Form & Verdict
Record of 1-10 and well held in last two runs (heavy/Tapeta) but he made all over C&D (good) in June and also had a near miss here the following month; looks well handicapped on that form and has claims if he can revive back at this track; visor is removed and cheekpieces return.

Runner-up three times this winter (including twice over C&D), but he was disappointing after another slow start at Chelmsford last month; needs to bounce back and he's now 0-13 since his sole win last June.

Form & Verdict
Won three 5f handicaps on turf in August including two over C&D (good to firm); three creditable efforts since her last success and she may have done too much too soon at Southwell last time; continues to edge back down the weights and she's in the mix back in this sphere.

Placed in her three qualifying runs in May/June and she did best of the runners who raced on the far side when fifth of 18 on handicap/turf debut at Ascot (5f, good to soft) last month; hasn't really progressed so far but that was a promising run last time and she still has untapped potential; interesting contender.
