recent Flat win came on turf, at Sandown (1m6f, good) last July; was all the better for a break when going close at Lingfield (1m6f, good to firm) this month and seemed to handle good to soft ground over hurdles; thereabouts.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: Archie Watson

Turf/AW/hurdle winner; ran well over jumps during the winter but trailed in last on his return to the Flat at Goodwood where he ran in snatches; that was unlike him and he could bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Better as he's gained experience and gone up in distance, culminating in a second over 1m4f here on his comeback early last month; should be competitive off this sort of mark now handicapping under Billy Loughnane, who's 4-16 for the yard.

Runner-up in four of his five races, latterly in a small field on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (1m6f); this is deeper but can win a race off this mark and cheekpieces now go on.

Form & Verdict
First below-par effort since handicapping in first-time cheekpieces a month ago (headgear given another go despite that blip); had earlier just been edged out of it round here and shapes as though tonight's longer trip will be within range.

AW winner over 1m4f in UK; glimpses of ability over hurdles and not beaten far at Tramore last time over slightly further; can go well but might not want too much rain.

Three solid efforts in 1m2f nurseries last backend; proved easy to back when well held on his comeback early last month but this is less competitive going right up in distance; should fare better.

1m2f win at Newcastle last October came off 3lb lower; three heavy defeats this year, including tried in cheekpieces at Ayr three weeks ago; down in trip and class with new blinkers added; a revival wouldn't be a total bolt from the blue.

Won a Newcastle handicap (1m2f, AW) last October but he's returned from a break with two heavy defeats (1m2f/1m6f) this season; still has low-mileage but he needs a major revival back on turf.
