J: Rossa Ryan

T: Alan King

Won handicap/seasonal debut at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in April but odds-on flop over 11.6f at Haydock next time; settling him was again an issue back over 1m2f in a steadily run race at Nottingham (good) one month ago but he came from the back in six-runner race to win by a neck; up 5lb but the third scored next time and this 3yo leaves the firm impression that there is better still to come from him.

J: Tom Marquand

T: Alan King

Showed improved form when winning at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm; runner-up has won twice since) in April but he didn't settle at Haydock (1m4f, good) 25 days ago; this drop back in trip could suit and he's open to further progress.

T: Alan King

Gelded and upped in distance, showed much improved form to win 12-runner race at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) on reappearance, pulling well clear with a rival who has since gone one better; should be at least as effective over this longer distance; still unexposed and has solid credentials.

Not exactly solid on autumn novice form (7f/1m) but brings sources of possible improvement, namely a gelding operation, switch to handicap level and new trip; not ruled out.

Well-beaten sixth in two novice races at Nottingham last month (8.3f, good to soft and heavy); should do better at some point but probably when handicapping.
