WARDLAW comes with a health warning, but he's talented and may well follow up his breakthrough victory at Beverley. What's The Plan is feared most tackling 1½m for the first time. High Storm and Bay of Myths are others to consider in a competitive handicap for the grade.

VerdictShaded a close finish in a falsely-run handicap at Hamilton (13f) in July. This likely to be a greater test of his stamina, but he's clearly in good form, travelling smoothly when 3½ lengths fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Ayr (1¼m) last time.- 2.

VerdictImproved steadily in novice/maiden company, opening his account at fourth attempt at Doncaster (1¼m) in March (looks fairly treated on that form). No immediate impact in couple of 3-y-o handicaps, however, he's in good hands and could be worth another chance following a 3-month break.

VerdictHalf-brother to couple of smart middle-distance winners. Justified heavy support starting out at Chelmsford in March. Never seemed happy at Redcar the following month (since gelded) but remains with plenty of potential now handicapping following 4 months off.- 4.

VerdictReturned an improved model this season and looked unlucky not to double his career tally when ½-length second (fourth won since) at Sandown (1¼m) last time. High on the shortlist with the possibility of more to come over this longer trip (bred to suit on dam's side).

VerdictMaiden who lost her way for Johnny Murtagh in 2024. Seen only twice for present yard, latest when soundly beaten on return from 12 months off at Hamilton in early-June.- 6. WardlawJ: Kevin StottT: Sir Mark Prescott BtF: 054-52231

VerdictQuirky, good-looking sort. Still raw/uncoordinated when forging clear for an improved 4¾-length success at Beverley (1½m) latest, justifying support in a change of headgear. Little doubt that he has the ability to progress/follow up, but whether he has the inclination remains to be seen.

Verdict125,000 gns son of Camelot. Best effort when staying-on third in 9f novice at Goodwood last season. Hasn't looked resolute in a couple of starts this year, failing to improve for the switch to a handicap (following a gelding operation) at Sandown (1¼m) latest. At least worth a go over further here.

VerdictMuch improved when making all under Billy Loughnane on second handicap start at Yarmouth. Couldn't repeat the feat against better opposition when 7 lengths second of 3 there subsequently, and this doesn't look any easier.- Unnamed Favourite
