Form & Verdict
Dropped a long way down the weights last year and is patently not as good as he once was but bettered his low-key seasonal/stable debut when third at Carlisle (1m3f, good; well backed) on Thursday and today's move back up in trip ought to be in his favour.

Five-time turf winner who went close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in February when last seen; not discounted but it's possible this 8yo will improve for this first run since; question mark about slow ground nowadays.

Conditions shouldn't be an excuse and this trip is more suitable than the 1m he tackled at Newcastle last month; however, he finished down the field when back up to 1m4f here last night.

Ended a long losing sequence when winning at Ayr (1m7f, soft) last month and she followed up there (1m5f, heavy) a fortnight ago; also effective elsewhere and this in-form mare could play another leading role.

J: Amie Waugh

Ended a losing run going back to September 2022 when winning here (1m7f, soft) last Tuesday; her profile suggests her credentials for following up are questionable, but she had 3l to spare last week and a 4lb penalty may not stop her if she can reproduce that form.

Form & Verdict
Won over hurdles in January but pulled up three consecutive times this spring and now reverts to the Flat; has quite a bit to prove at present and may not be ideally suited by today's fast ground; swaps usual cheekpieces for first-time blinkers.
