A string of good runs here before collecting by 3l at Wolverhampton (7f) in a race that panned out to perfection; this might not and he's 7lb higher, which reduces his appeal.

A string of good runs at Brighton before collecting by 3l over C&D in a race that panned out to perfection; bled from the nose when disappointing at Brighton last time but he's 7lb higher than for his penultimate run and could have competition for the lead back on AW.

In the veteran stage now but the old man's been giving younger legs plenty of trouble this year, dead-heating at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February and placed on another five occasions; still in good heart judged on latest second at Bath (1m, firm) and this dual C&D winner can go well again.

Now 8lb higher than when successful over C&D (good to soft) in October; not at his best at Newbury (1m, good) last time, but his previous narrow defeat on his Windsor reappearance (1m2f, good to firm) suggested this sort of mark was within reach; shortlisted.

Triple turf winner on a good mark and rediscovered some form when third on the AW last week (7f); the return of cheekpieces helped then and he should have a part to play.

Lost second to Headshot in closing stages of 1m2f classified race won by Celebrating Ethel here (good) last month but that was still a good effort and today's shorter trip probably suits him better; now only 1lb higher than when dead-heating over C&D in May and might be boosted by refitted cheekpieces.
