Form & Verdict
Nicely bred and represents major connections but finished down the field in two turf events; returned from a short break and ran a bit better when fifth of 12 on AW debut at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last month in first-time blinkers (left off here); steps up in trip on handicap debut and needs to show more.

Unraced on firmer than good except when well beaten on debut; highly progressive in handicaps and won at Windsor (11.4f, good) and Chester (10.3f, good to soft; first two 5l clear) on last two outings; keeps on finding more, and it's rash to say he can't do it again, but 9lb rise demands it for sure.

Very much on the up since sent handicapping and he cosily bagged a second success at Windsor (11.5f) last month; up 4lb but that form is working out really well so this son of Dubawi is a big player.

Well-related gelding who has done well since switched to handicaps, winning on AW at Lingfield (1m2f) in January and going close at Goodwood (1m2f, good) 17 days ago; only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's an interesting contender at this new trip; cheekpieces worn last time are removed.

Had fair AW form in headgear for Charlie Johnston during the winter, winning over 1m2f and runner-up over 1m4f; better on third Irish start when fourth against older rivals at Fairyhouse (1m2f); starting to stay on from rear when carried wide on the home bend at Ballinrobe; stepping back up in trip might help and can lead.

AW winner for Charlie Johnston and generally reliable; signs that he is returning to form gradually; took fourth of 14 at Fairyhouse last time; not sure to reverse previous form with Connova.

0-4 but has made the frame on his last three starts, leading for most of the way when fourth on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in January; doesn't look thrown in but cheekpieces could eke out some improvement.

About 4l behind fifth-placed Brighton View when 9l sixth of nine at 20-1 on last month's debut over C&D (good to soft); a big step forward is needed today but pedigree provides hope he'll be capable of better.
