W: 9st 9lb

3 yo Colt

OR: 75

Form & Verdict
Keen-going front-runner who turned in arguably a career-best effort when a clear second at Windsor seven weeks ago (upped 2lb); having Taryn Langley (first ride for the yard) take off 5lb will help his chances of getting home over this stiffer 5f.

Made light of a five-month absence when making all in 5f handicap at Bath 35 days ago, holding on by a nose from The Thames Boatman; not taken lightly despite a 3lb rise.

Has done his winning off marks in the 60s; mixed record (some good results, some not so good) off marks in the 70s and he lacks recent match practice; not the percentage call.

Steady progression all summer, including in victory here (firm); has been running over 6f but should be fine with the shorter trip and another bold showing is expected.

J: William Carson

T: Tony Carroll

Made giant strides for Tony Carroll last season, winning four times (three of them at Bath); confirmed her affinity for Bath, as well as the fact that she had done well over the winter, when short-headed in a Bath Listed race on Easter Sunday (5f, good); 15lb well in on this return to handicap company; obvious chance.

J: William Carson

T: Tony Carroll

Didn't progress for Gay Kelleway last year but her form has taken off for Tony Carroll this year, winning for the fourth time when comfortably on top at Bath four weeks ago (5.7f, heavy); 5lb rise/new surface to contend with but given this year's progress she can't be ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Clicked this summer, despite having had plenty of racing already, and had something in hand when completing the hat-trick last month; a 9lb rise looks plenty, though, and will test him tonight.

Won three last year, including at Ayr (5f, good to soft; 13-8 favourite) in July; yet to threaten this year, restless in the stalls at Musselburgh (5f) in April; easing mark - sub 70 for first time in a while - helpful, but tough to recommend at present.

Longstanding maiden who's been turned over at 4-1 or shorter six times already this year; consistent enough and it will drop right eventually but others are more convincing.

All three wins have been on AW but she's been knocking on door here (5f, firm/good) in last two starts; nudged up 2lb but she's been as good as ever in her last two runs and should be in the thick of things again.

J: Millie Wonnacott

She has made steady progress throughout her career, winning three times on AW, and she was unlucky not to register a first turf success when a close third over C&D last week; saw no daylight at a crucial stage on that occasion and the form has already been franked; good chance.
