Ready winner on debut at Ayr last August (7f) and bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts to be runner-up in first handicap this June (8.3f, Hamilton); second crack at 1m2f when beaten 6l into third at the scene of her win latest; that trip may want revisiting at some stage but she makes some appeal over 1m here.

Low-mileage filly who kept on for clear second behind unexposed rival on last month's handicap debut at Hamilton (8.3f, good); moves back up in trip and competes off same mark here; commands respect.

Didn't go on last season and was gelded; only beat one home on his C&D comeback three weeks ago but shaped well for a long way and is entitled to have come on for that; worth a second look down 2lb.

J: Oisin Orr

T: Richard & Peter Fahey

Promising debut at Chester last July (7f, good; form worked out); no progress in two 7f runs at Newcastle afterwards but he has been gelded prior to his handicap/seasonal debut and stepping up to 1m should suit; one to be interested in.

Form & Verdict
Best form was on the AW in March (first two runs after being gelded) when winning at Chelmsford and finishing third in a Kempton handicap (both at 1m); has been disappointing back on turf including with cheekpieces and blinkers; no headgear here; plenty to prove.

Suited by AW and looks attractively handicapped, having gained his March win off 2lb higher, but appears more exposed than most of today's rivals; overall record is 1-10.

Made a successful seasonal/handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in March, but his form has rather regressed since; 2lb lower than for the win, but others still preferred.

0-9 and had been regressive this year, but last month's fourth of nine at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) was a step back in the right direction; ran well on soft ground last September and he's not ruled out.
