How's The Guvnor (G)
[H]
Won twice in succession at Wolverhampton and Southwell but found run of good form coming to a halt under a penalty back here 2 weeks ago, possibly finding another quick run coming too soon. Revised mark has kicked in.

Corundum (G)

[PT]
Remains a maiden but best effort for a while when second of 9 in handicap here over 8.6f (9/2) 42 days ago, no match for well-handicapped winner after leading early in straight. Player off same mark.

Won twice here including over 7f in September but twelfth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (28/1) 13 days ago, well held in a change of headgear after 10 weeks off. Drops back in trip now.
