Form & Verdict
Won his first three starts for this yard, all over 6f on good or quicker (one over C&D); now 1lb lower than for his fine third in the Ayr Gold Cup and his two defeats this season are easy to account for (7f formerly and then ground too slow latest); type to pop up soon but not guaranteed that this will be run to suit.

9st 6lb

J: Harry Davies

T: Michael Appleby

Ended a lengthy losing run at Newcastle in March and added to his tally with a Thirsk win last month (6f, good); better form when a close third in a Class 3 at Newbury three weeks ago and a 1lb rise is manageable; conditions won't be an issue having finished third in a Wokingham in his prime; high on the list.

He had dropped a long way in the weights prior to popping up at Newcastle (5f) last month; ran well at Doncaster ten days later and back on the scoresheet with a Thirsk win last week (6f, good); won that apprentice race (no penalty today) last time with more authority than the winning margin might suggest but he is up in class today.

Form & Verdict
Looked good when winning a good fillies' handicap at Salisbury last September (6f, good to firm) and she recorded a better RPR when second at Pontefract two weeks later; only midfield in a Listed event when last seen in October; could well have more to come this year but she's conceding race fitness to some useful sprinters.

Last season she won over 7f on the AW and at 6f on turf; her reappearance in a Nottingham handicap was up there with her best form but has struggled at Listed level since then; left the Crisfords for 42,000gns; looks up against it in the reapplied hood (usual tongue-tie missing).

7f (AW) and 6f (good to firm) wins at three and posted a career best on her reappearance when second in a 0-95 Nottingham handicap (6f, good to firm) in June; may be open to further improvement but has that to prove after being down the field in this grade at Chelmsford (7f, AW) six weeks ago.

Two wins last year (7f, AW and 6f, good to firm); career-best RPR when second of seven in a 6f handicap at Nottingham last month; return to 7f no problem and she's still relatively low mileage.

Looked good when coming from off the pace to win a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton in March; things haven't gone smoothly since and although he's well handicapped again, he might not find this being run to suit; cheekpieces and tongue-tie now both deployed (has worn both independently).
