J: P J McDonald

T: James Tate

Talented on AW and had more in hand than the narrow winning margin suggests when arriving late on the scene at Wolverhampton (about 1m) in November; was carried out of his ground when starting a forward move over C&D (good to firm) recently and has to be of interest in this lower grade.

J: Dylan Hogan

T: James Tate

Has looked quirky on occasions but he produced a decidedly useful effort when coming with a strong run to get up late in 8.6f Wolverhampton handicap in November; matched that form when a close third there on reappearance six weeks ago; won a fast-ground novice on turf last year (also second here on debut); one of two solid contenders for James Tate.

Second of 14 off 1lb higher behind Thunder Roar at Ayr (1m) last September on his favoured soft ground, and didn't run badly when 4l 11th of 21 in the Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) on his reappearance; however, others have more compelling credentials.

Versatile sort who has won four times at up to 1m but his last success was in August 2024; reappeared with a close third off 2lb higher at Redcar (1m, good to firm) in April but he's not easy to predict and was tailed off at Thirsk three weeks ago; yard also runs Akkadian Thunder.

Has course form; ran with great credit in stronger races than this as a 4yo when three wins included one in the Shergar Cup (first run at 1m, good to firm; acts on good to soft) at Ascot; he wasn't the same horse in either of his two runs last year but fared much better when a close third at Redcar last month; major player.

Tailed off on last month's reappearance in the Spring Mile at Doncaster but may have needed the run and those ridden more patiently came to the fore; he won three times last year (1m1f/1m, soft/good) and it will be no surprise if he leaves that latest performance miles behind.

Placed in May/June in his first two handicaps (1m/1m1f, good to firm/good) and he's of interest on that form; two lesser runs have followed (1m2f, good to firm/soft) and he has something to prove, but this 3yo remains lightly raced and is in top hands; not written off.

J: Warren Fentiman

Has looked a bit quirky but his close second at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) in June shows he's capable off this sort of mark; never a threat on quicker ground at the Newmarket July meeting but it was a hot 3yo only handicap; returns from two months off, minus the blinkers he's worn on last two starts and with his yard in excellent form; going softer than good would be an unknown but there's still a feeling he might have a bigger performance in him.

Prominent-racer who won twice during last season's 3yo campaign (1m, good to soft/good to firm) and returned to form when third at Redcar (1m, good) last Thursday on his second start of the season; it's possible this new trip will be within range and he has an each-way shout if seeing it out.

This C&D brought out the best in him last season, with two wins in the summer (good to soft/good to firm) and a close third of 13 in the autumn; faded as if needing his reappearance back here 17 days ago and ought to be sharper now.
