'Won off this mark in December but his two runs since haven't been quite so good'

'Fine servant who won't mind conditions & this should be run to suit; each-way shout'

'3-8 on AW; ran into a useful opponent last time; still improving and he's high on the list'

'The return of a hood should help and conditions hold no terrors; one to take seriously'

'High-class on his day; chance on even last year's best but others preferred after a break'

'Frustrating but he continues to run with great credit; new headgear today; in the mix'

'Group 3 placed last May but opposable on the balance of his form'

'Two AW wins last winter but absent since a below-par run at Wolverhampton in September'

'On a good mark; yet to find his best this winter but the type to come good soon'

'Smart sprinter on his day; this is less demanding than he's used to; yard in form; claims'

'Had fine year as a 6yo; tough return but he goes well fresh and could continue to progress'

'Three 5f handicap wins this winter, two of them here; others stronger over this trip'
