In good form this summer and bounced back from some disappointing efforts to go down in a battle over C&D last time. A visor has helped and every chance of going one better tonight.
Both career successes have come over C&D. Won with a bit in hand last month and a 5lb rise seems fair. A good run from the runner-up Thello in the 7:45 would be a pointer.
Lightly raced and largely disappointing since a debut success at Southwell. Last of 14 here a month ago and hard to see new equipment making that significant a difference.
Winner at Chester this term and produced a fair effort on AW debut three weeks ago. That run confirmed the impression she is too high in the weights for now.
Two-time AW winner over this trip in 2015 when with Roger Varian, form since is fairly patchy but outran odds of 50/1 when 2½L fourth to Newmarket Warrior here a month ago. Reared and got stuck in the stalls last time.
Landed a couple of races for Adrian Keatley but well beaten in all starts since and on only previous AW outing.
Twice a winner here and highly impressive when scoring three weeks after travelling strongly throughout. Carries a 6lb penalty so is on another career-high mark, but he has further improvement in his big frame and holds leading claims.
Winner of a Kempton maiden but only sporadic glimpses of that ability since. Appears to have gone off the boil since her second at Doncaster. Has missed the break on her last six Flat starts before finishing tailed off on hurdling debut.

Breanski (6/4), Newmarket Warrior (5/2), Rey Loopy (9/2), International Law (7/1), Majdool (8/1), Alpine Dream (12/1), Table Manners (12/1), Sumner Beach (20/1), Fire Palace (25/1), Nice Vintage (100/1)
REY LOOPY was so impressive when scoring here last time he is impossible to overlook as he could easily have been hit with a much stiffer mark given how easily he travelled into the race. Newmarket Warrior also had something in hand when scoring here last time and rates an obvious danger. International Law debuts for a new yard on his first AW start and so has questions to answer. Breanski finished clear of the third when going down in a driving finish last time. He is another to consider with his revised mark not looking as bad against the other newly assessed runners.
