Won three times when with previous yard including over 1m4f at Newmarket in October 2014. Unraced since finishing fourth at that track in August 2015 and a non-runner twice in recent times.

Impressive 7L winner of a handicap here over an extended 1m2f in August. Disappointing in two starts since then however including on soft ground at Salisbury last time out and races off a 12lb higher mark than for that success today. Wears a hood for the first time here.

Successful twice in France for previous yard but well beaten on debut this stable off a 2lb higher mark at Pontefract earlier this month. Likely better than he showed on that occasion and worth a check in the market here.

Wearing first time blinkers in addition to the usual tongue tie when successful off a 6lb lower mark over 1m3f at Kempton in September. Well held twice subsequently including at that same track last time out and may find one or two too good here.

Registered a double over an extended 1m and over 1m1f last year. Only subsequent start came when beaten ½L on good ground at York in October. Upped in trip for his handicap debut here (last of four on only previous start over 1m4f).

Finished 1L third over an extended 1m2f at York in June last year. Well beaten on his only subsequent start last season and a similar story on his seasonal debut at Ripon last week. Has won off a 1lb higher mark in the past.

Done most of her racing over much shorter than today's trip but did finish runner-up over an extended 1m2f at York (good) in October. Weakened over an extended 1m at Nottingham earlier this month and probably best watched in this.

Both victories so far have come on the AW at Kempton. Most recent of those came off a 2lb lower mark over 1m4f in September and he has been gelded since finishing fourth at that same track in November.

Forecasts

Fidaawy (2/1), Sam Missile (3/1), Hail Clodius (5/1), Just Hiss (13/2), Banish (15/2), Marsh Pride (10/1), Farquhar (10/1), Maraakib (16/1), Storm Rock (16/1), Wotabreeze (25/1), Ashkoul (33/1)

Verdict

JUST HISS won two of his final three starts last season at up to 1m1f and on both occasions shaped as if he'd benefit from a step up in trip. Fidaawy wears a hood for the first time and has won here in the past and looks likely to play a hand in the finish on his seasonal debut while Hail Clodius and Banish can fight it out for the minor honours in what looks a decent contest.
  1. Just Hiss
  2. Fidaawy
