Placed in five of six starts since making a successful stable debut at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in January, including when beaten a head on return from 139 days off in a stronger C&D race (first-time cheekpieces) last month; only 1lb higher and solid claims if building on that.

Expensive to follow and has been off for almost five months since found to have an irregular heartbeat at Haydock; this mark is surely within range, though, returned to the trip over which his wins have come and switched to cheekpieces.

J: Ryan Moore

T: George Boughey

Impressed when landing a gamble at Lingfield (7f, AW) on his stable debut in January; expensive to follow since but he still has potential and last week's close third at Epsom (extended 1m; good to firm), when tried in this headgear for the first time, was a rock-solid effort; it didn't point to him necessarily wanting this drop to 6f but Ryan Moore is back on board and he can't be ignored.

Has three wins and a second to his name in eight runs over C&D, latterly when going in off a 7lb higher mark this time last year; is into the veteran stage and can pull hard/start slowly, so there are risks from stall 9, but the switch from turf should help.

Ten wins in all, including two last year over 7f; blew out at Royal Ascot but beaten in the region of 5l in his four other starts this year, all strong Class 2 handicaps; a tendency to start slowly (especially of late) isn't helping matters but not dismissed.
