Down the field when making a quick return to the track at York recently but in peak form previously, showing better form with his wins at Beverley (5f, heavy) and on the AW than when slightly hampered against Thistle Nil over this C&D in August; respected.

All four wins have been on Tapeta including three at Newcastle (5f-7f); her last success was in July and she's run creditably here (5f) in both subsequent runs; usually comes from off the pace and she has possibilities on this step back up in trip.

T: Ray Craggs

Much better than this level in his prime; slow to come to hand back from a 615-day absence but his latest fourth (behind Invincible Crown) provided some evidence that he retains ability, weakening late having raced on the outside of the field; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend but could be primed for something bigger.

Quite useful in his prime; safely held all four starts since returning from long absence this year but looked unlucky not to finish closer to the target over C&D 16 days ago and continues to slide down the weights; worth a second look.

His last win was off 15lb higher in July 2025; threatened only once from seven starts this term, in a small field three runs ago, and soon got detached on last two outings, so others are readily preferred.
