Silk And Steel
SILK AND STEEL posted his best effort to date when successful over C&D last month and may be able to make it 2-2 at this track. Potential pacesetter Ricardo Phillips beat a pair of next time out winners at Leicester last time and could prove dangerous if coping with this different test. Zaeim Alharb represents shrewd connections and could be interesting if handling conditions on his handicap debut, while 3-time course winner Fighting Poet won't be inconvenienced should the ground become testing.

Performer over 11.9f who was narrowly beaten in July before winning a 6-runner handicap at Leicester (4/1) 47 days ago, making all and just holding on. Beat two subsequent winners that day and could prove dangerous if handling this different test.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLeicester1m 3f 179yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat1/6Leicester1m 3f 179yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/7Leicester1m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/10Bath1m 2f 37yGoodFlat3/10Southwell1m 4f 14yStandardFlat4/10- 10(6)Both Of UsJ: Jack CallanT: George Boughey8670454Age 311/211/26/1

From a good yard and ran best race to date when fourth of 12 in conditions race at Lingfield (AW) 20 days ago (7/1) wearing tongue strap first time (retained). Interesting if she can build on that back on turf.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLingfield Park1m 4fStandardFlat4/12Lingfield Park1m 2fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/10Salisbury1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/10Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat10/14Doncaster6f 2yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat7/8- 9(4)Silk And SteelJ: Luke MorrisT: Gary & Josh Moore80-9715Age 36/15/111/2

Won over this course and distance 39 days ago, having improved for the step up in trip (Fighting Poet back in third won next time). Not in the same form on the all-weather last time but previous course form looks solid. Merits respect back in a handicap.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLingfield Park1m 4fStandardFlat5/12Brighton1m 3f 198yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/7Lingfield Park2m 68yGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat7/7Newton Abbot2m 167yGood (Good to Firm in places)Hurdle1/8Windsor1m 2fGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat9/10- 8(7)Zaeim AlharbJ: Pat CosgraveT: James Owen659Age 313/211/26/1

Three-time Brighton winner including once over this C&D. Won 7-runner handicap over 10f at this track (13/2) 27 days ago, staying on strongly to lead in the final half-furlong and draw clear. Has proven form over this longer trip and conditions no problem.

Has been in good form recently with two runner-up efforts before winning at Brighton over 11.9f (7/2) 27 days ago, making headway to lead entering the final furlong. Course and distance winner who's found form again after a mid-season break and should remain competitive.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBrighton1m 3f 198yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/5Lingfield Park1m 3f 133yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/10Brighton1m 3f 198yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/7Brighton1m 3f 198yGood to FirmFlat6/8Lingfield Park1m 4fStandardFlat12/13- 3(10)IrezumiJ: Luke CattonT: Jim Boyle3212230Age 57/18/115/2

Ran well at Brighton with second and third in C&D handicaps recently but finished last of 11 in handicap at Epsom (22/1) 4 days ago, always behind.

Better over shorter trips, creditable third of 9 at Brighton (8f) 14 days ago (14/1) but that was a weak race.
