Form & Verdict
Headed to Nottingham last week as a 16-race maiden but had been running well and he stormed home by nearly 10l in a first-time visor (1m2f, good); turned out quickly under a penalty and hard to beat if in the same form.

Has won four of his 17 turf races at up to 1m2f; respectable 2.75l third of 18 at York last time (1m2.5f good); interesting, although pulled hard and didn't seem to get home on only previous try at 1m4f.

One of the favourites when beaten 3l after a slow start at Redcar (1m2f); that made it 0-22 but there's a race in him and he now tries more new headgear.

Arrives with something to prove having been well beaten here on her two starts this summer (1m2f/1m4f); however, she was progressive last July/September, winning at up to 2m, and she won over hurdles in March; possibilities if she's back on song in a first-time tongue-tie; watch the betting.
