5th 3 (2) |
1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Seven starts on the AW including a narrow success at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in January, but has not matched that form in two outings in headgear since; enough to prove on turf debut. |
10/1 |

4th 3 (1) |
25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
First run beyond sprint trips when winning an ordinary, small-field Wolverhampton handicap (8.6f) in January; met traffic upped to 9.5f latest (first-time cheekpieces; switches to a visor here) and can't be ruled out under experienced 5lb claimer Ashley Lewis. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Soundly beaten in both handicaps, more recently when last of nine at Bath (1m2f, firm; Lucky Sevens finished second) this month; bred to be suited by this longer trip but needs significant improvement. |
20/1 |

9th 2 (9) |
13th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Debut (7f on Chelmsford AW) has seemingly been better than what's followed; only fifth of six on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, AW; 10-1) last time but there's stamina on the dam's side. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Tailed off with cheekpieces enlisted for nursery debut last August but visored for a close fourth of five at Chepstow (1m, soft; made most) the following month; gelded since; the dam won at up to 1m2f and this seasonal debutant needs a second look. |

Betting Forcast
7/1 My Champion, 7/2 Timely Salute, 8/1 Us Officer, 10/1 Hearts To Heaven, 1/2 High Aura
Verdict
This looks a weaker race than the one at Stratford in which HIGH AURA finished third after being pestered at the head of affairs. The three with Flat experience were decidedly moderate in that scene, though Timely Salute did at least run one of his better races last time out.[Alistair Jones]
