Form & Verdict
All three AW wins have come on Tapeta, the latest a short-head success at Southwell (1m) last time, but he has run well in both starts on Polytrack; only seems to do as much as is necessary (none of his six wins has been by more than half a length) so a 3lb rise may not preclude another big run.

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.

Patchy form in 11 starts since winning over C&D in March 2022, though he has gone close a couple of times back here in the meantime as when beaten a nose and a neck into third of seven 11 days ago; each-way claims from the same mark if reproducing that performance.
