Managed to get away on terms for the first time when springing a surprise on third start, over 5f at Hamilton, but was back to her old ways next time and there is no guarantee she will fare better on AW debut.

His losing sequence goes back 16 races to May 2024 and his form has gone the wrong way; however, he's dropped to a dangerous mark and ran respectably when fifth of nine over 7f at Ayr a fortnight ago (11-8 favourite), when shaping as though the return to 6f may help; not ruled out.

Went off the boil towards the end of last season and also below his best on last month's reappearance at Musselburgh, taking his losing sequence to 15; however, this two-time C&D winner may have needed that latest outing and he's well handicapped on last year's best course form; not ruled out.

Pulled hard on her debut but improved on that form when winning 15-runner race at Thirsk (6f, good; 7-1) next time, just holding on after going clear; dropping to 5f should be no inconvenience and she's open to further progress after two months off; big chance under a penalty.

Encouraging fifth of 13 over C&D (good to firm) last month on second start back from a long absence; this lightly raced 4yo may be able to build on that latest run provided conditions suit (unproven on slow ground).
