Newmarket

Won 2 of his 4 starts at 3 yrs and took another step forward when second in 7-runner C&D handicap on his reappearance 16 days ago, running on. Type to go on improving and holds leading claims.

Winner at Kempton in December and quickly back on the up when second of 9 in 7f handicap there (7f, 15/2) 37 days ago, albeit better placed than most. Needs to prove he's as effective on turf.

A second breathing operation perhaps the making of him, scoring at Doncaster and Thirsk in recent weeks. Had winning run ended at Musselburgh on most recent outing but shaped as if still in top form from a less-than-ideal position.

Improved when registering 7f wins at Chepstow/Epsom last summer and continued her progress when making the frame in big field, fast-ground handicaps at Goodwood and York. Conditions perhaps not ideal at Ascot on final run of last term and shaped well when fifth of 7 on C&D reappearance. Player.

C&D who made a promising start for new connections when fourth of 19 at Doncaster (6f, good, 9/1) in March, first home in group. Run best excused here last time and remains better judged on eye-catching reappearance.

C&D winner who probably needed the run when sixth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) on reappearance 16 days ago, not knocked about. Work to do from his current mark.

Useful performer who completed a hat-trick in Munich listed event (6.5f) in October. Solid third in Group 2 at Milan on final start for Roland Dzubasz but looks high enough in the weights on UK/stable debut.
