Half-brother to four winners and he's out of German 7f Listed winner; well held at biggish prices in three AW novice events (7f/1m) during the winter but he's been gelded since and could show a lot more now switched to a handicap on his return; needs a close look.

Hinted at ability, without landing a blow, in maidens at Brighton (7f) and Chelmsford (1m2f, AW); may improve for those two experiences and post a bigger effort in this weaker-looking field.

Broadly progressive record on turf for current yard features good-ground wins at Chester (7.5f) and Pontefract (1m) last June; may still have more to offer and remains of interest, despite an absence since July; market confidence would cement her claims.

Turned things around after break when scoring over C&D last month and she followed up at Pontefract (1m, good) nine days later; held in hat-trick bid at Pontefract last week but she travelled for a long way and found more progress with that creditable second; only 1lb higher here and she's strongly respected back at this track.

On a hat-trick after wins at Chester (7.5f) and when making all over C&D (also good) within nine days last month; up a total of 10lb but she's in career-best form and drawn to attack; big player.

Form & Verdict
Holds leading claims on the pick of last year's form for Henry Candy; far from solid on 2023 handicap efforts (1m-1m4f) for new stable and record is now 0-10; however, could well show some sort of a revival in this uncompetitive maiden event.

Just one win from 35 starts and he finished eighth of nine in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; remains unexposed over this trip but he's hard to predict and others are more convincing.

Record of 1-34 but his win was at Ffos Las last summer and he returned from a break with an encouraging fifth here (8.6f classified) last month; should benefit from that run and he could be dangerous back up in trip.

Runner-up on Lingfield debut (7f, good to firm) in June 2023 but she's had only five runs since and has struggled in all of them; now drops into a classified event but she finished a 12l tenth on AW in her two runs in the autumn and has lots to prove.
