J: Billy Loughnane

T: James Owen

Has done well over 1m4f-1m6f on turf this term, winning three times from six starts; latest win came easily at this track (1m6f, good to firm) in June and he's 7lb higher today; tailing off so badly at Southwell four weeks ago may be offputting but he came last in 2025 in his only other AW race, so perhaps can spring back to life with today's return to turf.

Form & Verdict
A rising force who is 3-5 on AW overall and won 1m3f/1m4f handicaps at Kempton on her two starts this season; both were by a neck and, despite her pedigree, she now looks worth a go at 1m6f after the good scrap last time; up 5lb but turf debut may ask the bigger question.

Kept to AW for her first five starts and she won three of them, including handicaps at Kempton over this sort of trip in the spring; weak in the market when beaten 7l into second on her turf debut at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) three weeks ago but maybe this drop back down in trip can assist.

11.6f and 1m6f handicap winner last year for the Gosdens; soundly beaten on both attempts over hurdles for new yard but fourth of nine at 33-1 back on the Flat at Chester (2m) three weeks ago was much more like it; needs to build on that.

Won 11.6f and 1m6f handicaps last year for the Gosden yard; two heavy defeats over hurdles to start off with for current one but he was a 5l fourth of nine over 2m here in May and he was held up in a small field when never threatening at Newmarket last time (1m6f); back here, on a realistic mark, he could feature.

Usually apprentice ridden but Jude Fernandes rides him for the first time; 6lb lower than when winning at Sandown (1m6f, good to firm) last June; he has not beaten many in his four starts this season, coming last in a four-runner race last time, but can't be dismissed and the hood he often wore last term (and first run this year) is reinstated.

Useful, having shown best hurdles form with Grade 2 novice win; not in same league as Constitution Hill in that sphere and duly proved no threat to that rival at Southwell on Flat debut, finishing midfield; bagged a silver medal there (1m3f) since, however, and again has place claims.
