Made all over C&D in June and runner-up on his next two starts; below his best last time at Ayr but a revival would come as no surprise.

Form & Verdict
Can lead; all three 5f wins on good to soft or slower; two creditable efforts on good ground this year but chance much improved by the recent rain and has dropped below his latest winning mark; in contention.

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.

Form & Verdict
Added two 5f races in 2024, on good to soft and soft, both off higher marks than today's; hasn't been in quite the same form this year but he's had wind surgery since last seen in April and a tongue-tie is refitted (three wins in one); might just need this but has form claims.

Acts on good to firm and soft; nine-time winner who scored by 4l at Catterick two weeks ago but was disappointing under a penalty there last Wednesday; up another 4lb, but he was as good as ever on his penultimate run and is a player if he can recapture that form.

Failed to beat a rival home at Thirsk (5f, good) but he's won over this C&D either side of that, including when coming 4l clear nine days ago; looks well treated under a 4lb penalty but this is a step up in class.

Form & Verdict
Making up into a useful sprinter for this yard, her winning run interrupted only by an up-and-comer at Hamilton (5f, good) last month; she still looked ahead of her mark when winning cosily over 6f here since; a further 5lb rise raises less of a query than if the ground is slower than good; yard has won two of the last three runnings.

Unproven on ground slower than good to soft; five-time winner (5f/6f), the most recent win at Musselburgh in April off a 10lb lower mark than today's; second in each of her last five starts, including when ahead of a few of today's rivals at Goodwood (6f, good) two starts back, but now tries 7f for the first time off a career-high mark.

Four wins, including over C&D last season; won off 4lb lower over C&D again in April (good) but has finished second five times since, last week going down by a neck in a 6f fillies' handicap at Goodwood (good); 5lb well in; interesting contender.

Form & Verdict
Four 5f wins in 2024, on ground ranging from good to heavy; big prices and some way below her best all starts in 2025; needs a serious turnaround if she's to play a part against in-form rivals.

Effective on fast ground but all five wins have been on good or slower including three over C&D; 0-10 this season but he travelled well for a long way when third off this reduced mark at Hamilton ten days ago; usually races prominently and he could make another bold bid back at this track.
