Second from off the pace at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) on latest start; big form chance

Carlisle second (1m3f, soft) last time; switches headgear; should be seriously involved

Sir Lowry's Pass overhauled him late on at Goodwood (1m2f, good); has 7lb swing with him

Did well to win at Goodwood; Forest Gate (2nd) has 7lb swing but this is a useful prospect

Others have better form but he looks sure to improve, with this longer trip surely a help

Modest form on debut (7f, AW) and not so good at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) later in August
