Had been running well in handicaps this season, before finding some progress taking on his elders for the first time when scoring over this C&D last month. Yet to run a bad race so he's not taken lightly.

Showed promise when third in a pair of novices at this course on first 2 starts. No match for the odds-on winner at Windsor (1¼m) 12 days ago, but she could still have more to offer as she goes handicapping back down in trip.

Placed on first 4 starts and has shaped promisingly sent handicapping the last twice, never-nearer fifth of 19 at York's Ebor meeting. Could be ready to open his account as he drops in grade.

Looked above average when making a winning debut in 7f novice at Kempton in May. Wasn't able to improve when third at Wetherby next time, but the form has been boosted by the first 2 since. Remains with potential as he makes a quick switch to handicaps.

Down the field in turf handicaps on first 3 outings this season, but produced a career best when scoring on the all-weather at Kempton last month. Left poorly placed when 2 lengths last of 7 at the same course 15 days ago, so he could bounce back (turf winner on debut).

Successful upped to 7f on final starts last year and got back on the up this season when going close in handicap at Newmarket (1m) in July. Drawn widest and again slowly away when down the field at York on latest outing. Blinkers added back down in grade.

Both wins on all-weather, making a successful seasonal debut for Ben Haslam in a Southwell novice (7f) in April. However, well held in handicap at York (6f) on final run for that yard and down the field on stable debut at Newmarket last month. Up in trip.

Confirmed the promise of his return when opening account in handicap at Salisbury (7f) in May. Has gone backwards from that effort in 3 subsequent outings, though.

Won 7f maiden at Newcastle on first start for present stable in November. Shaped well when third in handicap at Carlisle (1m) in June but not in the same form last 2 outings. Hood now reached for.
