31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Yet to win this year but he has run several good races in defeat at this trip; the bulk of his racing has been on good ground or quicker so underfoot conditions could be troublesome. |

Beaten on his last 15 starts but placed over 1m4f/1m2f in three of his five races this term; has the form for another prominent finish and is claimer ridden for the first time. |

26th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won 1m Yarmouth novice on good to soft last September; no real evidence he's ahead of his mark this year, despite a somewhat luckless AW run behind Botas (1m) in August; however, his finishing hasn't been that strong over the trip on turf and AW since and looks up against it. |
12/1 |

3rd 3 (10) |
18th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Yarmouth novice winner (1m, good to soft) a year ago and has run some good race since handicapping, especially since headgear went on; finished just behind King Cabo over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time blinkers), but may have finished ahead of that rival with a clear run; could be worth chancing. |

25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Yarmouth novice winner (1m, good to soft) last autumn and twice runner-up off similar marks in handicaps this summer; possible to forgive his latest effort on AW debut (first-time blinkers), but he could probably do with some rain back on turf. |

1st Jul 2023 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |

Has yet to build on his promising debut third at Newmarket last summer, taking a good hold in first-time blinkers and weakening to finish a well-held fifth in 1m4f Catterick maiden on his reappearance 37 days ago; visor the headgear of choice this time; still fairly early days but he needs to get his career back on track now handicapping. |

11th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won on soft ground this season over about 1m4f at Windsor in May and Chester in August; made the running when tailed off back at Chester (good to soft) on latest outing, albeit in Listed race; chance if bouncing straight back and new trip is plausible on best efforts. |
3/1 |

16th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 1 |
8st 7lb |
Proved suited by the return to a slower surface in C&D handicap (form has substance) six weeks ago, scoring comfortably and taking record on soft ground to 311; has a lot to find on ratings but chance would improve granted similar going; still unexposed. |
20/1 |

1st 3 (5) |
6th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 4 |

Did it well when making a successful return/handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f, soft) in May, but only third of seven at Goodwood (1m4f, good) the following month; still open to further progress and any further rain would be a plus; major chance. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive last year, with Listed win at York's Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm), and after reappearing with a Listed second at Goodwood (1m4f, good) she went one better in the Group 3 Bronte Cup at York (1m6f, good); vulnerable if Estrange is at the top of her game but she's the stand-out danger. |

Peak performance when impressive winner of Listed race at the York Ebor meeting (1m4f, good to firm) last August but she ran respectably in 14.5f Group 2 next time and when second in a 1m4f Listed race (ahead of Sueno and Allonsy) on reappearance; one of the top contenders on form. |

Unraced here but all five wins have come on the AW and he's fine on Tapeta; hasn't been getting the breaks in his recent races and one to consider, for all that he's not shone when previously tried in cheekpieces. |

All of his five wins have been on AW and latest was off this mark over C&D last March; finished fifth in both runs for new yard this winter but he didn't get much luck on the first occasion and was beaten less than 3l at Lingfield last time; could be dangerous if he can find something extra. |

Record of 7-20 on AW and 2-3 since wearing visor; midfield in notable handicap at Lingfield (1m2f) most recently, shaping as if this return to further is worth exploring; could go well in the retained headgear. |

2-2 since visored, following a 1m2f Chelmsford win with a ready success at Wolverhampton last month (9.5f); up 4lb and drawn widest so she will need to produce another personal best to complete her hat-trick. |

Five turf wins but has done most of his winning on the AW; surprising to see blinkers back on having won in a visor at Chester last month and then beaten only 4l in a Class 2 handicap at Goodwood; if that doesn't backfire then has possibilities. |

Verdict
A competitive handicap with a good few of the runners likely to improve this season. SCENIC can only benefit from this longer trip now handicapping and her final qualifying run looks good form, as the winner is promising and the third has since bolted up on his handicap debut. Alba Longa brings a similar profile and she’s feared most, while King’s Code and Spring Fever are fellow newcomers to handicaps who merit attention.[Alistair Jones]
