Decent 3yo who's enjoyed a revival round Chepstow of late, beating a subsequent winner off 7lb lower last month before following up a fortnight ago; every chance of completing the hat-trick.

Losing run up to 14, but now 22lb below his last winning mark and showed a bit more when fourth of nine at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) last time; that form is working out quite well and one to be interested in.

9st 11lb

J: Jack Callan

T: Mark Loughnane

His two wins (from 21 races) came in a row last year, latterly in this race; 1lb lower today and second at Chepstow on latest start was his best show this season, so he's one for the shortlist despite a wide draw.

Five-race maiden who has shown positive signs in her two handicap attempts, keeping-on third upped to 1m2f at Sandown (good to firm) latest; progress still looks possible; enters calculations.

Long in the tooth now and not firing on all cylinders this season but, from a reduced mark, ran well in defeat over C&D (good to firm) in June; had excuse (lame) when below form here last month; big player if all goes to plan this time.
