Form & Verdict
Looks exposed already, beaten in four nurseries (5f-7f); the addition of a visor isn't enough to tip things in his favour.

Enjoyed a fine spell on AW during the winter, winning four consecutive handicaps at 6f across January and February; came back to form when returned to 6f with third of 14 at Windsor (good to firm) on Saturday; same mark (due to go up 2lb) and this is less competitive.

Enjoyed a fine spell on AW during the winter, winning four consecutive handicaps at 6f across January and February; good effort when second in Class 2 at Lingfield (AW; 50-1) on his next start at that trip but hasn't been at his best over shorter in two turf handicaps this spring; still not totally ruled out back at 6f.

Often front-runner and won four times on the AW over 6f this winter; gave it a good go from the front at Lingfield on Good Friday before weakening into sixth, but he was well beaten at Bath (5.5f, good) 26 days ago; needs to bounce back.

Form & Verdict
Prominent racer who has shown more than enough in her nursery runs to think she can find a similar race; neither trip nor ground should be an issue and the new cheekpieces could be the catalyst for more.

Ten-race maiden but she has finished second on four occasions, including her seasonal return four weeks ago (6f, good to firm; handles soft); runs off the same mark and holds each-way claims once again.

Safely held in both nurseries in October, latterly when third of five at Catterick (6f, soft), and needs to have made some progress during 202-day layoff; cheekpieces removed after one use.

2 yo Filly

OR: 55

Form & Verdict
Promise over 5f here on second start and was a creditable third at Redcar since on her second nursery run (5f, good; hooded first time); may do better over 6f but was well held in her one run on ground slower than good.

Hasn't run up to her best on her two runs this year, latest on the AW, having shaped with a degree of promise in a couple of nurseries last October; tongue-tie now tried; well drawn.

Form & Verdict
Just modest form in three runs in novice/maiden company, running his best race on soft ground at Beverley on his second start; pedigree suggests he will do better at some point.
