J: Tom Kiely-Marshall

T: Bryan Smart

Three front-running C&D wins between last May and January; below best on last two starts but he might just have needed the recent sharpener following a break and can't be passed over too lightly.

Prominent racer with three C&D wins on his record, including on his penultimate start in January; not so good behind Okami five days later; has tended to come on for the run after breaks in the past.

All five wins at 6f but she shaped quite nicely over 5f at Ayr last time; if she builds on that she'll be a leading contender here.

Both wins have been on AW and latest was 11 months ago; 0-15 on turf but he had a near-miss at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and has run respectably in two of his three subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck.

Chased home Canaria Queen in a Nottingham classified event 11 days ago and 1lb better off for a head defeat today; ran another good race at Newcastle on Saturday, never nearer than at the finish; new blinkers replace cheekpieces; has the ability to win a race of this nature but he's an habitual slow starter so will always need some luck in running.
