10st 11lb |
Four wins came on turf later in the year and made it 0-16 on the AW when tailed off over 1m6f here five weeks ago; on a career-low mark now but it's hard to find any other positives. |

0-15 on AW but not beaten far when seventh of 13 on comeback run here (1m3f) 16 days ago; steps back up in trip and down to a career-low mark so not out of this. |

Triple turf winner (1m2f) on fast and slow ground; got back on the scoresheet at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in March but he's not easy to predict and has been well held in last three runs; still 4lb higher than for his last win and he comes with risks attached back at this trip. |

Two wins over 1m2f for Harry Eustace in 2022 (soft/good to soft); not shown a great deal for present yard (tailed off over 1m at Carlisle last time); blinkers replace cheekpieces; others appeal more. |

17th Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 137y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Has course form; yet to win but she ran some good races on AW for Alexandra Dunn, including when close up, after getting checked, behind a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in March; sold for 2,000gns in early June; worth a look for in-form new yard. |

Returned to form with 28-1 third over C&D last month but he failed to back that up at Newcastle last Saturday and is now 0-11 since his last win ten months ago; down the list. |

Multiple winner down the years, including three at this track; had a long spell on the sidelines prior to his return in August and he showed he retained ability when second at Southwell three weeks later; form dipped on turf last time but could get back on track here. |

6th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
12-race maiden who returned from one-year absence with two down-the-field handicap runs at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; drops in grade but still needs to up his game on this first start beyond 1m2f. |
9/1 |

18th Dec 2023 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |

0-11 and has just one piece of placed form; seemed to need his belated reappearance run two weeks ago but still lacks solid claims. |

Had a near miss in a classified event over C&D last August but she's not been in the same form in her last four starts and was beaten 9l back here (1m2f) last time; needs to raise her game. |
