Likes it here and has course form figures of 713332; hasn't won since October 2024 but blinkers replace cheekpieces and one to consider. |

8th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
No win since October 2024 (Brighton); late headway on return from two-month break at Lingfield (1m2f AW; sixth of 12, 12-1, beaten under 2l) recently; suited by this stiff track (form figures 71333) so isn't totally discounted. |

Dual winner over this trip on turf in 2024 and didn't run at all badly when fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m2f, good) in June after 221 days off; seven previous goes on the AW leave him with something to prove. |

Runner-up at Huntingdon (2m, good to soft) on latest hurdling start in March and subsequently won a bottom-grade Flat race but his subsequent Flat form was disappointing and he has stamina to prove today. |

9st 3lb |
Reliable mare who won at Windsor (11.4f) in May and was runner-up at Epsom (1m2f) when last seen in August; now returns to AW but she's unexposed in this sphere and has claims if she can repeat that latest form. |

Reliable mare who gained this season's win in three-runner contest at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) in May; suited by this C&D and will appreciate today's ease in grade; each-way claims at least. |

All three wins have come at Brighton (1m2f/1m4f); placed in his last two starts in similar contests at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) and has run well on Tapeta at Southwell; first-time visor replaces the usual blinkers and he has every chance on these terms; high on list. |

18th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |

Has suffered some heavy defeats of late, but almost sprang a 80-1 surprise when only headed close home by Foinix over C&D last Tuesday; if he is able to back up that run then he comes here with a shout. |

17th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft; runner-up off 7lb higher here (1m) in June but he's not come close to that form since; had an excuse when upped to 1m2f here last time but his losing run is mounting up and others look safer; change of headgear. |

Hard to predict these days and losing run is up to 13, but he had an excuse over 1m5f last time and is now 4lb lower than for his C&D win (good to firm) last summer; could be dangerous back in trip. |

Ended a long losing run when scoring at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) in June but he was beaten a long way in his follow-up bid at Brighton (1m2f); now drops back at this trip but he's not easy to predict and has always been more potent on turf (0-9 on AW); down the list. |

Has hit form lately, going down by a neck here (1m, good) in May and going one better at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) last month; well held in one previous attempt over this far, but recent efforts suggest he is worth another go; respected from 4lb higher. |
