Form & Verdict

Runner-up in three consecutive starts for Richard Hannon last summer and having been absent for 150 days and been gelded, was only beaten just over a length into fourth of 12 on stable debut at Kempton (6f, Polytrack) last month; takes on a couple of less exposed and progressive sorts here, though.

Has run well to finish a close second on four of his last six starts; could give another good account but he's won just one of his 20 starts and stall 11 is a probably hindrance in his bid to enhance that poor strike-rate.

Form & Verdict

Sixth of nine on his debut at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) in December, but improved when making all and just holding off a long-odds-on shot (unlucky next time) in a four-runner contest over C&D last month; could take some catching if similar tactics are employed.

J: Jack Mitchell

Big improvement when winning a Chelmsford novice (5f, AW) in January and he was a good second under penalty there the following month; opening mark is no gift but he's still unexposed and should have more to offer on this switch to handicapping; respected on return.

Form & Verdict

Twice runner-up on varying ground over 5f at Ripon last summer, but well held in two other starts including at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta); returns from six months off having been gelded in the meantime and the market may be revealing.

Best run on turf was when runner-up to a useful sort in a 5f maiden here in July (soft; third has won since); off the mark in a Kempton maiden in February, but well below his best on handicap debut at Southwell earlier this month (5f; cheekpieces); headgear retained; up to 6f for the first time.

Only had to match his 2yo best to win a 5f maiden at Kempton six weeks ago, leading close home; improvement will be required if he's to follow up on this handicap debut but cheekpieces may help and he's not ruled out.

Cost 105,000gns as a 2yo but she was only tenth of 12 at Jebel Ali (6f, dirt) on her debut in November; travelled well to a point in that race and now drops to 5f for Archie Watson but she still needs to leave her initial form a long way behind.

Well beaten in one start for Alan King at Kempton debut (6f, Polytrack; 17-2) last summer; makes his stable debut (same owners) after 226 days off having been gelded in the meantime, but Al Wosol looks the yard's main hope.

He hasn't landed a blow in two 5f events on Polytrack this year but stepping up to 6f will suit, as will this drop into Class 6 handicaps; blinkers given a go too and he's more interesting than many of these.

£45,000 yearling; half-sister to winners Engles Rock (7f/1m including AW; 83), Aspar (5f/6f; 83) and Golden Days (7f; 68); dam unplaced 6f-1m (40), half-sister to useful 5.7f-1m2f winner Rakaan out of 6f 2yo AW winner; stable has a fine record with newcomers, but the yard fields a stronger candidate in Al Wosol.
