Front-runner; two 5f wins on AW; 0-8 on turf but she didn't go down by much when third at Hamilton (5f, good) this month; she produced a much weaker finish there since, though, and her stamina will be tested on this stiffer track; yard won this in 2025.

Arrived late from off the pace to win at Wolverhampton this month and ran just as well in defeat at Lingfield where again he did his best work late on; this stiffer 5f should suit him well.

Enjoyed a fine 2025 when a six-time winner (from 5f to 7f); ended up with a lot to do when good third of 13 in 1m Thirsk handicap two weeks ago so he's a player off an unchanged mark.

Won six races at 5f-7f between January and May 2025 but off after a lesser effort in July and down the field here on his return in April; has gone close over the extended 7f at Beverley so should stay an easy 1m if back to full strength but others look stronger for the win.

Six wins in the first half of 2025, notably when seeing off 21 rivals at York last May; absent for nine months but Paul Mulrennan has been booked for his return (two wins and two seconds from five rides on him) and this should be run to suit.

She's failed to kick on from her promising debut fourth at Leicester last May, but there were encouraging signs here last month back from a break when she faded having shown pace; could improve for that run and/or the return to sprinting and she's one to consider.
