Form & Verdict
Caused a 25-1 surprise when scoring on his handicap debut over C&D (soft; tongue-tie added) in May; held in third of six at Hamilton (8.3f, good; Jonny Concrete fourth) last time but his saddle slipped in that tactical race and he still has potential; not ruled out back at this track.

Won twice over a mile on soft ground at Haydock for David O'Meara; placed on one of his five starts over hurdles for present yard but well beaten at Chester on latest Flat start; hard to fancy.

J: William Maggs

Fairly useful on the Flat for David O'Meara in 2024 (two wins) but last season's hurdling form for Donald McCain was underwhelming; ran better than eventual 13l defeat suggests when third of five on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) in April but has been well beaten on the Flat since; improvement required.

Form & Verdict
Promising third on her debut at Leicester (7f, good) before narrowly landing a four-runner fillies' novice over C&D (soft) two weeks later; well held in second on AW latest but that was a tough task behind a smart prospect and she could resume her progress on this handicap debut.

Justified favouritism when winning a Haydock novice (1m, soft) in May; runner-up in next two starts and she wasn't beaten far after missing the break in a Haydock handicap (fifth of ten) last time; returns after four months off but she still has potential and could find more at this new trip; blinkers worn last time are removed.

T: Edward Bethell

Showed promise on good ground on debut in May before winning over C&D (soft); 2l second of four on handicap debut over C&D three weeks ago (soft; behind Miaswell who was declared in the 3.35) and perhaps the first-time headgear will eke out something extra; yard remains in good form.

Several creditable efforts in his seven starts but he's still a maiden and was only fourth of six in a Hamilton handicap (8.3f, good) last time; others preferred.

Prominent racer who prevailed in a big field at York (7f, good to firm) in July and followed up at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month; today's race will take more winning but this 5yo is clearly thriving; respected.

Ran well in defeat on first four starts this season then held on gamely to win 18-runner York handicap (7f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; effectively 4lb higher here if Jack Nicholls' reduced claim is considered but ought to be right in the thick of things again.

Form & Verdict
All turf runs have been on good or slower ground; record of 1-8 but her win was in a Bath maiden (7.4f, soft) in May and she found more progress with her narrow defeat in a Catterick handicap (7f, soft) ten days ago; only 1lb higher here and she looks worth another try at this trip; respected.

Consistent filly who has only once finished out of the frame; won a Beverley maiden in May (7.5f, soft) and best run in handicaps when second at Catterick two runs ago (7f, soft); not so good at 1m last time; a possible but best form on soft ground.
