Form & Verdict
He had been running well enough in handicaps on turf and AW but the application of a visor transformed him at Leicester last week (7f, good to soft) as he tanked through the race and won by the thick end of 4l; looks well in under a penalty and he's been found another weak race.

Four wins divided between AW and turf; ideally positioned through the race when narrowly scoring at Kempton (7f) but this consistent 4yo has clear claims.

Won on stable debut at Lingfield (7f, Polytrack) in December and back near that level when 1l fourth there (7f) ten days ago; also effective over this C&D and could have a big part to play under regular rider Harry Vigors.

Well beaten in three AW runs in second half of 2024; gelded prior to this handicap debut and bred to be better than this level; market instructive.

Off the mark when winning at Brighton (6f, good; first-time hood) in August; hood removed when coming home nicely to make a winning return from a three-month break at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in January and has been off again since; leaves the impression the step back up to 1m will prove no issue.

Improved since being gelded, finishing second in successive turf starts before winning at Brighton (6f, good; first-time hood) in August; well below par when upped to 1m at Chelmsford (Polytrack) latest; still has a bit to prove on this surface but could have a say.

Not beaten far at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and she's been dropped another 2lb since; has to prove herself over 7f but she is drawn nearest the rail and could yet have a bigger run in her.

Versatile sort who won three times last year including at Leicester (1m, good to firm) and over C&D (heavy); now 2lb lower than for her AW win in December but things have not gone well in two runs this season; got hampered by a faller when pulled up at Lingfield on Tuesday but she needs a major revival back at this track; yard also runs Neptune Legend.

Won at Bath (5.5f, heavy) and Kempton (6f, AW) last year, but she beat only one rival home at Kempton last month following a 63-day break; has won over 1m so this step back up in trip will be no issue, and she won't be inconvenienced by any rain.

Mostly campaigned on AW but he's now 2-9 on turf having landed C&D classified (good to firm) in June and Lingfield handicap (7f, good) last Tuesday; took advantage of a golden highway that day but did well to pick his way through from the rear and he's respected under a 5lb penalty (1lb well in).

T: Jim & Suzi Best

In good form in the depths of winter, winning two 7f handicaps at Chelmsford; edging back down the weights after some below-par runs but returning to 5f, even in a race that is highly likely to be run at a fast pace, is unlikely to revive his fortutnes.
