Form & Verdict
Looked likely to pick up a 1m2f handicap on the form of his first attempt in one, when runner-up at Doncaster in April, but that hasn't happened and he just plugged on at one pace when seventh of 11 at Newbury recently; down in grade but others higher up the list.

Impressive from the front over this trip at Kempton a month ago, before turned over at 4-9 under a penalty at the same course a week later (easy winner totally exposed); something to prove after that.

Progressive 3yo who made the breakthrough at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in July and he followed up with a dominant display here (1m4f) last week; looks well treated under a penalty for that 4l win and he's a strong contender in his hat-trick bid.

Eighth-time lucky at Newmarket last month, showing a good attitude to get back after being headed over 2f out; the manner of that win offers hope for going beyond 1m2f for the first time and a 4lb rise could easily be defied.

Form & Verdict
Showed just modest form as a juvenile and she was beaten a fair way out on comeback in her first handicap, on Wolverhampton AW in first-time cheekpieces; upped to 1m2f with plenty to find.

0-8 but was a close third here (9.4f) last month and didn't run badly when fifth over that trip a fortnight ago; has a fighting chance if suited by this step up to 1m4f.

Form & Verdict
Step forward when keeping on at one pace in first handicap, on Lingfield AW (1m) in January; off the track and gelded after but he came home with a wet sail when a close third of six at Salisbury (1m, good to firm) recently; looks well worth a go at 1m2f; respected.

Yet to get off the mark but he has made the frame in his last five starts and this easier grade should see him go close.

Six-race maiden; returned from break with two good efforts this summer, latterly when third of five at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) last month; should be fine over today's longer trip; likely contender.

Form & Verdict
Out of unraced half-sister to Group 1 winners at 1m2f in Hong Kong; made no impact in four 2yo starts at about 7f but he did show some promise behind highly talented rivals (the winner just lost out in a recent Group 1 in France) on his Beverley debut and sharp AW tests wouldn't have suited after; everything points to improvement for the new trip now handicapping.
