Untested at this trip. Last appeared when third over 515m at Hove. With even luck and a clean start he should be prominent at the business end.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 2.75 lengths at Monmore (38.49) beating Onceina Lifetime in a OR on July 11. Can make it two on the bounce.

In the money at Monmore at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 480m. Won't find this any harder. Hard to beat with even luck.
