VerdictImproved handicapping/upped in trip, scoring at Redcar (14f) in May and following up at Nottingham (14f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago. 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent further success. - 5. WestlainJ: Kieran ShoemarkT: Jack JonesF: 54-093

VerdictLightly-raced maiden who was suited by step up in trip when very good third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, soft) 33 days ago. May have more to offer yet.

VerdictMade winning return at Bath (11.6f) in April and run creditably in defeat since, latest when second of 6 in handicap at Ffos Las (14f, soft) 18 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again.- 3. TazamanJ: Mason PaetelT: Kevin FrostF: 5592-5311

VerdictReturned to winning ways at Leicester (11.8f) in May and followed up, off 5 lb higher, in 7-runner handicap at Bath (17.1f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Remains feasibly treated for hat-trick bid.

VerdictTook a step forward on his handicap bow when scoring at Kempton (12f) in April and matched that form when runner-up at Salisbury (12f) the following month. Not quite in same form over longer trip latest, however and others are more appealing.
