Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a one length second over 515m Sandown in 29.64. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Could only manage eighth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (29.64) over 515m at Sandown. Has a solid record off the tricky draw and can measure up.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 525m at The Meadows. Likely to find this too tough.

Didn't make the placings last time at Sale (29.55) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length fifth. Has three wins and five placings from nine starts from the draw. Looks one of the chances.
