'Perennial loser until notching C&D win last month; good 1m run since and Purton up again.'

'Equalled his best finish with C&D second ten days ago; compromised by wide draw here.'

'Has run some fair races during 12 defeats; new trainer and headgear; absent since June.'

'Fair fifth but behind three of these rivals over C&D last time; goes again off 1lb lower'

'Finally broke duck over C&D in June; poor recent first run for this trainer; blinkers on.'

'Slightly better effort last time (6f) but still hard to fancy after nine unplaced outings.'

'Runner-up in last three starts; upped 1lb for latest C&D run; has wide draw to overcome.'

'Has racked up 16 successive defeats; upped from 6f following two poor efforts this term.'

'Fourth in similar event over C&D on return 12 days ago; might sneak into the frame again.'

'Poor form but may be transformed by recent wind operation; second in trial eight days ago.'

'Largely off colour of late but twice finished placed in the spring and likes this C&D.'

'Posted one of his best Sha Tin efforts over C&D last time; remains reasonably handicapped.'

'Effective at 6f/7f; solid second on recent comeback; could make bold bid from the front.'

'Seems better on the dirt these days and recent reappearance run was most disappointing.'
