J: Duran Fentiman

T: Martin Dunne

Can lead; on a tempting mark relative to past turf form but he's 0-7 on the AW and has been well beaten since only just failing against Arlington over C&D in January; couldn't count on refitted blinkers, replacing a visor, returning him to form.

Triple turf winner who is 0-6 on AW surfaces; went close over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time tongue-tie and visor combination) but was well beaten without the visor back here latest; visor now returns but hard to be confident of another better effort.

Three turf wins for previous yard; 0-4 for current stable but went very close in visor over C&D most recently; possibilities, provided he's in similar form with the headgear removed.

Form & Verdict
Five-time sprint winner on a sound surface and, although running well, he was unable to peg back two more forwardly ridden rivals at Ayr last time; claims if the leaders go off quickly.

J: Lauren Young

T: Jim Goldie

Completed a hat-trick last August/September and she's capable of going close off her current mark if at her best; she's 3-3 here and perhaps the return to Thirsk will trigger a revival, but it very much needs to as she's not shone on her three outings this season.

Trainer won this last year with subsequent Group 1 winner American Affair; progressive last season and she's 1lb lower than when a close third of 18 over C&D (good) last October; however, well beaten on both starts this season (irregular heartbeat last time) and a major turnaround is needed.

14-66 and somewhat of a Hamilton Park specialist; creditable third to Vince L'Amour (Betweenthesticks second) over C&D on penultimate start but, that aside, she hasn't been overly competitive; easing mark (8lb below her last winning one) offers some hope.

J: James Sullivan

T: Ruth Carr

Kicked off the season with back-to-back 5f wins at Wolverhampton and Pontefract before being run down by Vince L'Amour over C&D (Hurt You Never third) next time; nowhere near those same levels at Pontefract (ninth of ten) latest, so needs to bounce back.

J: James Sullivan

T: Ruth Carr

He has returned from a six-month break in rude health, winning at Wolverhampton and over C&D (second C&D success) last month and running well in his hat-trick bid at Ripon a fortnight ago; wide draw not ideal for a front-runner but he isn't handicapped out of things; trainer also runs Jojo Rabbit.

J: James Sullivan

T: Ruth Carr

Returned from six months off with a win at Wolverhampton and he followed up with another narrow success at Pontefract (5f, good) 17 days ago; 3lb higher than for his front-running win last time but remains feasibly treated and is tactically versatile; key player for yard that won this in 2023 and 2025.

Had the run of the race when just touched off by a strong-finisher at Chepstow last week and, she's not without a chance, despite being 3lb out of the weights (due to go up that much from the weekend).

8yo who is without a win since October 2023 and has finished soundly beaten in Class 5 handicaps on her last two starts; however, before those she went close in one at Chepstow in May and if rediscovering that form she'll be very tough to beat now dropped into a classified.
