Form & Verdict
Would have won with any luck on handicap debut at Bath (1m, good to firm) and again found plenty of trouble before getting up in the nick of time at Wolverhampton (9.4f); he's 4lb badly in here under a penalty (only raised 2lb) but looks very capable of being better than his current mark; up in trip here but he's by a Derby winner.

J: Sean Bowen

T: Mickey Bowen

Dual Flat winner (AW and turf; 1m1f-1m4f) but form slumped after a promising start for this stable; however, he produced a much-improved effort when runner-up at Ffos Las (2m4f, good) last month on his fourth hurdle start and a repeat of that performance would give him leading claims.

Quite useful on the Flat but was 300-1 for a recent novice here and a long way behind Fairye Forth.

Dual Flat winner with some fairly useful middle-distance form on his CV; unseated rider at second flight on hurdle debut in September, though, and was well beaten at Fontwell the following month.

Form & Verdict
Gelded ahead of Kempton reappearance and having attracted support (1m4f; 5-4) he ran on well to lead in the dying strides; 6lb rise seems harsh enough but he's clearly turned a corner and cheekpieces are now added.

Scored over C&D when hiked up in trip for seasonal/handicap debut in April but not a great deal has gone to plan since; reverts to the Flat after two disappointing hurdle runs; needs to get career back on track.

Fair Flat racer who won 1m4f AW handicap in April (RPR 68); soundly beaten after racing too freely on last month's hurdling debut at Fontwell (good to soft) but might be seen to better effect on the quicker ground here.

Form & Verdict
Beaten a head on nursery debut over 9.4f at Wolverhampton and shaped well back there a month ago in a race that didn't pan out too favourably; good chance that she'll stay this longer trip.
