Form & Verdict
Struggled early on for this yard (at huge prices) but he was dropped into a Class 6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f) 12 days ago, backed into 11-8 favouritism and duly returned to form, finding only an in-form rival too good; 1lb rise not an issue given what he was capable of last year; key player.

Creditable third off 9lb higher over C&D on soft ground (acts on good to firm) last September in his only Epsom race; AW campaign in the winter for new yard did not go at all well until he perked up a bit in February on his last two outings; needs to build on that after his break but he's too well handicapped to be ignored.

Form & Verdict
0-11 but he went close on his stable debut at Haydock in September (11.5f, good; ridden by Fletcher Yarham) and races off the same mark here; had a wind operation following some heavy defeats (Flat and hurdles) and now fitted with cheekpieces; may have other pace influences to deal with but he returns to action with his yard in good form.

Form & Verdict
Ran out the convincing winner of a 1m2f handicap at Leicester in October (absent 385 days; for this rider); only midfield at Kempton ten days ago but it wasn't a bad run; this race has the potential to be well run and he could be arriving on the scene late.

Wildly inconsistent this year; better from the front in a small field last time and the return to a switchback track, back up in trip, looks in his favour (fair record on the AW here); whether he reproduces the effort is the question.

J: Olivia Tubb

T: Jonathan Portman

For one who has been a model of consistency for much of his career it is slightly disconcerting that he has been well below form in three of his last four starts; the lesser runs have been in Class 5 events and his standout recent effort came when faced with Class 6 opposition, missing out by just a head at Lingfield in February (1m2f, AW); has run well over C&D in the past and a revival could be forthcoming back down in grade.

Form & Verdict
Beaten 41 times in Ireland but he landed a gamble in a 1m2f classified event at Chelmsford on his stable debut on Sunday; no fluke about that success but this is a better race and he didn't convince with his stamina in one previous attempt at the trip.
