Form & Verdict
Again inclined to pull hard at Bath last time and has since been gelded; possesses plenty of toe and has shown enough in three runs on turf (5f-6f) to suggest this mark will be within range if he's more amenable.

The winner of two small-fileld 5f nurseries for Archie Watson last season, one of them at this track; the handicapper has been on top so far this year and a full revival is required.

Lightly raced 3yo who won two nurseries last year and is below his last winning mark; Windsor last month was a step back in the right direction but he needs another today if he's to be a serious force.

Last Tuesday's Thirsk near-miss, on his nursery debut, was up with his best work and he looked very unlucky not to win; can only look well treated off the same mark on his AW debut.

Expensive to follow in first seven starts but he's scored in cheekpieces in two of his last three runs, including a comfortable success at Pontefract (6f, soft) last Monday; this is tougher under a penalty but he's open to more progress and is versatile ground-wise; big player.

Had been expensive to follow but first-time cheekpieces did the trick when a clearcut winner at Brighton (maiden over an extended 5f; good); now 5lb higher than when narrowly held in his two previous handicaps but that rise is erased by Jack Callan's claim; soft ground a first.

Consistent yet frustrating sort who has a habit of finishing second and has been a beaten favourite on four occasions; comes with some risk but first-time headgear may enable him to go one better.

Steady progression in maiden/novice company at 5f and 6f, mainly round Chepstow against her own sex, but she'll need another good step forward now switched to nursery company.

Drawn wide on her Chester debut and came back to that sort of level, having run poorly on rain-softened ground when favourite at Catterick, from the front over C&D last time; one to consider.
