Made the frame in a couple of Irish maidens last season around 1m-1m2f. Has twice changed hands without a run since then and also been gelded. Yard in decent form and with this pilot up he looks interesting.
Runner-up in a Newbury maiden in October (6½f, good to soft) but failed to get competitive next time and switched to current yard from Mick Channon after being gelded. Well beaten on return run, but on a reasonable mark for his handicap debut now. Market check suggested.
Was readied to win on her debut in a Nottingham maiden (1m½f, good) in 2015 and then only raced once last year when last of six at Ripon. Yard's runners going well enough and she is another about whom the market should prove informative.
A Lingfield seller over a similar trip and a Goodwood handicap (1m3f, good) from a mark of 70 are the two wins to his name. Well beaten on his return from 1lb higher than today, but should strip fitter for that and get more closely involved.
Put together back-to-back handicap wins over 1m2½f and 1m3½f in August 2015 when with Ivan Furtado. Was off for 17 months before returning in January, but well beaten in three starts at Wolverhampton this year. Now 4lb lower than his last turf mark and visored for the first time but will need a significant turnaround to score.
Goes well here, having won over C&D (good to firm) from a mark of 64 last year and also making the frame over 1m2f from the same mark last time. 1lb higher today, but back at this trip he looks a leading player.
Sent off at fancy prices on all six starts and has been dropping in the handicap just lately. Also comes back in trip for this after a recent pipe opener and could do better now, but does need to improve.

Forecasts
Sean O'Casey (13/8), Rubensian (5/2), Longside (3/1), Stoney Broke (5/1), Silca Star (11/2), Hard Toffee (10/1), Instill (20/1), Astrosecret (25/1)
Very much a race to keep a close eye on the market for as there are several who may be on the verge of an improved effort. SEAN O'CASEY is the suggestion, as he may appreciate this extra couple of furlongs and comes from a yard going well. Rubensian is of interest now dropped in grade, while Longside can get competitive and the lightly-raced Stoney Broke should be checked out regarding market vibes after a previous win when fresh.
