'Prolific winner on fast ground; ran surprisingly well last week in the mud'

'Recent maiden winner and another good handicap effort at Ascot two weeks ago'

'Below par of late but has won this race three times in four years; on a good mark'

'Capable of a big run but below par the last twice; a tough race in which to bounce back'

'Second at Windsor three starts back and feasible excuses since then'

'Hasn't been ideally drawn in either run since returning from six months off'

'Ran well in a 6f handicap at Salisbury latest and stiffer finish here should be a help'

'He's running well and the return of cheekpieces isn't necessarily a negative'

'Visor worked at Carlisle last time but he's off a career-high mark after going up 5lb'

'Solid form claims on this year's best; ground was too soft last week at Doncaster'

'Only 2lb higher than for an impressive summer win; drying ground in his favour'
