Form & Verdict
A fairly useful 7f winner at his best; gambled on for his new yard and and shaped well when second of 11 in 7f Chelmsford handicap 26 days ago, just edged out having been set plenty to do; up 3lb but he can make amends with cheekpieces refitted.

Wide-margin turf win in April flanked by two AW defeats as favourite; perhaps the return to turf will help but he is creeping back up the weights.

J: William Carson

Began his 3yo campaign with a BHA mark of 93; a lot of water has flowed under the bridge since but he has bounced back to form for Adam Kirby, finishing second at Chelmsford in March (7f) before an easy win at Yarmouth ten days ago (6f, good to firm); 3lb well in under a penalty; obvious chance.

Scored at Chelmsford (6f) in December and not so bad as his recent form figures suggests, challenging wide when ninth in 6f Southwell handicap last month; this C&D winner is not out of things.

T: Jessica Macey

Eight-time AW winner but he's 1-21 on turf; placed a couple of times this season, including over C&D (good to firm) in April, but he's not easy to predict and was out the back at Doncaster last time; has another switch of headgear and he comes with risks attached.

He has a much better strike-rate on AW than turf and was well beaten over C&D last time; however, prior to that he was second of six at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) and is not written off today.

Took 17 attempts to get off the mark but now on a four-timer after wins at Leicester (twice) and Nottingham in recent months (all 6f on good/good to firm); only up another 2lb and merits plenty of respect in his current mood.

Off the mark at the 17th attempt when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month and followed up when ridden by Chrstian Howarth over that same C&D 12 days ago, making all; he did it well last time and 9lb rise may not stop a bold bid for the hat-trick.

Second in this race last year off a 2lb lower mark; yard has been struggling for winners, while some rain would have been optimal, but she does like it here and should fare better than when favourite at Kempton early last week.

Her win came over 6f on slow turf but she has run well over C&D in the past and this return to AW could be beneficial; others appeal more for win purposes though.

Last win was at Newmarket in May 2025 off 11lb higher; only sixth of eight at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago when 6-4 favourite; steps back up in trip and is so well handicapped on old form that he must be considered.
