Third in two novices (1m2f, good to soft) for Brian Meehan as a 2yo, but has shown nothing in four starts over hurdles for this yard; return to the Flat may help, but risky all the same.
Won four times over hurdles between July and September last year, but lost his way in that sphere and showed nothing in two starts on the Flat (11.4f, 1m6f) last month; look elsewhere.
Third of seven in Listed event at Hamilton (1m3f, good; 150-1) a year ago, but turned over at 1-5 there the following month and has beaten just two rivals in three starts in warm handicaps since; this is easier, but still too many doubts for comfort.
Has shown promise in both starts over this trip, finishing fourth of eight on his Chepstow debut (good to firm) in May and third of six at Sandown (good) last month; that's among the best form on offer in this contest; major chance.
Sent off 11-1 when a well-held sixth of seven on last month's Lingfield debut (11.6f, good); has a taking pedigree and likely to do better in due course, but he will need plenty of improvement on that initial effort.
Has finished third in both starts, firstly at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) last month and at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) six days ago; shapes as though this longer trip may suit even if he isn't bred for it; shortlisted.
Made a promising start when third of six behind two susbsequent winners on her Redcar debut (1m2f, good to firm) in May, but took a step backwards when only fourth of five at Thirsk (1m4f, good) three weeks ago; still a player if bouncing back to her debut form.
