C&D winner who was having his second start back from a second wind op when third of 12 in first-time blinkers here a week ago; will need to settle better than he did then, but a solid chance if doing so down slightly in grade.
In the frame in four of her last five starts, but is 0-7 and not really progressing; something to prove back from 131 days off; cheekpieces removed after one use.
Does possess ability as he again showed when a possibly unlucky second of 11 over C&D last month, but he is just 1-27 and ran poorly when last of 12 (behind three of these) back here a week ago; has burst blood vessels.
Five of his six wins have come over C&D, the latest early last month; only beaten a nose back here last time and high on the list despite another 2lb rise.
In fine form in recent weeks, finishing first past the post in three consecutive starts over 8.5f/9.5f at Wolverhampton (demoted on final occasion), before finishing second of 12 at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) 16 days ago; up another 4lb but hard to rule out.
Not for the first time he got going too late when eighth of 12 over C&D a week ago, finishing just over a length behind Bearwith; 0-14 in handicaps and others make greater appeal.
11-race maiden who has shown ability as when second of eight from 6lb higher at Ayr (1m2f, heavy) in October, but she hasn't built on it and only beat one home over C&D last time; look elsewhere.
Unplaced in four starts on turf, but having been gelded was sent off just 3-1 when sixth of ten on his return/handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) in October; off another 11 weeks since and cheekpieces are given a go, but there are plenty of AW winners in his family; interesting.
1-20, the win coming for Mark Hoad at Windsor (1m, good to firm; 40-1) in June; has regressed since then including on stable debut here (1m) 11 days ago; blinkers given a go, but he has plenty on from 4lb out of the weights.
Runner-up in a Dundalk maiden (1m, Polytrack) on his second start as a 2yo, but has regressed since (including in four starts for this yard) and is now 0-13; hard to fancy from 4lb out of the weights.
