9st 3lb |
Belied market weakness to get off the mark in first-time hood at Musselburgh (7f, soft; fifth start) in November; didn't match that form off this mark when sixth on nursery debut at Southwell (1m, AW) the following month; no hood for this return but any softening of the ground should be in her favour. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Progressed last season, culminating in a nursery win over 1m at Newcastle; gelded during the winter and his Ripon return was eye-catching; might be ready for this longer trip. |

9st 5lb |
He got better with each of his three runs in nurseries last autumn, winning comfortably at Newcastle (1m, AW) in November; gelded since; he needs to transfer his improvement back to turf but is bred to do better still and a 6lb rise might not stop him if he can continue the good work. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Shaped with promise on her debut at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last August but she wasn't able to build on that on her comeback run at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) 19 days ago; may come on for that but she'll need to. |
20/1 |

9st 2lb |
Sent off the 7-2 third favourite for her Salisbury debut (7f, good to firm) last August but she was unable to land a telling blow, beaten 4.5l into third at the finish; bred to do better at some point. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
Convincingly beaten when third on both outings this year (1m/1m2f, AW) and she's 0-8; however, she's run just twice on turf and the first occasion produced her career-best RPR, when going close at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last June; the other run on grass was on heavy going last July; the return to turf could be a major positive for this 3yo. |
14/1 |

3rd 2 (2) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
She isn't progressing but she is 10lb lower than for her only other handicap run and this trip should suit on pedigree; not a solid option but cannot be dismissed. |

1st May 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Not without hope in three 7f runs in the space of a few weeks last September, including here, since when she's undergone wind surgery; starts handicap life at a sensible level and the market should tell a tale for a yard also responsible for Project Kinsman. |
8/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |

Neither start this month has been without promise but she'll need a big step forward to shake up the principals. |

8th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Finished well when scoring at 16-1 on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m, AW) in December; never-dangerous fourth behind an emphatic winner at Redcar (1m, good to firm) last month but that was a creditable effort after a break and she still has potential; shortlisted. |

Betting Forcast
16/1 India Gold, 6/4 Ciao Capo, 10/1 Rogue Desire, 8/1 Stepanov, 8/1 Sovereign Bright, 8/1 Skirt Around, 5/1 Haltonwood, 7/1 Dalamara, 33/1 Riddikulus
Verdict
On the evidence of his recent win CIAO CAPO is the standout candidate here and a repeat of that effort would make him tough to beat. Haltonwood can perhaps be more effective now upped in trip and could emerge as next best, with Dalamara another for the shortlist.[Jonathan Doidge]
