J: Conor Whiteley

T: Hugo Palmer

He recorded two soft-ground wins (1m1f/1m2f) in June and wasn't discredited over further on AW in two subsequent starts; stiff 1m2f might be his gig and any rain would be a bonus; interesting.

Showed promise on good to firm on reappearance, before last month's soft-ground wins at Lingfield (1m1f) and Ayr (1m2f); he had no answers, however, when fifth of 14 to Roc De Fer at Southwell (1m3f, AW) four days ago.

Winner over 1m at Bath on soft last autumn and returned to the same venue to double his tally on reappearance (good to firm); a wide trip provides a possible excuse for a lesser effort at Windsor since (Fans Favourite ahead of him).

Mostly consistent 3yo who doubled his tally when winning at Nottingham (1m1f, good to firm) last month before another good run under a penalty at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm), finishing a 1l second; off the same mark today and has to be considered.

J: Gina Mangan

T: D Donovan

Won at Nottingham (8.3f, good) in May before respectable third of seven at Lingfield (1m1f, soft); hampered at the start when she flopped here (1m, good to firm) a fortnight and she's much better than that, but she needs to bounce back with a career best if she's to come out on top.

Form & Verdict
Third around 1m at Nottingham (good) and Yarmouth (good to firm) switched to handicaps this spring; below the level of those efforts on soft ground last year but it was his debut; has a useful pedigree and too soon to suggest he's reached his limit.

Form & Verdict
Stepped up on reappearance when third of ten over 1m at Windsor (good to firm) a fortnight ago, although he faded inside the final furlong and this sometimes keen goer wouldn't be sure to benefit from this slightly longer distance.

Sometimes races a bit too freely but ran well before fading into fourth over C&D (good) in June and returns here after keeping on well for second in tactical race at Ffos Las (1m, good) ten days ago; still on a workable mark; might be the answer.

Tough to argue his opening mark is generous on bare form but he's more than hinted at ability and appeals as a potential improver back from a 100-day break.

Best of his five efforts when fourth of 11 in 1m Southwell maiden (AW) in January with a first-time hood, which has been kept since; upped in trip again today but the heavy defeats in his two handicaps (last of three in latest) means that caution is advised.
