Gelded, up in trip and yard debut when 2nd over C&D last month; unexposed; plenty to like
7 (3)	Both Of Us Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	J:Billy Loughnane T:George Boughey	132	t	541122	62	71	52	10d	—	—	+4	26.2	4/1 20%
Improved over 1m4f last month, with form figures of 1122; up in trip again; big player

Solid over C&D of late, won in August then second latest; same mark; leading contender

Drops back in grade and stays this trip but not the percentage call on this rare AW outing

Won 3rd C&D race one month ago; flopped latest but that was messy; could well bounce back
2 (6)	Gastronomy Chestnut J:Cam Hardie T:Philip Kirby	J:Cam Hardie T:Philip Kirby	138	p	455363	60	70	41	31d	—	—	+4	8	33/1 3%

2nd of five (28-1) over C&D three weeks ago but that was a messy event; bit more needed
3 (4)	Reel Her In Bay J:Andrew Mullen T:Ben Haslam	J:Andrew Mullen T:Ben Haslam	137	—	2-4341	59	67	33	—	—	—	+4	6.5	50/1 2%
Won (2m1f, good to soft) in May; 2lb nudge is fair but big hurdles defeat when last seen

17-race maiden; heavy defeats on last two starts; switch back to AW isn't enough to tempt
