High-mileage veteran who looked out of sorts on his final two appearances in 2024; too well handicapped to rule out but younger rivals appeal more; blinkers refitted.

Form & Verdict
Very lightly raced 8yo; struggled in first two handicaps (hurdle/chase) and never really looked dangerous before keeping on for modest third at Hereford (2m, good) last month, but is effectively 8lb lower here and the move back up in trip may enable further progress.

Point winner; 0-12 under rules but he has had only two starts for this stable and showed welcome signs of a revival when third of seven at Market Rasen 25 days ago (2m3f, good to soft; first-time blinkers, retained); up in trip today and he enters calculations.

Form & Verdict
Seemed to have quite a bit left in the tank when opening account under confident Rex Dingle ride at Plumpton (2m1f, good) on Monday, her third start for Anthony Honeyball; will have a 7lb penalty to carry if she makes a quick reappearance here but will be fine over the longer trip; good chance.

J: Rex Dingle

T: Anthony Honeyball

Everything fell into place for Plumpton win (2m1f, good) in February but she's not the easiest to win with and her finishing effort was weak there last time (2m3f); the blinkers tried then are soon discarded and the likelihood of a strong pace up front should benefit her; being 12lb out of the handicap makes life difficult.
