Scored over C&D in October but he's gone off the boil, coming in last of nine in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 23 days ago; cheekpieces replace blinkers and he has plenty to prove. |

Losing run is mounting up but she ran respectably at Carlisle most recently; form over C&D comprises a ready win (off 2lb higher) in this contest two years ago and creditable third (off 7lb higher) last August; good chance back here. |

2-3 on turf, winning a Nottingham maiden by 9l in May last year (6f, soft) and a 7f handicap at Ayr in April (good); poor run when favourite at Catterick last time (7f, soft; never travelling); needs to bounce back. |

Soft-ground maiden winner who returned to form with narrow win at Ayr (7f, good) last month; it was a tight finish but she's just 2lb higher today and this lightly raced 4yo could have more to offer. |

Below par the last twice but those were over 6f, and fast ground may not have suited last time; ran well in defeat twice in a row over today's C&D (good) in July and could bounce back to form now back up in trip. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Continues to tumble down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting in a first-time tongue-tie, but he's been well beaten on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is required. |

11th 8 (5) |
11th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Gained both wins over C&D but seems badly to have lost his way since his dead-heat here last June; well-beaten 50-1 shot on both appearances this year; considered only if much stronger in the betting today. |

Both wins at Ripon (1m, good to firm), the latest from 5lb higher last summer; hasn't beaten many in his last four starts including on his recent Thirsk reappearance; best watched for now. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Excels over C&D, only once out of the frame in 14 runs and his fourth win coming on latest start here (good), when making all from Indefensible; still well treated and can go well in the bid to repeat his 2024 win. |

30th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |

13 starts here have yielded three wins and eight places, albeit the latest success came nearly two years ago; arrives in form after a string of solid efforts and he's likely to make his presence felt again. |

Getting on for nearly two years since his last win but running well of late, reaching the frame for the fourth time in his last five starts when fourth of ten at Musselburgh (7f, good) last Saturday; should be thereabouts again. |

Largely consistent on AW since rejoining this stable; has frame possibilities, provided he continues in the same vein, but doesn't look the likeliest winner; 0-19 on turf. |

8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 195y Class 6 |

Handy sort who is 1-1 here and ran well returned to turf when beaten a short head and a neck into third of eight at Hamilton (1m, good) a fortnight ago; ground faster than good probably not ideal, though. |

Course scorer who has a solid record on going softer than good; below par in the spring when last seen but has a good mark to work with back from a break (gone well fresh before); considered. |

No AW win since March 2024; respectable showings, behind in-form rivals, over a range of trips (6f-1m) recently, without doing enough to suggest that she's primed to strike; drop back to 7f is helpful and she might have place possibilities; one of two for Iain Jardine. |

Won six times from seven starts between March and May last year, but losing run up to 22 and well held back with her former trainer at Newcastle (6f, AW; well backed) this month; enough to prove. |

Verdict
This looks a strong race of its type with several handicappers of interest on show. Pallas Lord, winner of this race two years ago, has been carrying all before him at Newcastle this winter and he’s high on the list, while Ey Up Its Jazz is respected with a recent run behind him. The two standout contenders look to be Albeseeingyer, who is still some way from reaching the ceiling of her ability, and GENTLE ELLEN (nap), with preference for the Barron-trained mare. She won twice over 6f last season but it was her final outing, when second over C&D to a rival who is now rated 16lb higher (pair 5l clear of the third), that makes her of major interest up just 2lb.[Paul Smith]
