Not seen to best effect in four starts for this stable but he's done enough to think he retains a portion of his Irish ability; full revival may come at a lower level than this.

9st 11lb |
In a first-time hood (retained) he kept on for a 5l fourth at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) last month, having been detached at halfway; ran well on yielding to soft ground when trained in Ireland; worth another crack at 7f and he's not ruled out. |

Not matched his Irish best in two runs for current stable (5f/6f) but there's still time; today's slower conditions should suit and the addition of a hood another potential plus point; considered. |

Won twice on turf for his new yard this summer and only 1lb higher than for the second of them; needs to step up on a modest C&D effort two weeks ago if he's to win in this higher grade.

9st 1lb |
Has a patchy profile but he's won twice on turf this year and was a close second off this mark at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) last Wednesday; looks interesting on this drop back in grade and he's due to be 2lb higher in future. |

Made a good start for his new yard, winning at Yarmouth in August (5f, good) and placed in Racing League handicaps on Tapeta on his next two outings; his form has dipped the last twice though and others look more persuasive.

Made a successful stable debut at Yarmouth (5f, good) in August and ran well on Tapeta the next twice, but took a step backwards back at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last time; return to this trip should suit, but is still 6lb higher than for his win so more will be needed. |

BHA-rated 95 on the back of an easy 6f win at Ripon last September but it has been tough going since then, including in three runs for current stable; Andrew Mullen back on board today but there are risks involved; betting should be instructive if a revival is expected.

11st 2lb |
He was recording his second C&D success when getting up late in September off a 3lb lower mark; still looked in top form when fourth at Wolverhampton 17 days ago, totally fluffing the start and poorly positioned but keeping on well in the straight (recorded the fastest sectional for each of the last four furlongs); capable amateur booked and he's one to be interested in. |

Three 6f wins on Tapeta for this yard, coming from off the pace to score at Newcastle last month; wide draw and 3lb rise to contend with this time but this should be run to suit. |

Well handicapped on this season's best and although she looks to have gone off the boil, there have been mitigating circumstances for several of the defeats; stuck out wide from the worst draw at Wolverhampton two weeks ago and travelled well enough to think she was still in form; stiff 6f suits her well and she could bounce back.

Only 1lb higher than for her Carlisle win in August (6f, good to firm); she has had some excuses since but it was more than just the 7f trip which beat her at Musselburgh 17 days ago; stall 12 tempers enthusiasm. |
