Form & Verdict
Promise amidst inexperience on his first two starts and he still didn't look the finished article when leading on the line at Ripon four weeks ago on his first attempt at a mile; the runner-up has boosted that form since and he's a leading contender now handicapping.

J: Callum Rodriguez

Progressive once upped to 1m as 2yo, winning twice (good to firm/soft) before his Listed fourth in France (soft); may have needed last month's comeback run in the race won by Laureate Crown at Sandown (1m, good to firm; 14-1 from 20-1) but he's not obviously well treated.

J: Hector Crouch

T: Michael Bell

Won Ripon novice (1m, good to firm) last August on third start then followed up in four-runner nursery over this C&D (soft); creditable Listed fourth in France (1m, soft) in September but returns to a handicap off a mark 13lb higher than for his course win; further improvement needed.

Form & Verdict
No improvement for the switch to nurseries on her last two starts but she has run creditably on each occasion; needs to find more now upped to 1m for the first time (bred to stay).

Looked a little flattered when sneaking up the near-side rail to score at Lingfield (good to firm) in May but she more than matched that with very creditable fifth of six in Epsom Listed event (again 7f, good to soft) next time; never threatened in similar event at Carlisle a fortnight ago, however, which tempers confidence on this return to handicaps.

J: P J McDonald

She's had plenty of racing but has shown improvement on her last two runs, easily winning Class 4 handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) before fifth of sixth to Ellusive Butterfly (who is now penalised) in Epsom Listed race (7f, good to soft), beaten about 4l; on the up and has each-way claims.

Form & Verdict
Sprung a 16-1 surprise on his nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); two lesser efforts have followed but he faced a stiff task back at 6f at York's Ebor meeting three weeks ago; some encouragement for 1m on dam's side of pedigree but he's by a sprinter and it remains to be seen if he'll see it out, especially were the ground to deteriorate markedly.

A 16-1 winner on nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); back to form upped to 1m on last two starts, with an excellent second at Ripon (1m, good; probably acts on soft) on latest; by a sprinter out of 1m6f winner; others perhaps are a little less exposed.

Form & Verdict
Confirmed the promise of his Leicester debut in June when winning a Kempton novice three weeks later (both 7f); second to a promising sort at Ffos Las three weeks ago (7.4f, good); should stay this trip but slower than good would be an unknown and his opening mark isn't an obvious gift.

Ended last season with a win here (7f, good) and started this one with creditable fourth of ten at Newbury; however, he faded right out of it at Newmarket (1m) next time and ended up nearly 10l behind Devil's Peak at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm) on latest start, which make him hard to fancy.
