Makes his first start for this yard having been in good form for his old one last year winning three handicaps. Lightly-raced on the AW (placed twice) but no great record fresh coming back from a lengthy break for his new yard although has won off a 2lb higher mark.
Smart handicapper at best although the losing run is starting to stack up and his most recent start on the turf at Meydan was a poor one. Makes his debut on this surface against some in-form types and won't find life easy off this mark.
Progressive sort who has a really good record over C&D but faces his stiffest handicap test yet off a mark 14lb higher than his last handicap run. Did run well in a Listed contest over C&D last time out (finished 3rd) and travels very strongly in his races.
Has run well on a variety of AW surfaces but makes his debut at this track (has won on Polytrack elsewhere). Not in quite the same form since his mark climbed to this level and faces a fairly stiff test here.
Globe- trotting sprinter who has been a winner in Chile and Sweden in his time. Cut little ice on his GB debut over 6f at Wolverhampton off a 2lb higher mark and clearly has work to do with the majority of these based on that run.
Hard to fault his record on the AW this year which reads 13212 and turned in a career best last time out with this rider on board. Up another 1lb here and now 5lb above his last winning mark but should give this a good go from the front.
Useful handicapper but is 0/6 on the AW and returns from a long break here with no great record fresh. This looks a tough task on her seasonal return.
Forecasts
Verne Castle (5/2), Bowson Fred (3/1), Watchable (7/2), Zac Brown (9/2), Kimberella (11/2), Iseemist (33/1), Old Fashioned (50/1)
A quality sprint handicap full of interest and Zac Brown although he might have to improve a little again, could get the run of the race here from the front and he has a good record on the AW of late. Both Kimbrella and Watchable are more than capable of winning handicaps such as this but the former may well need the run. VERNE CASTLE faces a stiff test but his stable know how to handle one of his type and this strong traveller is well worth supporting over a C&D that he acts well around.
