IMPERIAL GUARD (6) was below-par when sixth at Ascot in August. Ran well among stronger company than this prior and the Andrew Balding trained colt shaped well when third in a Class Two handicap on the July Course here during the summer. Still retains potential off this mark. INGRA TOR (2) and MISS SHOW OFF (8) finished third and fourth respectively in this grade over 5f at Sandown last time. The former shaped as though stepping back up to 6f would suit and must enter calculations off the same mark while the latter was making her handicap debut and remains unexposed. DASHING DICK (4) also brings plenty of appeal.
