Won Newcastle novice (7f, AW) in March on third start and runner-up in handicaps on last two outings, beaten a neck at Newcastle (7f, AW) then keeping on well behind a progressive winner at Carlisle (6f, good to firm); the return to 7f may well be a positive and he's on the shortlist.

Unexposed 4yo with a progressive profile; beaten neck when odds-on at Newcastle (7f) last month; usually travels strongly and should be at least as effective back at 6f; still on a workable mark and high on the list.

Won his novice here by 5l and looked on a workable mark for his handicap debut at Wolverhampton but he never travelled after starting slowly; wouldn't judge him on that performance and could be given another chance.

Built on a promising start (here and Doncaster) when downing the odds-on favourite in style at Newcastle (7f, novice; 15-8) over a fortnight ago; switches to handicapping on this similar Tapeta surface from a workable opening mark of 83; a fascinating contender.

60,000gns yearling by Havana Grey; made a promising start when fourth at Wolverhampton last March and he built on that when runner-up at Doncaster (7f, good) later that month; been absent since then but he sets a good standard on his comeback and yard has been firing in winners recently.
