Southwell winner over this trip for Roger Varian last January; last of ten on same track last time (6f) but really well handicapped now and could bounce back for in-form yard after a break. |

22nd Apr 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Well short of her best last season and she made a low-key start for her new stable at Lingfield 11 weeks ago (7f, AW; 150-1); too much to prove for comfort. |

1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well suited by conditions; made a promising stable debut 14 days ago, forcing Em Four to pull out all the stops, and that was after a 702-day absence; has to back it up but he will be a danger to all if he does. |
6/1 |

18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

This is his first run since April 2024 and it remains to be seen how much ability he retains; however, the handicapper has given this two-time C&D winner a chance, and he's not ruled out on his first run for John Ryan (has left John Butler); watch the betting. |

18th Nov 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Her midfield finish over 6f at Kempton last month wasn't too bad and she was drawn wide back there 17 days ago; still a maiden and profile is patchy, but not discounted at big odds. |
50/1 |

10th 9 (12) |
1st Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

12-race maiden; her overall record is patchy but her recent midfield finish over C&D wasn't too bad a run; wide draw could be enough to scupper her this time. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ended 2025 with two placed efforts on AW and he lines up here off a 6lb lower mark than when second at Newcastle in December; that is a result of four lesser efforts though and he now has a point to prove. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Close third over C&D in November off 3lb higher but he's finished down the field in his last three starts and his last win was over two years ago; others preferred. |

24th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

No win since February 2024; caught late by Latin Five (who, when factoring in riding arrangements, is now 6lb worse off) over C&D three starts back; less competitive at Southwell (6f) and Wolverhampton since; must bounce back. |

Verdict
Brazen Idol, who still appeals as being ahead of his mark, was reportedly unsuited by soft earlier in the season. Social Contact and Juanita (still second choice) are other form principals who have something to prove on slower than good and perhaps the reliable WHISTLEDOWN (nap) can prove the answer back down in distance.[Paul Smith]
