Form & Verdict
Six-time winner, with five on turf and one on AW; held in fifth of seven at Hamilton last time but he ran well in a Class 4 at York in July and that was after a comfortable success at Carlisle (6f); has claims if he can recapture that form and he's versatile ground-wise.

Eight-time winner with six on turf and two on Tapeta; his last success was at Ripon (6f, good) three weeks ago and he ran respectably back at 5f at Pontefract last time; remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher than for that recent win and he's in the mix back up in trip.

Hold-up performer who scored off 3lb lower at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) in July but he's not matched that since and was beaten 11l at Southwell last time; has something to prove and he needs to turn things around back up in trip.
