Form & Verdict
3-36 and has suffered heavy defeats on turf in two his last three starts, but he went down by just a head at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) in between; perhaps not the most reliable, but would be a player on that form.

Won twice in Britain for current yard since winning twice in France; however, beaten 21l at Leicester (1m2f, good) last month following five-month layoff and lacks the scope of his rivals.

Won a 1m3f Class 5 handicap at Southwell in October and slightly better form when collared late over 1m2f at Lingfield in January; broke out of stalls and withdrawn at Kempton 11 days later (10-1 at the time); now returns to turf after a break but he's a dual winner in this sphere and is versatile ground-wise; possibilities.

Form & Verdict
Out of the frame in both starts on the AW (7f/1m) this time last year, but has improved since with three wins over 11.4f/1m4f on turf between May and August; latest Windsor effort (11.4f, good) was not among his best, but still a player in this field.

Won three times on turf for Richard Hannon last year; runner-up three times this year for current yard but is proving to be inconsistent; runs without tongue-tie worn on last two starts; rated 5lb lower on AW but best chance of success would appear to be on turf.

Three turf wins for Richard Hannon last summer and latest was off 1lb higher at Ripon (1m4f, good to firm); mixed results for new yard since March but she's had some close calls and was a creditable second at Doncaster (1m2f; tongue-tie added) last week; on same mark here and has leading claims if she can back that up

Habitual slow starter who is 1-20 and usually seen over shorter, though he ran with credit when fourth of eight over C&D in March; makes his stable debut after seven months off but can go well fresh; market useful.

Ordinary form in Britain, just sole 1m AW win to his name; seasonal/stable debut fourth over 1m4f at the Curragh, in this grade, was very good (travelled well and stuck on well) and quite likely he 'bounced' eight days later at Carlisle; has tried different headgear and visor now goes; trainer seems adept at improving recruits.
