Lightly raced 4yo who has won three times this year and went down by only a neck in the competitive International Handicap over 7f here (good to firm) a fortnight ago; has shaped as though this first crack at 1m could prompt further improvement and he's a leading contender under Hayley Turner.

Better than ever when completing a 7f hat-trick in June; shaped as if still in form when fourth of 11 at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago but that underlines he needs a bit more from his new mark; won over 1m earlier in his career.

Suited by good or softer ground; may have done a bit too much early when fourth of 13 behind two of these at Chester (7.6f, good) five weeks ago; will need to settle better than he sometimes does, but has the right man on board if reverting to hold-up tactics. |

Regular in warm handicaps like this and only just beaten at Doncaster (1m, good) on penultimate start; not disgraced in the Cambridgeshire (1m1f, soft) a week ago but has managed to win only two of his last 36 starts; others make more appeal. |

8yo who is 0-11 this year but he returned to form when going close off this mark at Doncaster (1m, good) a fortnight ago and he's 9lb lower than when a 1l third of 34 in this race last year (good to firm); versatile ground-wise and has a good record on the Newmarket courses; contender. |

Well handicapped on his best form for Charlie Johnston last season but he's finished in rear in three runs for his current yard, including a heavy defeat after a slow start at Ripon last time; handles most ground but he has other questions to answer and needs a major turnaround; hood reapplied. |

Held in both starts since returning for this yard last month and is 6lb higher than when winning easily over C&D (good to soft) for Charlie Johnston just over a year ago; ran well off higher marks than this in his next two outings, though, so he could figure if bouncing back. |
