Form & Verdict
A win and a near-miss to his name in two runs here; now 7lb lower than when winning last spring but he's struggled this season, including without the trademark cheekpieces last time; needs a revival but the drop back from 6f should help.

Back to winning ways in a five-runner handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) five weeks ago; this is more competitive but he has been rated much higher in the past.

Form & Verdict
Prolific winner down the years, including over C&D last summer, who's regressed sharply in recent times; a few years since she ran at this low a level and that should help, but it will largely hinge on how she responds to wearing headgear for the first time.

A four-time 5f scorer in 2025; yet to add to that this season and cheekpieces are tried having beaten just two in 5f Newcastle handicap 12 days ago.

J: Matthew Lloyd Slater

T: Adrian Nicholls

Four-time course winner, most recently off a 15lb higher mark last August; has mostly struggled since but she was sparked up by first-time blinkers when beaten a neck at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) eight days ago; has to be respected off the same mark.

Form & Verdict
Sharply regressive for Tom Ward this season, coming a stone down the weights; goes in first-time headgear for her new yard, back from a short break, and is worth tracking in the market.
