Form & Verdict
Second on turf last April (good) and June (good to firm) before a short-priced AW win at Newcastle in November, all over 1m; while not discredited in form terms on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW; 10-1) in December, he managed only seventh of 11 and showed that overall improvement is needed; lightly raced and 1m2f should be within reach.

Made all at Yarmouth (good to firm) on his April return and it was a fine effort when third at Newbury (also 1m2f, good) a fortnight later; couldn't maintain his lead in better events subsequently but this drop back in grade should see him last longer.

Made it 2-5 when making all in Yarmouth handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his reappearance in April; creditable third at Newbury the following month but he flopped when joint-favourite at Redcar last time; has bit to prove again after that and he could have competition for the lead back on AW.

J: Jason Hart

Dominated a small field at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) and definitely improved on that form when a battling third behind classy improvers from top yards at Newbury (good); an easy lead looks unlikely here but he's a 4yo on the upgrade.

Form & Verdict
0-15 but involved in some tight finishes at 1m and also over C&D recently on his second go at 1m2f (one place ahead of Beach Point); off the same mark, he should be seriously involved if the returning cheekpieces (worn on penultimate start last term, ran creditably) don't have a negative effect.

Record is only 1-19 but the success, at Nottingham, is among his recent form and puts him 1-1 under Oisin Murphy; ran creditably a few days later and remains a consistent sort; rested over five weeks since that last run; solid claims.

Placed three consecutive times before leading close home to open account at Nottingham (1m2f, good; front pair clear) on Wednesday, carries 5lb penalty here but should be fine on the forecast slower ground; ought to be right in the thick of things again.
