Form & Verdict
Eighth of 18 on Newbury debut in a race that could barely have worked out better; gelded afterwards and was noticeably strong in the market at Ascot (6f, good; 13-8) where he raced close to the pace before running on best; the runner-up was fourth in yesterday's Convivial at York and the third also ran well in defeat at Newbury last week; the one to beat.

Won 6f Group 2 as a 2yo (good to soft) and scored in this grade at Sandown (5f, good) in June, after a break; carries 3lb penalty in stronger race today but could still have untapped potential back over this longer trip; shortlisted.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Charlie Appleby

Very useful 6f gelding whose last two performances suggest he's perhaps ready for this drop to 5f; may yet tap back into the progress that culminated in Mill Reef success at Newbury (good to soft); leading player, even with 5lb penalty, on return from another layoff.

Hasn't progressed from a promising debut second at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in August on his two runs since (6f, good to firm/good) but there have been firm hints that this step up to 7f will help on nursery debut.

70,000gns yearling; both runs over 6f; made up a lot of late ground at Windsor and confirmed that promise when close up in a maiden here, again finishing well; gives the impression that 7f might be needed but has the form to be competitive.

Two of her three wins have been over this C&D, the most recent in a steadily run race 26 days ago, form that has since been franked by the second; now just 3lb higher and is considered, but stall 13 doesn't make things easy for this prominent-racer.

Value rose from 130,000euros as a foal to 550,000gns as a yearling; 100-30 at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) and appeared to have it in the bag until getting moved down by a fellow newcomer who has since come up short under a penalty (still showed improved form); clearly capable of winning a race of this nature.

Sole win from six starts came in a Southwell maiden (7f, AW) in December and he posted a solid effort there over 6f in first-time cheekpieces two weeks ago, bouncing back from some lesser efforts on turf; headgear is retained but he needs to build on that latest outing.

Forged clear in a Southwell maiden (7f, Tapeta) towards the end of last year but he was disappointing on handicap debut at Wetherby (7f, good to firm; 4-1) in April; has bit to prove again after that 8l defeat and his standout form was on his sole AW run.

Beaten 13l on debut but typically for one from this yard he was better second time at Sandown (5f, good) where he was under 4l away despite a troubled run; improvement looks on the cards, though might be one for handicaps.
