Made it four wins from his last eight starts when scoring at Ripon recently (5f, soft; versatile ground-wise); there's still mileage in his mark on his old form and this thriving 6yo could play another leading role.

T: Paul Midgley

6yo who has won three times this season, including over C&D in June and at Hamilton last month; remains well handicapped on his old form but he didn't shine at Thirsk last time and it would be a worry if the forecast rain arrives (all turf wins have been on good/good to firm).

Form & Verdict
She's been running well in the main this season and has finished second at Ayr (5f, good/good to firm) on her two starts this month; she's won over C&D and there's every chance that she'll be bang there.

Holding her form well after yet another placed effort over 6f here last week and she'll be fine returned to 7f, over which she finished ahead of three in here when runner-up at York in August; another competitive run looks on the cards.

Runner-up six times in a row this summer (5f-7f, good to firm-good to soft), including in big fields, and ran respectably when sixth of 15 at York (7f, good to soft) last time; could be thereabouts.

Form & Verdict
Returned to form when making all in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) in a selling handicap over C&D (good to firm) last month; lost a shoe when down the field at Ayr (5f, good to firm) on Monday but this is a hotter race than the one he won here two starts ago and others are more compelling.

Gained the second of his two C&D wins in June when wearing cheekpieces for the first time (good); well beaten last two starts, but blinkers didn't work on first occasion and he didn't stay 6f at Catterick on Monday; could bounce back.

All his wins have come over 5f, the latest at Hamilton in June (good to firm; cheekpieces first time); mixed bag since and although returning to Class 6 company will help, he may prove vulnerable to stronger stayers.

Back to his best this year, winning three times from the front, latterly from the same stall over C&D in July; did it easily that day but finds himself 9lb higher as a result, which will test him back from a couple of months off.
