He had been consistent, rather than progressive, prior to a flop at Doncaster 17 days ago; this is uncompetitive but the drop back in distance isn't sure to be in his favour.

Struggled at huge odds in his qualifying runs but was 9-4 favourite on nursery debut at Brighton (7f, good to firm; cheekpieces added) last month and he didn't get much luck before finishing a close fourth of six; that was promising and he's a big player back up in trip.

Successful handicap debut at Brighton (6f, good) in August; that wasn't competitive but she ran well on her final 2yo starts there and 1m stretched her at Bath on comeback; shouldn't rule out back at 6f.

Started off in nurseries with two very respectable sprint runs on good ground but didn't fire at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and it's hard to tell how well she'll cope with this very different test.

Only fifth of six on last week's nursery debut at Chepstow (5f, good) but never really had a clear shot at the leaders and, after keeping on well, was beaten under 2l; another sound effort when third of six here (6f) yesterday; will enter calculations if she contests this race.
