Step back in the right direction when third at Salisbury (1m4f; good to firm). Doesn't tend to win very often (1-28), but sole career success came over this C&D last June. Only 1lb above the mark he scored off that day.

This yard have made an excellent start to the season and remain in good form over the last 14 days (3-8; 38%). Bumped into the improving Oleg at Southwell (2m; standard) when last seen. Drops back in trip but doesn't look especially well treated.

One of two runners in this race for the stable. Fifth at Chepstow (1m4f; good) on what was his first run for nine months. 7lb below last winning mark and has place claim if able to build upon that effort.

0-8 and now looks to be going backwards if anything judged on her most recent two efforts in defeat since she has returned to the track this summer. Can only be watched given the form she is in at present.

15lb below his last winning mark but hinted at a revival when second to in-form rival who had the benefit of race fitness over 1m5f at this track recently. Interesting to see how he goes in the market.

Turned out quickly after building on solid recent effort to break his duck at the 20th attempt over C&D on Saturday. Receives weight from all his rivals and could go in again if none the worse for quick turnaround.

Forecasts

Hidden Depths (11/10), Sufi (4/1), Agent Gibbs (11/2), Baladio (17/2), Cotton Club (9/1), Arty Campbell (12/1), Borak (14/1)

Verdict

It took 20 attempts, but he finally broke his duck on Saturday over a furlong further at this track and HIDDEN DEPTHS is fancied to quickly follow up that victory. He travelled into the contest smoothly before winning comfortably so is evidently in tremendous nick. After he returned to form to finish second over C&D on his first run of 2020, Agent Gibbs has to have solid place claims once again and he could be well handicapped off this reduced mark. Meanwhile Sufi has won and finished second on his last two visits to this track so should have a part to play as should Cotton Club for the in-form George Boughey.
