Form & Verdict
Useful sprinting pedigree but he's gone off at triple-figure prices for both 6f starts and been beaten about 10l each time; drops to 5f with plenty to find and will be bearing down on ordinary handicaps soon.

Won a C&D handicap (good) in June but has not really gone on from that and he's finished down the field in his last three runs; overall record is now 1-14 and he has some work to do in this competitive race.

Won at Redcar (6f, good) in June but has mixed record since and he was well held at Catterick last week; comes with risks attached and he probably needs to kick on again to defy this mark; one to two runners for yard.

15-race maiden but was placed four times from 7f-1m3f on turf this summer; left Geoff Harker after finishing down the field over the extended 1m4f here three weeks ago; new trainer (same owners) is quick to drop him back markedly in trip; has more good recent efforts to his name than most of these.

13-race maiden but he was in the frame in both starts here (6f nurseries) when trained by Nigel Tinkler last year; his third behind Farabove The Limit at Carlisle (1m3f, good) last month was the last of a sequence of solid efforts but he threw in a clunker when beating one home at Redcar last time; blinkers go on.

Can lead; beaten favourite on last three outings but he's run to a useful level in all his 5f starts on good and good to firm ground (in cheekpieces latest, retained) and has strong form claims again today.

Minor promise when fifth of nine on Lingfield debut (5f) in June and at 14-1 he wasn't one of the outsiders for a valuable sales race at Newmarket (6f) last month, never near the leaders but still looked to have some potential; may well fare a lot better in an easier race.

Firmly on the up for his new stable, making all at Catterick before narrowly denied by Rotokura Belle over C&D; back to winning ways with a Newcastle success 15 days ago (much more convincing than the neck margin might suggest); up 6lb in a better race but he's a speedy and progressive 3yo who commands major respect.

Has a fairly precocious pedigree but he ran green on his Carlisle debut (6f; 12-1) and was never seen with a chance; needs a sizeable step forward to have any chance and handicaps might already be the aim.

Front-runner who won at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) late last year and scored twice over this trip on turf in the spring, but a 5lb rise seemed to find him out in his hat-trick bid at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) last time; off 99 days since and will need to hit the ground running on Polytrack debut.

Ended 2025 with a pair of Class 6 wins on AW (7f/6f); his progress has continued back on turf, making all in 6f handicaps at Redcar and Doncaster; another 5lb higher today and also steps up into a Class 4 but he is still more appealing than many.

Promising start when runner-up to a much more experienced rival at Beverley (5f, good to firm), keeping on nicely, but he pulled hard when upped to 6f at Hamilton last month and others found more late on; the return to 5f can suit and he shouldn't be far away.

The form of her debut fourth of seven at York (5f, good to firm; 20-1) has worked out and she might have found the stiff finish at Hamilton against her next time, albeit behind a useful rival; might be better off on this track but improvement needed.

Could only manage fourth of eight on her 5f Redcar handicap debut (good) in October but the fact she went off the 13-8 favourite suggests better was anticipated; remains unexposed and it'll be interesting to see if there's money for her again back from six months off.
