Form & Verdict

Yet to add to his win in this race two years ago and is no longer the force of old but has made the frame in three consecutive 6f handicaps since cheekpieces were removed this summer and has each-way claims at least here, assuming the first-time eyeshield doesn't rock the boat.

Form & Verdict

Some smart form as 2yo but well down the field on all three appearances at 6f and 7f this year, most recently on handicap debut at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) last month; eased in grade again here and ought to be better suited by the faster ground but still has a lot to prove.

Bits of Group form as a 2yo; has struggled in good 6f races this term, both in May; subsequent gelding operation may have positive effect and this is a drop back in class but it's not clear whether he's trained on.

Dual 5f winner for new stable since the spring, and looked as good as ever when placed off mark 2lb higher than today's in valuable race over that trip at Glorious Goodwood in July; didn't fire last time but should be okay back over 6f and enters calculations.

Gelded and given a wind op prior to his handicap debut at Sandown three weeks ago, a race where he looked to have things sewn up before being picked off close home (7f, good); should have the pace to be as effective at 6f and he's open to further progress; strong claims.

Better on the AW but his lower turf mark reflects that; very well handicapped now but has not been firing on all cylinders this year and may be reliant upon others setting a very strong pace.

Close up in a Group 3 over 6f on this course last May but it's mostly been uphill for him at different levels since and a first venture over 7f, when third to Rhoscolyn at Epsom recently, shows that extra reserves will be needed for this race.

Won three in a row for Jane Chapple-Hyam towards end of last year (6f-1m) and reappeared with two good runs in AW Listed races in March (7f/1m); not seen since struggling in 1m German Group 2 in May, though, and it's hard to predict how he'll fare in this sprint handicap for new stable.
