J: Jack Mitchell

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Only made his debut in August and has finished in the frame in both starts on turf (1m2f, good); narrowly landed a four-runner Wolverhampton maiden (9.5f, Tapeta) in between (runner-up has won since); still open to improvement on handicap debut, but stamina may be an issue on this stiff track.

No more than workmanlike in justifying short odds at Wolverhampton two weeks ago (9.4f) and the runner-up is now an 80-rated ten-race maiden; the potential is there to raise his game but likely that he'll need to.

J: Jack Callan

T: Clive Cox

11-race maiden for whom the drop back to 7f isn't an obvious positive; however, he could he sharper in the first-time visor and he was denied a clear run when fourth of 15 at Newbury (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago, when no match for three improving, fellow 3yos; could be a contender.

0-10 albeit in the frame on ten occasions, as when beaten a head into second of four in a Wolverhampton maiden (9.5f, AW) a fortnight ago; this looks a competitive race in which to attempt to break his duck, though.

Improved her RPR with each of her three starts, most recently finishing third of nine on her reappearance at Nottingham in July (8.3f, good to soft); bred to appreciate this extra distance and she shouldn't be too far away now switched to Tapeta.

Well-bred filly who has record of 3233 in novice/maiden events at up 9.4f this season; the latest third was in a four-runner race but she's been quietly progressive and this step up to 1m4f looks a good move on pedigree; needs a close look with cheekpieces added on handicap debut.

Beaten at odds-on on his Chelmsford debut in April (7f), after which he underwent wind surgery; fared better when third at Yarmouth three weeks ago (1m, good to firm) but he'll need to progress again for the longer trip if he is to win this.
