His dam was a useful heavy-ground 6f 2yo winner but he was beaten a long way at 22-1 on last month's debut at Hamilton (6f, soft) and this Harry Angel gelding needs to leave that performance miles behind.

£45,000 breeze-up 2yo whose dam was a 7f Listed winner; backed into 9-4 from 20-1 on debut at Carlisle (6f, good) three weeks ago and recovered from slow start for close third; open to improvement; one to consider.

0-7 but he's yet to finish out of the frame; recorded his best effort for this yard when third in 5f Ffos Las maiden (good; first-time visor) one month ago; this return to 6f looks a positive move for his handicap debut.

Becoming exposed after six defeats and two of those were at odds-on, including the latest at Brighton; consistent though and won't be far away provided the new visor doesn't trip him up.

Two promising runs (6f, good and soft) for another yard as a 2yo; not at the same level in three runs for James Fanshawe and hopes appear to rest on the faster ground sparking something extra from him; cheekpieces tried last time swiftly dispensed with.

Runner-up at Pontefract (6f, good) in July on second start and again finished second over this C&D (good to soft) last month; can give another good account and a first win could be imminent.

12-race maiden who has had an underwhelming campaign in the main but he returned to form when runner-up at Thirsk (7f, good) a fortnight ago; has shown promise on soft ground; could be involved if producing another good run.

J: Tom Eaves

Maiden who's regressed in cheekpieces this season and is now given a go in blinkers, off the back of a poor first run back from wind surgery last time; too many defeats at short prices for comfort and needs a revival on his AW debut.

Dam French 1m1f AW winner and he's open to improvement, but he finished down the field at 11-1 on last month's debut at Ayr (6f, good) and needs a massive step forward this afternoon.

Didn't run as badly as his finishing position might suggest at Redcar last time and he has run plenty of good races in defeat this season; won just one of his 15 starts though and others appeal more for win purposes.

Didn't live up to market expectations on debut at Windsor (6f, good) in July, but much more like it when going close at Goodwood (6f, good) last month; leading claims if handling today's softer conditions.

Made a winning reappearance at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April off a 2lb lower mark than today's but she's struggled in three starts since, including when fifth of six at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) ten days ago; drops back in trip with blinkers added.

Reappeared with a win at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) in April but she struggled at Royal Ascot next time and it was the same story in a Class 4 at Musselburgh last month; has something to prove again and she needs to get back on track.
