2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Kempton in April. 33/1, below form tenth of 16 in handicap at York (7.9f, firm) 14 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Back up in trip.

5/2
C&D winner. Good third of 9 in handicap (17/2) at Redcar (10f, good) 3 days ago, plenty to do under 2f out and running on. Not out of things from this mark but his tardiness at the start is often a concern.

Strike rate is hardly compelling but he's highly consistent and well ridden to end losing run a shade readily in 13-runner Hamilton handicap (8.3f) 18 days ago. Clearly at the top of his game but this sort of trip may just be at the limit of his stamina.

8/1
Fallen long way in weights and confirmed his effectiveness fresh when ending losing run from the front over C&D 6 weeks ago, showing a good attitude to boot. Remains with handicapping scope on old form but this is tougher.

5/2
C&D winner. Good second of 14 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good, 10/3) 18 days ago, no room on inner over 1f out and staying on. Remains less exposed than most and very much of interest again.

7/1
Sixth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good, 15/2) 13 days ago, weakening over 1f out. May have needed the run on back of 4 months off then and better showing anticipated in re-fitted cheekpieces.

A C&D maiden winner as a 3-y-o, NIGWA took another step forward without being seen to very best effect when runner-up at Hamilton (9.2f) last month. She gets the narrow vote to confirm the promise of that run from a 1 lb higher mark, with Baryshnikov and Hamilton-scorer Pisanello heading up the dangers.
