1-1 over C&D; two good efforts since returning from latest seven-month absence but ran moderately when twelfth of 14 at York last time; 11l margin of defeat does him some disservice though (squeezed out then eased) and this drop in grade can help him bounce back; easiest task on turf for years; interesting.

Had some long spells on the sidelines since his solid 2022 campaign; two solid efforts since returning from latest seven-month absence; has run well over C&D and should give it a good go from the front.

Form & Verdict
Recent form includes a turf success but he's only 1-19 in this sphere and still has a much better strike-rate on AW; below par at Brighton last time.

Prolific AW winner; off the mark on turf with a last-gasp success at Goodwood (5f, good) last month; would have finished hot on the heels of Moulin Booj at Windsor last time but for meeting late interference; in the mix again.

Multiple AW winner; quirky sort who often starts slowly but he finally got off the mark (in a change of headgear) on turf in 5f Goodwood handicap last month; up 3lb but he can make his presence felt again.

Scored here in (good to soft) in her final 3yo run and she started this campaign with another brave win over C&D (firm) last month; that took her Bath record to 2-2 and she's remains feasibly treated off only 2lb higher; key player.

Below par at Sandown this month but a return to his May form, namely an AW success flanked by second-place finishes on turf, would put him in the picture.

Back in good form off his reduced mark, winning easily at Southwell (5f) before nearly defying a penalty at Chepstow (good to firm; effective on softer); 3lb higher for this but well drawn and must have a shout for all that he's back up in grade; Seamus Cronin aboard for last three races.

Has dropped a fair way down the weights over the last year or so, but looked back in prime form when scooting clear to win readily by 4l at Southwell (5f, AW) last week; also suited by good to firm turf and is 4lb ahead of the handicapper under his 5lb penalty.

Couldn't make the most of Lingfield's golden highway when weakening over 7f on his stable debut (50-1) a fortnight ago; drop back to 6f probably in his favour but others hold more pressing claims.
