Form & Verdict
Sole win in 6f novice at Newcastle as 3yo; yard's handicappers often progress well but this one, despite being in good form, has yet to look ahead of his mark; not impossible he'll improve for the switch to Polytrack.

Four sprint wins on the AW, most recently in January; failed to find much on yard debut at Wolverhampton recently and now has something to prove, again going without his regular tongue-tie.

4-29 AW; close third off this mark here (6f; 12-1) in June; has left Michael Keady for 3,000gns since last appearance; interesting to see how he responds to the change of scenery.

Form & Verdict
Modest strike-rate but he wasn't on a bad mark on yard debut at Bath (5f) last week and he made all to win with a little up his sleeve; his best Tapeta form suggests he can make a go of it under a penalty on first Polytrack run, with this sharp 6f unlikely to be a problem.

Well handicapped and although he is now 0-19 for this yard, he has run several good races in defeat; latest Wolverhampton second was one of them and he is more appealing than many.

Some good runs during his losing streak and did well to finish second at Bath in the penultimate one after starting slowly; his sixth of 17 back there was in a competitive race.

On a losing run and last two defeats were in races won by Legendsoftheland and Geemann; however, did well to finish second last time after a slow start and not without hope.

Form & Verdict
Has had a tremendous year and she added to earlier wins, including a C&D classified and a Wolverhampton handicap, when scuttling well clear at Chepstow (6f) last week; likely due a bigger rise than today's 5lb penalty; every chance.

Three course wins over 5f/6f; just 2lb above her last winning mark and softening ground wouldn't be a problem, but she needs to do better than in her last two starts.

Often leads; has C&D form but hasn't run on the AW since June 2023 and her recent turf efforts haven't been encouraging.
