0-8 on turf but he's unbeaten in four AW runs and has scored over 1m at Southwell (Tapeta) and Lingfield (Polytrack) last twice; up another 5lb but he beat a clear second last time and could continue on the upgrade; interesting contender.

Currently 0-8 on turf and 2-2 on the AW, including an easy C&D win last autumn off a 12lb lower mark; has it all to prove, off the back of two poor efforts last month (pulled hard each time), but the return to this track is a big plus. |

Came from the rear to win on his handicap/stable debut at Chester (7.5f, good) in June; had some traffic issues in next two starts but he didn't fire when favourite at Haydock last time; bit to prove again after that and he's untried on Polytrack.

Three runs for Charlie Appleby as a 2yo, runner-up twice; sold for 120,000gns this July and showed promise with his late headway from rear in 1m novice at Newcastle (AW) on recent reappearance; now switches to a handicap and he needs a close look.

Defied this mark at Goodwood (1m, good to soft) in June but he seems to have gone off the radar since and was a remote fourth at Ascot last month; this return to Polytrack is no problem (C&D winner) but he needs to rediscover his spark.

Won at Kempton (AW) in January on second start and followed up in another 7f novice there; his pedigree suggests turf should be fine and he may have needed the run at Goodwood in May after a break (7f, good; soundly beaten), but he's back from some more time off today and others have less to prove. |

No joy since her two wins early last summer but was a close third at Goodwood (1m1f, good to firm) on her penultimate run and she didn't get the breaks in a tactical race at Ascot last time; this should set up better for her closing style and she has claims if she gets some luck.

All of his 15 runs have been at 7f and he's a dual course winner; no show in a Racing League event at Newcastle last time but he's well handicapped on his best form this season including a close second here in April; looks worth a try at this new trip and he's not ruled out on this drop back in grade.

Beaten 2l into seventh in the International Stakes at Ascot four weeks ago (off this mark); while that wasn't a vintage renewal of that prestigious 7f handicap, the form is already working out well and he's one to take seriously; promise in one run on Tapeta last year. |

Off the mark at the seventh attempt when leading close him in a C&D handicap (blinkers added) in August; up 3lb but that latest form has been boosted by the second and fourth since and this well-bred gelding is open to more progress; shortlisted.

Had a wide trip and didn't look straightforward when fifth of 13 behind Desfondado over C&D in June; well beaten on soft turf latest (1m2f); not fully exposed and in good hands but the blinkers need to give him a lift. |

Bred to be useful and shaped better than the bare result when fifth of 13 at Kempton (1m, AW) ten days ago, never nearer after racing wide; this longer trip should be well within his range and he still has untapped potential; one of the likelier ones. |
