Ice Cube
ICE CUBE is likely in much better heart than this season's form figures would suggest. He's taken to get off the mark down in class with Oisin Murphy aboard for the first time. Unexposed Piazza could do better eased in grade, while Twilight Glow and Madman both have solid claims at the weights.

Lightly-raced maiden who again shaped better than the bare result when beaten less than 2 lengths in better race at Newmarket (7f) last time. Seems tactically versatile and can capitalise on drop in grade under Oisin Murphy.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewmarket (july)7fGood to FirmFlat6/11Newmarket (july)6fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/5Goodwood7fGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat6/9Doncaster7f 213yGood to SoftFlat5/14Redcar7f 219yGood to FirmFlat3/9- 1(2)PiazzaJ: Hector CrouchT: Ollie Sangster4334-5Age 3SP5/111/2

Steadily progressive in turf maidens last summer. Beaten just under 4 lengths second time up in a handicap at Kempton (7f) on return. Lightly-raced 3-y-o may well improve back on turf with a run under her belt.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat5/12Sandown Park7fSoftFlat4/5Nottingham6f 18yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat3/9Chepstow6f 16yGoodFlat3/6Salisbury5fGood to FirmFlat4/4- 2(6)Eyes FrontJ: Alistair RawlinsonT: Edward Smyth-Osbourne6-65555Age 3SP5/16/1

Often slow starting type who was pipped in Haydock maiden as a juvenile. Closest he's come to matching that form when fifth of 15 in first-time blinkers at Doncaster. Still didn't look entirely straightforward (hung right) last time, though yard since off the cold list.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDoncaster7f 6yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat5/15Windsor1m 31yGood to FirmFlat5/10Windsor1m 31yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/8Yarmouth6f 3yGood to FirmFlat5/7Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat6/8- 7(5)MadmanJ: Mason PaetelT: Rachel Cook & John Bridger1525692Age 3SP13/27/1

Winner at Kempton for Tom Ward in January (6f). Back in similar form when runner-up on third start for current yard in Salisbury handicap (6f, heavy) last time. Looks ready for another try at 7f and is weighted to go well under good-value apprentice.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSalisbury6fSoftFlat2/11Windsor6f 12yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat9/12Windsor6f 12yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat6/13Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat5/10Lingfield Park6f 1yStandardFlat2/7- 4(3)Twilight GlowJ: Rob HornbyT: Jonathan Portman9-40586Age 3SP15/28/1

Split a now-fairly useful pair when runner-up in Newbury maiden last autumn. Hasn't built on reappearance fourth at Kempton this season, but he's slipped to an attractive mark as a result.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosFfos Las7f 80yGood (Good To Firm in places)Flat6/7Windsor1m 31yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat8/9Goodwood7fGood to Soft (Soft in places)Flat5/9Ascot6fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat14/19Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat4/7- 5(7)Sun Of DollyJ: Neil CallanT: John Gallagher76-648Age 3SP8/115/2

Ran best race when 1½-length fourth on handicap bow at Windsor (6f, good). Given a break since running below that form at Haydock (7f) in late-May, and he's well worth another go at this trip back under less testing conditions.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosHaydock Park6f 212ySoft (Heavy in places)Flat8/12Windsor6f 12yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/13Leicester6fGoodFlat6/13Doncaster6f 2yHeavyFlat6/9Newbury6f 110ySoftFlat7/8- 9(8)Karisma's AngelJ: Kieran ShoemarkT: Ed Walker060-62Age 3SP9/110/1

Related to useful types. Ran better than on handicap bow without ever threatening wide-margin winner at Wolverhampton in February. Returns from 5 months off with yard among winners, though she'll need to improve to get off the mark on turf debut.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat2/8Lingfield Park1m 1yStandardFlat6/8Southwell7f 14yStandardFlat11/14Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat6/11Newmarket (rowley)7fGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat10/11- 6(1)Credit Forgedd ItJ: Sean LeveyT: Simon Dow452-594Age 3SP22/120/1

Exposed maiden. Sold cheaply out of the Richard Hannon yard prior to finishing well-held fourth of 6 at Brighton (7f) on return. He's at least entitled to come on for that run.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosBrighton6f 210yGood to FirmFlat4/6Wolverhampton6f 20yStandardFlat9/9Lingfield Park1m 1yStandard / SlowFlat5/6Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat2/8Lingfield Park6f 1yStandardFlat5/7- Non-Runners

Best form to date over 7f on the all-weather. Again finished well held over longer trip at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last time. Something to find at the weights, however, she isn't fully exposed back on turf.
