Got back near her best when scoring over C&D last month but a 6lb rise found her out at Wolverhampton since; might be vulnerable again. |

22nd Dec 2023 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |

Got back near her best when scoring at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) two weeks ago but she's gone back up 6lb in the weights and this looks highly competitive on this step back up in grade; others are preferred. |

Has developed a habit of starting slowly, which is a concern, but her C&D defeat two weeks ago can be overlooked (repeatedly denied aclear run) and she's now 1lb lower than when second at Lingfield (7f) in October. |

Triple turf winner (1m2f) on fast and slow ground; got back on the scoresheet at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in March but he's not easy to predict and has been well held in last three runs; still 4lb higher than for his last win and he comes with risks attached back at this trip. |

Three course wins last summer, at 1m and 7f (all on good); not in quite the same form this year, despite finishing second of five to stablemate Monhammer over C&D in August, and it would have been encouraging to see her at least repeat that run back here since; has some work to do. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

22nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |

Looks interesting on his second at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) in November but he took backward steps on final two runs last year; overall record is now 1-19 and he's yet to be placed in seven runs on turf; has work to do on return. |

Ten-time course winner who made a bold bid when runner-up in a 20-runner handicap here (6f, good) 16 days ago; up 3lb but he still looks on a workable mark and is respected back in trip; has won on good to firm and good to soft. |

Last win came in France in 2022 but running well of late, including at this venue in race that wasn't run to suit on Tuesday; should go well back in trip if there's a gallop on. |

Four wins at Newcastle when trained in Britain and won over this trip at Down Royal last summer; two low-key runs on first two runs for this yard but showed more when sixth of 19 at Navan last time; on a good mark if he can build on that. |
