Three wins and two seconds to his name from ten runs over C&D but he's struggled this year; absent for ten weeks since hanging right on the home turn over C&D and others make more obvious appeal.
Big prices and well beaten in three runs over 1m2f to date; possible she'll improve for the new trip but she'll have to off this opening mark; jockey rode his first Flat winner early in the month (had two over hurdles as well); market useful.
Dam was a miler and he's not bred for this sort of trip; performed below market expectations all four runs since handicapping and, while his trainer-jockey combination will draw some in, stamina is an obvious concern.
Long time since he won on the Flat and he had lost his way when last seen; the change of yard will need to spark a revival and there's nothing to suggest he's best caught fresh.
Hit with a sharp rise in the weights after running away with a 0-55 here last backend and has struggled since, including in one go over this far; has moved yards yet again (new trainer also runs Shopaholic) which needs to have helped.
Dual 1m4f winner here in April, latterly off a 2lb lower mark; back in form without the usual cheekpieces (on again tonight) on turf last time and won't mind being back on Tapeta; goes on the shortlist.
His two turf wins last summer came off higher marks, including in an amateurs' handicap; moderate form this year and the blinkers, worn once before when pulled up over fences, are given another try.
Strong in the market on her first run in almost a year when third at Yarmouth a fortnight ago; comfortably held that day in a race than didn't pan out her way and she is entitled to improve, but has stamina to prove.
Infrequent winner who's been this far only once, when not seeing it out; pulled hard for his new yard when third at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) last month, then clipped heels and unseated early 11 days later; needs to settle better.
