Form & Verdict
He has done well since blinkers went on in April, winning four times; latest Southwell fifth (6f) shouldn't be used as evidence that the handicapper has caught up but he can miss the break and dropping back to a sharp 5f isn't sure to be beneficial.

Gained a belated first turf success (18th attempt) when getting up on the line at Musselburgh (5f, good) 15 days ago; his record doesn't make him an obvious one to follow up but he should remain competitive off 4lb higher.

3-12 on AW compared to 0-17 on turf but last week's second at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) suggests he can pick up a win on the grass off this sort of mark; has to enter calculations, although any easing of the ground possibly not ideal.

All three wins have been on the AW at Wolverhampton over 5f but he caught the eye finishing strongly for fourth at Thirsk (5f, good; Irish Dancer was second) nine days ago; possibly an unfortunate loser on that occasion having been hampered against the rail and and could make amends.

Not the force of old but that is reflected in his mark and he returned to form with a comfortable 6f win here last week; still on a good mark despite his 4lb rise and unlikely the drop back to 5f will be his undoing.

Capitalised on the drop into Class 6 company when winning over C&D last October; came up short in Class 5 company twice afterwards and although he should be well treated on historical evidence, he may prove up against it back from 11 weeks off.

Freegoing filly who gained her first success in a 6f handicap at Chelmsford in April; two runs for her new stable after a 100-day break have been encouraging but she's been slowly away on both occasions and can't really afford that luxury.

Ex-Jack Jones (bought for 3,600gns in April); all three wins have been on AW; fair run on stable debut when seventh over 6f at Thirsk (good); well drawn and could go well on a rare run at 5f (races mainly at 6f).

Closely matched with Irish Dancer and Street Life on C&D form from two weeks ago when she was short of room late on; all her wins have come at 6f but she's effective at 5f and she should be in the shake-up again.
