Wore cheekpieces for his two handicaps, on first occasion suffering plenty of trouble in running on his way from the rear to be second of 13 at Goodwood; 8-13 at Doncaster (again 1m2f; good to firm) two weeks later and duly went one better, by just a neck but the first two drew clear in five-runner race; up 3lb but probably more to give and this looks a good opportunity.

Dam progressed sharply once handicapping; still looked to be learning in two runs this spring and he appears on a workable mark in first-time headgear now upped in trip, so should be competitive.

Form & Verdict
Promising fifth in warm novice at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) in May; no chance against the 1-7 favourite in Hamilton maiden (1m3f, good) 13 days later but beat the other five; goes handicapping off what looks a realistic mark.

Inconsistent in his seven handicaps but he's won two of them; gelded before his successful return at Southwell (1m3f, AW) three weeks ago, when asserting by about 2l in six-runner race; 4lb higher today but probably okay on turf and has to be considered seriously.

Sole win came by a nose at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last August and he ran well when second of nine at Kempton (1m3f, AW) next time; possibly didn't handle the undulations of Newmarket (1m4f) in the Old Rowley Cup when last seen and has since been gelded; could be capable of bouncing back returned to the AW.

First win came by a nose when returning to form at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in August on seventh start; good second of nine off this mark at Kempton (1m3f, AW) nine days ago and he's bred to get this new trip of 1m4f; acts on good to firm; needs a second look.

Form & Verdict
Second in 1m Southwell maiden (AW) in March on second start; ran respectably at Leicester (7f, good to firm) next time but needs to bounce back from a poor handicap debut at York (1m2f, good; 14-1) four weeks ago; cheekpieces go on; on pedigree he should stay.

Beat 13 rivals to win at Redcar (7f, good to firm) last month on his second start of the season; failed to back that up when sixth there (7f, good) last time and this is his first crack at 6f, but he's not discounted.

Built on an encouraging AW reappearance when gaining a breakthrough win in 14-runner C&D handicap (good to firm; Mayo County third) 17 days ago; they were quite well strung out in behind (over 4l back to the fourth) so a 3lb rise looks manageable.

Form & Verdict
Won at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in May on third attempt at a handicap, asserting in a good scrap through the final 2f; his saddle slipped at Goodwood (1m2f, good; Displaying second) two weeks ago but seemingly only late on when he was already well held; needs to show that was only a blip.

Needs to put a poor performance at Chelmsford (1m5f, AW) last time behind him, but his record here this year (1m2f/11.5f) reads 131, both wins coming on good to firm ground; respected back at this venue, but easing ground could be a negative.

Catterick maiden winner (7f, soft) for Craig Lidster a year ago and put some modest efforts behind him when gaining his first success for this yard over C&D last month; below that form back on turf at Nottingham 12 days ago with cheekpieces removed but back on here and may come into the equation.
