Dual Listed winner. Most wins have been in blinkers, but his last two have been without headgear. Went close at Lingfield last month from 2lb lower, but needs to raise his game to be winning from today's mark.

Went close on more than one occasion last season before returning from a break to win at Newmarket in October (1m2f, good to soft), when 5lb lower. Open to further progress on this reappearance, and acts on fast ground. Claims.

Reeled off a hat-trick last spring, including over slightly further on good to firm, when 9lb lower. That stamina may well come into play on this stiff track, and he has to be very much respected from this mark on his return.

Hasn't won on turf for three years and returns to action with tongue-tie off and a bit now to prove after a wind operation.

Both wins have been on softer ground, but he has gone close on good to firm. Yet to prove himself over this far, but returns from wind surgery and this unexposed performer may be able to kick on again.

Scored over a similar trip on fast ground at York last season, when 4lb lower. Form tailed off after, but represents a top trainer-jockey combination and dangerous to write him off, despite a below par effort at Naas on return.

Very effective at this trip up to 1m4f, and acts on fast ground. However, his record when fresh leaves a bit to be desired.

Arrives in cracking form after a career-best win at Doncaster (1m2f, good) recently. Up 7lb for that, and takes on tougher opposition, so more needed, but enters calculations.
