J: Zac Lloyd

T: George Boughey

Maiden after seven races, runner-up in all four since joining George Boughey; three of those were handicaps (8.6f/1m2f) so he should be far more exposed than most of today's rivals, but he has been improving (wore cheekpieces last time) and 1m4f now looks worth a go.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: George Boughey

Now 0-6 but he's posted progressive RPRs when runner-up on all three starts since joining George Boughey; the form of his latest 1m2f Newmarket second has been boosted by subsequent wins for the third and fourth (the winner also a creditable third in a Listed race); if he can pull out only a little more for the addition of cheekpieces he could take a bit of stopping.

J: Tom Marquand

T: George Boughey

Showed promise in three turf runs for Ralph Beckett last summer; turned over at 4-6 this year at Wolverhampton (AW) in a 7f maiden and 8.6f handicap, which were his best form and he's shaping as if worth a go at 1m2f but he needs to find extra.

T: George Boughey

Showed promise behind some useful rivals in three runs for Ralph Beckett last summer; returned after gelding operation with odds-on defeat here (7f maiden) last month but he pulled a long way clear of the third and that was behind a rival who followed up under a penalty; looks on a fair mark now switched to a handicap and he's an interesting contender at a new trip.

Took on useful prospects, showing promise, in three 2yo turf runs at about 7f for Ralph Beckett, including the Listed Chesham at Royal Ascot; gelded since last seen in August; type to do better as a 3yo and sights lowered on yard debut.
