'Successsful stable debut at Bangor (2m7f, heavy) but thrown into a better race here'

'He could sink or swim in the new blinkers but has to be taken seriously with his form'

'Sauntered home at Newbury and a 7lb rise seems very fair; will love the conditions'

'6lb higher mark seemed to anchor him at Huntingdon but again he ran well'

'On the downgrade but bucked up his ideas and went close two weeks ago at Doncaster'

'Well-backed winner of two 3m handicaps this season; likeable in how he did it at Sandown'

'Better known as a chaser; rated 6lb lower hurdling and trip/ground will be fine'

'Fifth at Sandown off this mark but getting back in the mud won't do him any harm'

'Behind three of these at Chepstow last time but that was only his second handicap start'

'Consistent and off a tough mark it makes sense to claim 5lb through Angus Cheleda'

'Dropped out tamely last time; tries cheekpieces but best days look behind him'

'Impressive over 2m3f; perhaps something came to light after weakening over 3m latest'
