Off the mark in a C&D novice during May but he's had mixed results in handicaps since, including back here 17 days ago; has worn cheekpieces on last three starts but not today.

One win in 12 starts but that did come on his sole start here, when landing a 7f novice (good) on his seasonal/stable debut in April; not the most consistent in handicaps subsequently, but he ran better than his finishing position suggests at Redcar last time and maybe the return to this C&D will aid his cause.

Scored on his stable debut in 7f novice at Catterick in May; has failed to kick on sent handicapping, though better signs in first-time cheekpieces when fourth of seven at Carlisle (6f) 19 days ago; needs to back it up now in retained headgear.

Form & Verdict
0-5 and has had more chances than any of these but she's been steadily progressive and ran well when third in a maiden at Southwell (6f, AW) last month; good second over 7f on turf at York last July; leading form claims.

Solid efforts in defeat have followed her 7f win at Carlisle in June; stays 1m and ran well here (6f) on her only AW start; more appealing than many in here.

Off the mark at the ninth attempt when winning over C&D (good) in June and has run with credit in defeat on all three outings since; wouldn't want significant deterioration in the ground.

Thrice-raced colt who has been placed in both turf attempts, latest at Catterick (7f, good) on seasonal debut; leading contender in this field, assuming he takes well to first-time headgear.

Sent off 33-1 for last month's Leicester debut (7f, good to soft), but was only beaten 2l into third of ten having attempted to make all; a couple of winners have come out of that race and shortlisted if as effective on this different surface.

Form & Verdict
Beaten around 6l when fifth then fourth at Southwell (6f, AW) last autumn on her first two starts; improvement is necessary but she's from a family connections have done very well with, and her in-form southern trainer is 5-9 at Catterick; wears a first-time hood; interesting.

Maiden after eight starts but her better effort against Superstorm over C&D two starts ago promised more and the race didn't go her way on Lingfield AW (6f) next time; not ruled out.
