Form & Verdict

Made it two wins from 13 starts for David O'Meara when landing a claimer at Catterick 17 days ago, after which he was sold for £15,000; he's on a competitive mark now back in a handicap and could have a part to play.

Form & Verdict

Good second in first-time cheekpieces at Chepstow last month and he was hampered on the final bend when a close sixth of 12 at Lingfield (AW) last Saturday; in the mix if he's suited by the first-time blinkers.

Form & Verdict

Showed promise on his first three starts (including on good to soft) and he was a respectable fourth of eight on his handicap debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in May, where he was at a disadvantage in being held up off a steady pace; gelded since and he could have more to offer.

Made it two wins for the year when scoring over C&D (good to soft) in May and, after two lesser efforts, he returned to form with a good second at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last time; a player if again on a going day.

Form & Verdict

5yo who made it 0-11 when fifth of seven at Chepstow in June and his best form has come on AW; however, he may have needed that latest run after an 82-day break and he's on a competitive mark on his best AW efforts; showed promise on turf last summer and he's not ruled out.

Down the field on Polytrack the last twice and there's a question mark regarding his current form, but he's 0-9 on AW as opposed to 3-14 on turf and is 3lb lower than when a good third at Chepstow in June on his last grass turf; could bounce back with a big run.
