Form & Verdict

Fared better than the finishing position suggests (led for a long way) on turf at Goodwood latest, although is yet to prove himself as fully efficient on this surface (0-3); sits 5lb lower than when beaten by a short head at Chelmsford (1m, Class 5; 16-1) in March; stamina is a worry at 1m2f.

Form & Verdict

Stayed on stoutly when winning at Nottingham (1m2f, Class 6 apprentice handicap) three weeks ago, and has been found another suitable opportunity in pursuit of a third career win; useful claimer Benoit De La Sayette booked to effectively negate the subsequent weights rise.

Form & Verdict

Brighton regular with both wins coming at this track; hit a brief flat spot before recovering to power clear in a four-runner affair here (1m2f, Class 6; 6-5 favourite) in May; beaten by a tardy start more so than the 3lb weights rise at Bath (fifth) subsequently; dangerous to dismiss.
