Led close home over 1m4f here (good to firm) last month and was close third over that trip here (soft) last week; today's drop back to 1m2f might not be ideal but Sean D Bowen claims a useful 3lb; high on the list.

Seems versatile ground-wise; justified favouritism over C&D last month, taking Brighton record to 131 (all last three runs); solid. |

Back in better form since returned to turf, finishing second at Epsom (good) then going one better over C&D (good to firm) for a first win; still comparatively unexposed in this sphere and may have more to offer; respected up 3lb. |

Came good with two course wins this summer (C&D handicap/1m classified) but has finished last of six here (1m2f/7f) on his last two appearances; reunited with Hollie Doyle (aboard for both wins) today and might bounce back but his tendency to race too freely remains a worry.

The form of his two wins here (1m2f/1m) this summer has substance; raced freely and folded over 1m2f last time when bidding for Brighton hat-trick, suggesting he'll benefit from this drop back in trip; remains of interest at this level. |

Ended nine-race campaign in Jersey with wide-margin win over 1m2f nine days ago; it's hard to gauge what that form is worth but she's very well handicapped on some of last year's mainland form; interesting.
