Had hinted at better prior to his easy win at Bath in June (5f, good); improved again when second of 11, beaten a short head, at Ayr two weeks ago (front pair pulled clear); another 4lb rise demands more of him but he's not fully exposed and this should be run to suit.

Not the easiest to predict but heavy ground might have been to blame for a poor effort last time and he'd previously performed well from the front when second to Opal Storm over C&D; well drawn near the rail for a similar run; has to be considered.

Ran away with a C&D handicap on soft ground last spring and also ran a fine race when second in the 3yo Dash at Epsom last June (good to firm); thrown in on that form and she's shown enough this year to think a fire still burns; one to take seriously dropping into her first 0-70.

Started off the year in top form and although his recent efforts aren't quite so good, he's slipped quickly back down the weights and there have been mitigating circumstances; his fourth in the Gosforth Park Cup over C&D in June came from a poor draw and he's now 6lb lower in a considerably weaker race; interesting.
