J: Luke Morris

T: Richard Hughes

Made it 3-3 in turf handicaps when overcoming trouble to win a shade cosily at York in May and it was a good second of 17 in valuable event at Goodwood (also 7f, good) ten days later; still progressing and he holds leading claims again.

T: Richard Hughes

Overcame trouble to win a shade cosily under Saffie Osborne at York (7f, good) last week, taking his record in turf handicaps to 3-3 and record since upped to 7f to 2-2; may well show further progress and defy another rise in the weights; respected.

Got up in the final strides upped to 7f at the Newmarket Craven meeting (good) last time, taking record in turf handicaps to 2-2; could well improve further and he represents last year's winning yard; shortlisted.

J: Finley Marsh

T: Richard Hughes

Progressive gelding who has form figures of 34131 since switched to handicaps and that last win was a brave effort at Newmarket (7f, good) 18 days ago; 2lb higher on this step back up in grade but he's unexposed at this trip and is a big player again.

9st 5lb

J: William Buick

T: Richard Hughes

Has consistent form since being gelded and reappearance effort (6f, AW) suggests this new trip is worth exploring, in keeping with his pedigree; scored comfortably in sole attempt in a turf handicap; solid claims.
