7f AW win on debut; runner-up in two of his four handicaps this year, including by a neck at Sandown on penultimate outing; all six races have been over 7f but he looks worth a go at 1m; player.

Won debut in September (7f, AW); good seasonal/handicap debut when second of nine over C&D (good to firm) but below-form favourite at Leicester (7f, good) three weeks later; big player judged on the C&D run. |

Landed the odds in a Ripon maiden (1m2f, good) in May on second start; well beaten in both since (1m4f/1m2f) and the latest was her handicap debut but there are signs that this shorter trip may help.

Wore cheekpieces on last four starts and did not need to improve to win a Beverley maiden (8.4f, good to firm) in June on his ninth race; ran respectably back in handicaps on his two starts since but needs better than that.

Did not need to improve to win Beverley maiden (8.4f, good to firm) in June, his ninth start, and was just a respectable fourth when back in a handicap at York (1m, good to soft) last month; getting back on a sound surface might aid his cause but he probably needs a career best. |

Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) and Doncaster (1m, good to firm) in June in her second and third handicaps; also seriously competitive in her two starts since, so should be in the shake-up if the new tongue-tie and cheekpieces don't have an adverse effect.

Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in June on second handicap start and followed up at Doncaster (1m, good to firm); another good run when close fourth at Beverley (8.4f, good) last time and that form has worked out nicely; trainer has won the last two runnings and she could be in the shake-up. |

Showed plenty in defeat for Ralph Beckett last year; sold for 120,000gns in October and tailed off on handicap/seasonal debut for new yard at Newmarket (1m, good) in May, which casts a heavy cloud; had gelding and wind operations later in May and also now wears a hood.

Progressive form in three starts for Ralph Beckett last year, finishing third of eight behind a triple subsequent winner at Haydock (1m, good) in his final outing; changed hands for 120,000gns in October and now makes his stable/handicap debut after eight months off; watch the market. |

Best form from six races in Ireland when second in a Killarney handicap (1m, soft) in May; tailed off on final start there and well below form on British debut, so others have more pressing claims.

Ex-Irish; below form on latest start, but some decent efforts before that including when second in a Killarney handicap in May (1m, soft); first run on fast ground; a possible on stable debut. |

Irish raider who has raised his game the last twice, going close at Killarney (1m, soft) and rallying for a close fifth off modest fractions at Ffos Las (good); if they go quicker this time he should be in the mix. |
12/1 |
