Form & Verdict
Inexperience evident when third of ten at 6-1 at Catterick (7f, good) last October on sole run for Ed Walker; a leading contender if tapping into that promise on this stable and seasonal debut; from a family his new trainer has done very well with.

Made all in maiden and novice events at about 7f (good to soft and good) in June but his handicap career hasn't got off the ground in three attempts since; dropping down the weights but has it to prove.

Won at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) in June on second start and again did it easily in a novice at Chester (7.5f, good) later that month; disappointing in his first two handicaps but this 3yo shouldn't be discounted in view of his significant previous promise.

Easy wins in a 7f maiden (good to soft) and C&D novice (good); made favourite for handicap debut at Musselburgh and perhaps went off a bit quick; better can be expected.

Form & Verdict
0-6 and disappointing in handicaps on both starts this season (7f/6f, good to firm/good); however, she was runner-up in a nursery at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last September and it's possible the return to slow ground will trigger a revival; he's a player if so.

3yo who won over C&D (soft) in June and good ground may not have suited when down the field over C&D last month; conditions are very much in his favour this afternoon and he's high on the list.

Nearly made a successful switch to handicaps at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) last September, just held by one who won three of his next five starts; had a quiet start to 2026 but did better when prominently ridden and having a little in hand against Milford Grange over C&D (soft) in June; up 3lb; capable of better.

Promising fourth on debut at Kempton (1m, AW) last October; failed to back that up at Lingfield (1m, AW) in December and absent since; however, she may be able to bounce back with a bold show following a break.
