'2nd of 6 at Fakenham (2m4f, good; 8-11, first tongue-tie) in March in his second handicap'

'Has shown a glimmer of ability but not much in his two runs after a 425-day absence'

'0-4 in points and 0-7 under rules, with big backward steps in his last two handicaps'

'Ran creditably once in last four starts; return to good ground could be a notable positive'

'Disappointing favourite in December and out of form when back for two races last month'

'No win since March 2021 but mighty close at Hexham (2m7f, good) off career-low mark latest'

'After nearly a year off, failed to beat a rival in two runs last October when last seen'

'Needs better on this handicap debut, with another step up in trip'

'2nd with visor enlisted on last two outings (hurdle/chase); stays 3m and firmly in the mix'

'His creditable runs have become too occasional but penultimate start was one of them'
