Form & Verdict
Having only his second run for Gemma Tutty when winning smoothly under Rossa Ryan at Southwell (5f, AW) in December and he made a pleasing start to the new campaign when a close fourth to Knicks at Chester (5f, good; raced freely and short of room) last month; that should have put him spot-on for this; won't be inconvenienced by any rain; commands major respect.

Progressive last season when his two successes included the 3yo Dash on Derby day; missed the first half of this season and might have needed his first two runs back, never-dangerous fourth of ten at Haydock on latest; raced only at 5f but may now be ready for this step up in distance; still relatively low mileage and not ruled out.

Progressive for Gemma Tutty last season, winning the 3yo Dash on Derby day and posting a personal best when beating nine rivals in this contest (just 1lb higher today) 12 months ago; weak in the market and might have needed the run after over ten months off when only sixth of eight here on reappearance; big player if building on that.

Her three handicap wins have all come over C&D on good ground or slower; it was only a 0-88 that she won here on her reappearance in May but she fairly bolted up, easing her way into contention from well off the pace and skipping clear inside the final furlong; reverted to front-running in an Ayr Listed event last month but overdid things and dropped away late on; 11lb higher than for May's win but still a strong contender if the ground doesn't dry out too much.

Useful 5f turf form in 2025 but his season slowed down later in the year and he's been below best, despite the reduced mark, this term; 0-3 on Newcastle AW but he did handle that Tapeta earlier in his career, so perhaps the switch to this track might pay off in first-time headgear.

Split The Profit

9st 10lb

J: Sorcha Woods

T: Mike Murphy & Michael Keady

Longstanding maiden who was turned over at short prices a few times in the spring before out of his depth latest (tough stall); is odds-on to fluff the start but should do better if getting away under a 7lb claimer.

Form & Verdict
Fought off three of today's rivals to score at Chester (5f, good; handles soft/heavy) last month under a canny front-running ride; that continued his steady progress and he should give another bold show, although he may find it more difficult to dominate in this much bigger field; visored first time.

J: Lewis Chalkley

T: Michael & David Easterby

Over two years since the second of his two wins; lurks on a dangerous mark though and his two runs this year have seen him finish within 3l of the winner; has his first run at Pontefract but he is effective around a left-hand turn; can't rule out from a handy draw.

It's a long time since he won but he was a close third over C&D (good to soft) last September and was an encouraging sixth of 18 on reappearance at Thirsk (6f, good); refitted with cheekpieces (which are combined with his tongue-tie) for the first time since a win at Nottingham in autumn 2023; non-runner here on Sunday with a vet's certificate.

Form & Verdict
Bred for speed and showed plenty of it when making all at Windsor (5f, soft) last spring; went down narrowly in Newbury Listed race in the summer but her two efforts since have been underwhelming; needs to have come on a ton since her reappearance run but that's not out of the question.

Form & Verdict
Frustrating for win backers (0-9; runner-up seven times) but turned in a personal best when beaten a neck at Ascot (6f, good) three weeks ago; will need to be delivered with stealth, but today's drop back to 5f and likely strong pace could suit him down to the ground and he's impossible to rule out.

Was becoming frustrating and only beat two rivals at odds-on in a 6f Southwell maiden 22 days ago; however, has the ability to threaten off this mark should that be a springboard to better things.

Kept improving as a 2yo, dropping to 5f for two wins in the mud in the autumn; had excuses at Sandown (good ground and drawn widest) on handicap/seasonal debut and may still have untapped potential; could have a say, especially if there's been plenty of rain.

Dual 5f winner as a 2yo for Peter Chapple-Hyam and he also scored three times in France/Italy last year; raised his form to a new level in the second half of last season but he failed to beat a rival on stable debut at Goodwood 17 days ago; comes with risks attached after that and he needs to bounce back.
