Some turf promise in Ireland; has done better on AW for this yard, finishing a close second at Kempton on handicap debut, then dead-heating for a Chelmsford maiden (also 6f); never involved at Kempton in April but capable of better down in grade.
Useful debut run at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last May; turned over at a short price on only subsequent 2yo start but he made some late progress at Salisbury recently when returning from an absence; on a fair mark on handicap debut if debut effort is taken at face value; now tongue tied.
Best 2yo form in the fifth of five handicap starts, when a ready winner over 5f at Nottingham (soft) last October and emerged with credit from her return, coming clear with an improved rival at Haydock (6f, soft; first two well clear) recently; up 2lb but one to fear if conditions deteriorate.
All three runs on good ground; had four subsequent winners ahead of him when a front-running eighth of 25 at Newbury (1m) on reappearance but he didn't run to the same level back over 7f there next time and it's hard to know what to expect on the drop in trip on handicap debut.
Can lead; has form at both sprint trips but her win came in a 6f Chepstow maiden (good); had the widest draw to overcome when finishing last of nine on Lingfield AW in May and has more going for her in this lower grade back at 6f; first-time cheekpieces fitted.
Hardy customer who has already run 23 times and was gaining his sixth win when successful at Brighton (6f, good to firm; has won on soft) ten days ago; back up 5lb but not weighted out of it; hereabouts.
Two narrow 6f defeats on the AW either side of a winter break, the latest at Southwell against a subsequent winner, but she didn't do as well there next time and the return to turf didn't pay dividends at Catterick since; goes into handicap company with a bit to prove.
Well positioned when winning final two juvenile starts at 6f on Polytrack; entitled to need the run on his recent comeback at Haydock (6f, soft) and open to some improvement regardless of what the weather does.
Unable to sustain effort upped to 1m on Kempton AW in April and was always well adrift on final qualifying run there when back over 7f; unknown quantity over 6f with questions about how the ground wil be riding but, as a newcomer to handicaps for a leading yard, he has to be respected.
Won two 5f events (including on soft) from final three handicaps for Archie Watson; well held in two runs for new yard and may need more weight off his back; first 6f run since debut.
Some promise on 6f debut at Ascot (soft) and didn't need to come on a ton to win a 7f Chelmsford AW novice next time; has not looked ahead of his mark in two AW handicaps this year but perhaps he'll do better back at 6f on soft turf.
Best form on the second of four starts, when runner-up in a C&D novice last August; beaten a long way on her handicap debut at Haydock in October, when the 7f trip and/or the good to soft ground might have counted against her; off since and some guesswork needed.
