'Running creditably but has had only one go at 2m (last September) and did not persuade'

'Close second in this race (soft) off 1lb lower and should be primed for another bold show'

'Absent since May; a renowned mud lover but with something to prove over this far.'

'Better than ever when winning the Cesarewitch Trial at Newmarket and should have a big say'

'Won over C&D (good to soft) this July; needs to bounce back from two heavy defeats'

'On a hat-trick after Carlisle (2m1f, good) and Ripon (2m, soft; streaked 10l clear)'

'Won from the front at Kempton (2m, AW) in July and Haydock (1m6f, heavy) 15 days ago'

'2lb out of the handicap but the return to 2m in the mud offers possibilities'

'0-10 this season, nearly winning one in August but beaten over 20l on last two outings'

'Blew it badly at the start four weeks ago after nearly four months off; visor back'
