5 yo Gelding

Form & Verdict
Has been found a couple of less-competitive handicaps lately and he isn't well in under the penalty, with him set to be 2lb lower from tomorrow; having Kaiya Fraser take off 3lb won't hurt, though, and he's adaptable regarding the ground.

Well handicapped and although he is now 0-19 for this yard, he has run several good races in defeat; latest Wolverhampton second was one of them and he is more appealing than many.

Some good runs during his losing streak and did well to finish second at Bath in the penultimate one after starting slowly; his sixth of 17 back there was in a competitive race.

Dual C&D winner last year (good and soft), each time off 3lb lower; in fine form this spring, latterly off this mark from a wide stall at Beverley, and looks set to go well once more.

Three course wins, the most recent from a 1lb higher mark (6f, good; 5-1) in April; runner-up at Beverley (5f) in June and thereabouts on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (2l fourth) three weeks ago; likely to give her best; chance.

Won this race last year, one of three C&D victories, and the recent rain was perfectly timed for him; he's never won off a mark quite this high but returns to his favourite course in good form.

Showed enough during a limited campaign last year to suggest he's up to featuring off a career-low mark if ready to go after more than seven months off; interesting to see how he goes in the market.

Form & Verdict
Soft-ground winner on debut last summer, which gives hope back from seven months off; held a few times in handicaps latterly, though, and has only run over 6f to date, so would want to see a bit of market confidence on the drop to 5f.

Won this two years ago and has a few C&D near-misses to his name too; a 6lb rise for recent Nottingham victory leaves little room for manoeuvre but he helps give Paul Midgley, who also runs Birkenhead, a decent hand.

Into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of dash, setting a good pace at Catterick 17 days ago before weakening into third (Tuscan Point second but 8lb worse off today); likely to make a beeline for the stands' rail and more minor money could be on the cards.

The old man of the party but he still likes to get on with it and has a good record here; solid comeback second on AW in January wasn't built on but he's back down to the same mark he won this race from last year; that was a fourth C&D win and he has to enter calculations.
