Resumed at this track over 1600m last time out and finished fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Rates highly and is among the leading hopes.

Still in first campaign. Has been unable to fill a placing for a while, last start finishing 11th over 1200m at this track five-and-a-half weeks ago. Sure to be thereabouts.

Just a plain effort first up when eighth over 1600m at Chelmsford. Has a very strong second-up record. Solid top-three claims if anywhere near his best.

Went down by just a neck when second at Wolverhampton over 1700m last time out. Shapes as a key runner.

Was beaten just 0.8 lengths when third at his latest appearance at this track over 1600m. Leading prospect.

Has not raced since finishing sixth over 1600m at Newmarket (Rowley) on October 31. Good fresh performer. Has to be respected.

Well held at both runs this time in, most recently when beaten 9 lengths into 12th over 1400m at this track. Must improve sharply.

Made it three unplaced runs from three starts this time in work when ninth over 2000m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Will need to do a bit more.
