Form & Verdict
Sole win in 24 starts came in a 0-55 handicap over C&D (good) in May last year; beaten just under 2l into fourth of nine behind Washington Heir here (5f, good) three weeks ago, but may be better over this trip these days; a player despite his wide draw.

Close fourth of 16 last time at Brighton (6f), the scene for all three career wins; has run well here as well and should be on the scene once more despite a fairly tough mark.

C&D wins in two of his last three starts, the latest his stable debut 16 days ago when he wore a tongue-tie for the first time; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run.

A maiden after 28 starts, with tendencies to start slowly and race too freely, but has made the frame on his last five appearances, including two seconds in this grade at Brighton (6f, good to firm) this summer; fine over 7f and a likely contender once again; has tried various headgear combinations this year; goes in just the refitted cheekpieces today.

26-race maiden but did remarkably well to snatch second behind Big Time Rascal over C&D (good to firm) last Tuesday, when breaking awkwardly and pulling hard; clearly not the most straightforward and another change of headgear is tried but should go close if he gets the breaks.
