Two wins from his last five, the latest a step up in trip landing a handicap at Hexham by three lengths off a lower mark, show him progressing nicely as a stayer; today's trip and ground are already proven, though a moderate rating leaves him with plenty to find in this company.

Comment

Three wins in a row show good heart, aided by a yard in form, though he had to graft from off the pace to land it by a whisker last time; up in the weights with tongue-tie and cheekpieces added, there is scope further but little margin.

Comment

A front-running mare who is clearly progressive, following a smooth score down in trip last time at Fontwell when the chasing pack faded, for what looks a lenient rise in the weights; ground and trip are both proven, and with pace-forcing tactics likely again, she looks to have more in hand than most.

Comment

A revival last time at Warwick, beaten just a length back down in trip, followed a rough patch including an early exit and two blank efforts; cheekpieces go on for the first time, and a rating well above his official mark keeps him of real interest, though he remains winless in recent starts.

Comment

Three wins in his last five, the latest a taking success at Chepstow under rules, show him in tremendous form, and he has kept the momentum going with a point-to-point win since; today's trip and going are already proven, and fitness should be sharp off a short break.

Comment

Won two of five and already holds today's trip and going, though he faded late at Cartmel last time after racing too freely; a first-time tongue-tie may settle him, and on a fair rating the only doubt is fully seeing out this test.

Consistent form includes a win three starts back, though he was over-ridden and short of fitness when well held at Haydock last time following a break; first-time cheekpieces may help, and with today's trip and going already proven, the main question is matching what's now being asked of him.

A big gap between our figures and his current mark hints at untapped ability, with today's trip and going already proven and cheekpieces fitted for the first time to freshen him up; the worry is a wretched run of form climaxing in a well-beaten effort at Cartmel last time, leaving plenty to prove that the talent remains after time off.

Comment

A modest record under rules including just the one success in his last five, and last time's beaten effort at Pontefract came with little to suggest a bounce-back; the yard is out of form, stamina up in trip remains unproven, and today's ground alone offers a scrap of form to lean on.

Comment

Well beaten on his reappearance last time at Carlisle after a spell off, he has yet to show that his wins three and four starts back mean he retains that form; today's trip and going are already proven and the yard is in good order, but on our figures he rates the outsider of this field.

Comment

Back-to-back runner-up efforts underline real ability before a below-form run last time at Ludlow, when jumping errors crept in. A first-time tongue-tie may sharpen focus, and with today's trip and going already proven and a clear rating advantage over this field, he rates the one to beat on figures despite the interruption of a lengthy break.
