Form & Verdict
Steadily supported ahead of last month's debut at Chelmsford (7f) and he came through to win nicely in the end; the second and third have boosted the form a smidge since and he's respected under a 7lb penalty from a handy draw.

9st 2lb

J: Paddy Bradley

T: Charlie Fellowes

Began his career with two 7f AW wins and he was a fine second at Chester on his handicap debut last June (7f, good); fourth of 17 in a 1m handicap at Ascot when last seen nine months ago, a run that can be marked up as he raced away from the first three home; still has potential and he returns with his stable back in better form.

T: Charlie Fellowes

Began his career with two 7f AW wins and continued his progress with a close second in handicap at Chester (7f, good) four weeks ago, shaping as if he'll be at least as effective over 1m; this is a tougher test of his credentials but he's anything but exposed and needs serious consideration.

Promising gelding who is two from two, both wins over 7f on AW; his smart half-brother Urban Icon is equally as effective on turf as AW and his strong-travelling style suggests this course could suit; also has a handy inside stall, so there are reasons to be hopeful on handicap debut.

Showed improved form each start and narrowly failed to catch Arboreous for second at Chelmsford last time; is probably ready for a step up to 1m but at least this more-galloping 7f will help.

Fluffed his lines when odds-on for a C&D maiden in June and has run poorly a few times from the front since; inclined to pull hard since cheekpieces went on, so there are obvious risks on that front from stall 9 now switched to blinkers.
