Disappointing favourite in Southwell novice (7f, AW) last month but short-headed in Newcastle maiden (7f, AW) previously; bred to be suited by this step up in trip and he's not ruled out on handicap debut.

Fair third of seven on his Hamilton debut (6f, good to firm) last May, but not seen again until beaten a short head on last month's Newcastle return (7f, Tapeta); that race was slowly run but the form still makes him a major player in this.

Huge prices for two soft-ground runs last summer for Danny Brooke, finishing well beaten; likely best watched for his new yard unless the market says otherwise.

Has made a positive start for his new yard, building on promising handicap debut third when winning over 7f at Doncaster (good to firm) 19 days ago; only 2lb higher but the subsequent exploits of horses from that race don't suggest it's particularly strong form.

Has made a positive start for his new yard, coming home strongly on his handicap debut when a close third of seven at Southwell (7f) last month; merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark.

J: Jack Garritty

T: Mark Walford

Tailed off on soft ground in two starts for Danny Brooke last summer; marked improvement on his stable/AW debut three weeks ago when fourth of nine in a 7f maiden at Newcastle but they went slowly to halfway and he was well positioned; opening mark looks tough but he is at least unexposed.
