'In form until last time; now has to bounce back in a competitive, classier race'

'Won in these aids on Boxing Day and they now return for first time since; stable debut'

'Multiple winner at about 2m and ran surprisingly well on stable debut over 2m6f here'

'The oldest member of this field and with a good bit to prove now'

'Bang there in two of her three handicaps for Dan Skelton without looking ahead of her mark'

'Underwhelming latest effort but he has the ability to go very well'
