'In form but the principal concern here is the significant rise in distance'

'Solid runs the last twice and could be an improver over this new distance'

'First and second on his recent visits here; can lack concentration but he's running well'

'Downgraded from better races and definite signs of a return to form at Haydock latterly'

'Modest last time but he's won before on the back of a disappointing effort'

'Blinkers backfired last time; had been threatening before then and cheekpieces return'

'Upped in grade so has more on his plate than when winning off a lower mark at Newcastle'
