J: Jason Hart

T: James Owen

Runner-up off 1lb higher at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April and he's run respectably on his three starts since; this is less competitive than those last three outings and he might not be far away.

J: Kieran Shoemark

T: James Owen

Kept on for second at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April and he's run well in fourth on both starts since (1m2f/1m4f, good to soft/good to firm); he's never raced over a trip this short and it isn't an obvious plus, but on the flip-side a well-run race in this big field should play to his strengths.

J: Mason Paetel

T: James Owen

Fit from AW and hurdling when good second to Fierce Fortitude at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April, keeping on strongly; respectable fourth of 16 to a runaway winner at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) four weeks ago and should be okay back at 1m4f, but this race looks a bit too hot; 5lb claimer is recruited.

Form & Verdict
Cost 100,000gns as a yearling and finished a 6l third behind two promising horses at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm); has a lot to find on the figures with Ammes but improvement looks on the cards.

9st 9lb

J: Callum Hutchinson

T: Andrew Balding

Won three-runner Salisbury maiden (1m4f, good to firm) in June, on third start, but was safely held in both subsequent handicaps (1m6f/2m); needs new cheekpieces to generate some improvement.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

Improved with each 1m4f run when qualifying, beating two rivals at Salisbury in the third of them; unable to make an impact in a warm race at Sandown (1m6f) on handicap debut in July, and now he's bumped into another Prescott improver, but he still has potential up in trip on AW debut.

J: William Buick

T: Andrew Balding

Three runs in 1m4f maiden/novice company this summer, improving his RPR with each start; latest three-runner affair not the easiest to assess but he's likely to stay this longer trip and there should be more in the tank.
