Form & Verdict
Won at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in June on penultimate run for Michael Wigham; however, the AW may be more his scene nowadays and he was a well-beaten third of five here (1m4f, good to soft) last time; makes stable debut having changed hands for 10,000gns.

Form & Verdict
Tailed off in Leicester novice (1m2f) last month but had shown some ability previously (1m/1m2f); goes handicapping off a modest mark in a first-time tongue-tie, and her dam was a 1m4f Listed winner; this lightly raced 4yo is a possible improver; one to watch in the betting.

Fine pedigree but finished a well-beaten last of five on her debut at Kempton (1m) in September; bit better on her reappearance when seventh of nine at Chelmsford (1m2f, also AW; kept on) last month; will probably be seen to best effect when handicapping over further.

Nice pedigree, but finished a well-beaten last of five on her Kempton debut (1m, Polytrack) last September; bred to appreciate the longer trip and a hood is given a go, but she still has enough to prove against the 3yos.

Form & Verdict
Very lightly raced 5yo who won handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f, heavy) last October; beaten about 7l when below-form third of six on recent stable and seasonal debut at Chepstow (1m2f, good); the drop back in trip isn't an obvious plus but she could build on that latest run and retains potential.

Lightly raced 5yo; made all at Ffos Las (1m1f, good) last month and ran better than her finishing position suggests when sixth at Chester (12.5f, good to soft) a fortnight ago; won't mind how the ground is riding; major player back down in trip.

Very lightly raced 5yo who made it 2-3 in handicaps when comfortably making all at Ffos Las (1m1f, good) this month on second stable start; won over 11.4f on heavy ground at Windsor last October and she could have untapped potential at this sort of distance; on the shortlist.

His last four wins have come here (1m2f, various ground) and he returned to form with 2l third at Bath (1m2f, good to firm) last Friday; below last winning mark and could play a leading role back here.

Form & Verdict
3yo who has run some good races since moving into handicaps, not beaten far at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) and Chepstow (1m4f, good to firm) on her last two starts when losing places close home; this drop back in trip is worth a go and she's one to consider.

Opened account with clearcut success at Lingfield (1m2f) in December and has remained in good form since; may not have had enough use made of her when dropped back to 8.6f here a fortnight ago but still ran well; also suited by 1m4f; leading contender.

Only 1-16 but she's a versatile and consistent filly who is effective at 1m-1m4f; drops back in trip, having taken a good hold the last twice; possibilities with Harry Vigors taking off a useful 7lb.
