9st 8lb |
Ran okay at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) in June but he's not been at the same level on his last two starts; down in the weights but drawn widest and others are more appealing. |

4th Aug 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Has won only once and has missed a couple of chunks of his career in recent times; lacked consistency this summer, latterly when finishing last (well behind two of today's rivals) over C&D a fortnight ago. |

1-28; seen only four times since winning on stable debut at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) in August 2023; well positioned when beaten 1l over C&D (good to firm) 24 days ago; can be involved. |

Showed some ability on his second start but his most recent effort at Kempton last November (handicap debut) suggested he will need some improvement to defy this 2lb lower mark; wears a first-time hood. |

Won at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta) last October and now 2lb lower; however, he hasn't been at the same level on either outing this year and needs to raise his game; just one win from his last 17 starts. |

23rd Feb 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

1lb lower than when gaining his fourth C&D success in October, but out of the frame in three starts since; well backed last time, though, so interesting to see if the money comes for him again now returned here. |

String of good runs on turf and AW last season and there were feasible excuses for his last two defeats (drawn wide/raced close to a strong pace); handicapped to be competitive. |

Veteran who scored over C&D in October, but she's not easy to predict and was 6l behind Nordic Glory here ten days ago; needs to bounce back again after that disappointing run and others are more persuasive. |

Well short of her best last season and she made a low-key start for her new stable at Lingfield 11 weeks ago (7f, AW; 150-1); too much to prove for comfort. |

Course winner over 5f on heavy ground in September and she has also won on good to firm; ended last season out of sorts and she was well held on her return at Leicester (6f, good) 16 days ago; hood is removed and tongue-tie is applied; bit to prove. |

Turf wins have come on stiff tracks, at 6f and 5f; had another good season in 2025 but it ended quietly in the autumn and she now has a hood refitted for the first time in over two years; has a bit to prove. |

Well beaten in a handicap on reappearance in May, before winning a Thirsk seller (6f, good to firm) next time; left Kevin Ryan after being well beaten in a Pontefract handicap next time and was last of seven in a Wolverhampton claimer latest; handy mark if she can be revived. |

Didn't progress for the Johnstons and she struggled for new yard last year including a heavy defeat on her final start in September; losing run is now up to 14 and has plenty to prove upped to this trip on her return; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |
