16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Lowly rated Flat maiden who struggled (albeit in much better race than this) on hurdling debut in March; difficult to enthuse over. |

Very modest maiden on the Flat and a win on today's hurdle debut would be a huge shock. |

4th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Maiden who's been turned over as favourite on four of his last six starts; pulled hard/hung left at Brighton last time and has the ability to win this in a first-time tongue-tie but there can only be so many excuses. |
12/1 |
|
4th 1 (4) |
25th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Has ability as he showed when second of 11 in the first-time hood at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) last month, but he didn't back it up there (7f, soft) 12 days ago; now 0-11 and not quite sure what to expect. |
2/1 |

13th Jun 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Maiden (0-10); runner-up on both visits to Yarmouth, including over 1m here (in a first-time hood) three weeks ago; shouldn't have any issue with the forecast conditions, so likely to have a say in the outcome. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Registered his most recent win off just 1lb lower over 1m4f here in February but hasn't shown enough in two runs back from a break to suggest his turn is near. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Registered his most recent win off just 1lb lower at Southwell (1m4f) in February; well below par on return from layoff last time but may fare better with that outing under his belt. |

12th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
6f course winner who put up her best recent effort back here over C&D (good) on her penultimate start; inconsistent; never involved in better company at Newmarket (7f, good) latest; should appreciate a return to this level but is hard to predict; cheekpieces go on. |

16th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
Ran quite well under Lillie Dingle at Yarmouth (7f, good; scene of sole success) but she's not the easiest to predict and is 5lb higher here (out of the weights). |

10th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Veteran five-time course winner who's still capable of being competitive, as he showed when second to Urban Dandy in a classified here (1m) a month ago; the return to handicaps asks for a bit more. |
