Form & Verdict
Third in novice events last autumn on good to soft at Chester (7f) and Goodwood (1m1f); bred for further than this but he ran badly out of steam when making the running at Ascot (1m2f, soft) four weeks ago on handicap/seasonal debut; now wears cheekpieces and back down in trip; much too early to dismiss him.

Second at this meeting in 2024 but only eighth in this race last year; had an excellent autumn on AW and won again in January, but he's struggled to make an impact in recent AW starts and his record is a lot stronger at up to 1m3f than at about 1m4f.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: David Evans

He's never won off a mark this high and he needs to produce more than he's managed at Kempton and Lingfield on his last three starts; however, before those he won a 13-runner handicap over C&D with something to spare and the return to Newcastle could be in his favour; not ruled out each-way.

Form & Verdict
Never far away in AW handicaps in December-April, nearly all under Tyrese Cameron from the front; handicapped on that but turf form is way below that level, albeit with his tailed-off last of six when returned to turf at Doncaster six weeks ago taking place over 1m2f on soft; today's trip/ground might be more suitable.

4lb lower than when winning at Wolverhampton last November; 2025 has been a struggle but he's eligible for this lowly level as a result and today is the first time he hasn't been apprentice-ridden in over two years; risky but not impossible.

Decent record over C&D (13022; all in 2023) but has become very hard to predict; given a seven-week break since a poor effort at Chepstow and others are more reliable.

Form & Verdict
Well related, albeit with her sire a sprinter and dam a stayer; given wind surgery after below form on final 2yo start; 14-1, good third of 13 on seasonal/handicap debut at Leicester (1m, good to firm) 11 days ago, from well off the pace; better chance to settle in a larger field but otherwise should go well.

Well suited by this C&D but seems to have lost her way since last summer's turf win and was particularly disappointing on her latest outing 16 days ago; needs a good boost from the first-time blinkers.
