Debuts for a new yard back from a short break in first-time headgear; two Tapeta efforts off higher marks earlier in the year, including back from a layoff, mean he can't be ruled out.

5f maiden winner at Goodwood (good to firm) last June; reached the frame for the third time in handicaps this year when fourth of eight at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago but he'll need more to get his head back in front.

Form & Verdict
Made a promising debut when second of nine on last month's Salisbury debut (5f, good to firm; 18-1), but was well held at Bath (5.7f, good) a fortnight ago; return to this trip should suit but he now has a bit to prove.

3yo who won at Epsom (6f, good to soft) in August on first start since being gelded; hasn't run badly when fifth at Chester (6f, heavy) and here (6f, heavy) on his two starts since but needs something extra today.

Acts well on soft and heavy and appeared to appreciate good to soft ground when beating six rivals at Epsom (6f; first run since gelded) in August; was up against it from a wide draw at Chester since but he came home strongly and has more of a level playing field this time; possibilities.

Back from a break (gelded) before doubling his tally for the season in 6f handicap at Epsom (good to soft) 19 days ago; up 4lb but the runner-up has gone in since so he's in the picture if he can overcome his wide berth.

Finished behind Hello Isla over C&D 19 days ago but he ran creditably in the circumstances and new blinkers could prompt extra; dropped 2lb and he's one to consider.

Beaten around 5l when third of four at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) but he went backwards from that at Chester (6f, good) on his next start; reported to have never travelled when beating only one rival on handicap debut at Leicester (5f, good) five weeks ago and now steps back up to 6f for AW debut.

Like Dandy's Rocket, his second start stands out and he's been gelded before switching to nurseries; this half-brother to five winners makes more appeal though.

Some promise when third of seven on her Kempton debut (6f, AW) last month, but no improvement when beating one home at Windsor (6f, good) 11 days ago; needs to step up and not sure dropping in trip is the answer.

Found things happening too quickly for her in the home straight at Kempton on debut 12 days ago (6f), but she was plugging on for third and can build on that effort in time; stable's record here means she can't be discounted.
