Won a weak maiden at Chepstow (7f, good) and then finished fourth of six in a seller at Salisbury (heavy); an unlikely winner no matter what effect the new blinkers have.

Definite progress from Doncaster debut fourth when off the mark at the second attempt at Chepstow (7f, good; 7-2); that form is not overly strong but he's value for a bit more than the winning margin; fully entitled to make his presence felt against this calibre of opposition; player.

Made a low-key start at Kempton (7f) last month but she left that form a long way behind when a strong-finishing second at Chepstow (7f, good) two weeks later; sets the standard on that form and she's open to more progress on this step up in trip; big player.

0-12 but she went close at Ripon (1m2f, soft) in August and ran to a similar level when fourth at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) last month; remains unexposed at middle distances and she should be in the mix again.

Classy pedigree, by Sottsass and dam out of a sister to Group 1 winners Minding (1,000 Guineas and Oaks), Tuesday (Oaks) and Empress Josephine (Irish 1,000 Guineas); a market move would be interesting.

Won over 1m4f at Leicester (good to firm) in July and 1m6f at Southwell (AW) in August; improved again when beaten a neck at Ffos Las (1m6f, soft) last month and perhaps he simply failed to stay when a remote fourth over 2m back at Southwell a fortnight ago; capable of bouncing back.

Previous best form came on his sole start here, when making all in August on his penultimate start; took it up another notch when beaten a neck at Ffos Las (also 1m6f, soft) 12 days ago; 2lb higher but this new trip promises to suit and he's a must for the shortlist.

Bids for hat-trick after making all in smallish fields at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) and Southwell (1m6f, AW) this summer; could plausibly still have more improvement to come but moves up from Class 6 today and is not sure to be ideally suited by the slower ground.
