Form & Verdict
0-12 when trained by Laura Horsfall (both codes) but he caught the eye with a strong finish after being hampered at an early stage when runner-up under Richard Kingscote at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) on stable/seasonal debut 16 days ago; drops back to a mile and looks a leading contender.

Off the boil since finishing second off a 4lb higher mark over C&D in February but he's been running in sprints latterly; this is easier than he's used to and he ought to fare much better back from a short break.

Bounced back to form to open account with clearcut 7f win here last month, her tenth start; it's hard to predict whether she'll build on that success but a 4lb rise does not seem excessive and she should be okay back at 1m.

Form & Verdict
All six wins have been on AW (1m-1m2f); had to wait for a run when second of 11 over C&D in March but failed to beat a rival home over 1m2f at Lingfield on her next start (found to have had an irregular heartbeat); off since and it would be no surprise if she ran well, though she does need things to drop right.

Showed little in two starts here over 7f for John Gallagher and she was down the field on stable debut at Kempton (7f, AW) 22 days ago after a wind operation; that was her first start for 433 days so may well come on for that and now steps up to 1m on handicap debut in a first-time tongue tie.
