Overcame some trouble in running when winning a 7f handicap at Newcastle last week; not well in under a 5lb penalty but Toby Moore takes off 7lb and she was rated much higher in the spring; contender.

Form dipped at Kempton last time but he had been running well beforehand on both turf and Polytrack; Rossa Ryan booked and he's likely to bounce back quickly.

J: Rossa Ryan

Form & Verdict
Just 1lb higher than for his Newbury win in June (7f, good to form) and he ran well when a close third at Wolverhampton 23 days ago (8.6f; short head behind a subsequent winner); the cheekpieces are absent today but he has run well without them in the past; considered.
