Recorded very useful effort when second in strong 1¼m Newmarket handicap on final 3-y-o run. Has been unable to make a significant impact in some good contests this year and now tackles longer trip.
|
Scored over here last July (good to firm) and registered another good effort at the track when second over 2m (soft) in October, both under today's rider Pat Dobbs. Claims if primed for this return.
|
Scored at Wolverhampton under Tom Marquand in December but it's hard to get excited by his 2 efforts this spring, including back on turf last time.
|
Progressive last year, culminating with second in very competitive Rowley Cup at Newmarket (1½m, soft) on final start. Likely unsuited by quicker ground on return and remains one to be interested in.
|
Winless last season but three times runner-up in 1¼m handicaps, including on soft. Beaten before stamina an issue when stepped up to this trip final start. Remains relatively low-mileage.
|
Fairly useful middle-distance stayer who ended 2020 with a good third in the November Handicap at Doncaster. Races off the same mark so capable of having a say if ready to roll on reappearance.
|
Creditable in-frame efforts on all 3 outings last yea and another good run when fourth of 16 on Newbury reappearance. Consistent but wide stall could prove tricky.
|
Excellent fourth in King George V handicap over C&D at last year's Royal meeting. Reappeared with all-the-way Epsom success 18 days ago and he has the potential for better again. Big player.
|
A good advert for his new trainer, scoring over this trip at Kempton and Doncaster (good). Form of latter win boosted by second going in next time so ought to remain competitive despite 6 lb rise.

LOUGANINI may well have been unsuited by a quick surface on his Pontefract reappearance and is probably worth another chance as his 3-y-o form looks solid. Group One Power rates an obvious danger after his recent Epsom success, while Labeebb was a good third on his sole previous visit here and may strip fitter for his AW reappearance.
