18th Mar 2024 Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
1m2f winner on soft at a much lower level in Britain but 72-rated filly has no chance here on stable debut. |
66/1 |

2nd Oct 2023 Soft 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 12lb |
Won off 1lb higher on soft ground in April, albeit having dictated in small field; inconsistent since, latterly at 7f; returns to 1m2f. |

10th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Comfortable winner off this mark at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) in January but he's 0-8 since and has been well held in his last three races; now returns to AW but he needs to rediscover his spark. |
9/1 |
|
5th 5 (8) |
1st May 2023 Heavy 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two-time winner whose progress has stalled in recent starts; over 7l to make up with Sparks Fly on last week's C&D run and vulnerable for win purposes. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
24th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His two wins came off slightly lower marks and he's completely exposed after a busy AW campaign; looked to go hard in front last time and has been consistent in the blinkers but remains vulnerable to improvers. |

4th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner on quick ground in August 2024; only flashes of his best form last year; best run was over 7f at Dundalk; poor run there on final outing before a break. |

Second reserve; nearly took advantage of a drop in grade when second over C&D last month; big chance if he gets in. |

28th Sep 2023 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Two 1m handicap wins at Kempton in early 2023; mostly in good form on turf since but likely to need more than his latest defeat on Tapeta, at Wolverhampton nearly two months ago (first-time cheekpieces, retained); course debut. |
7/1 |
|
6th 8 (7) |
16th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Can start slowly and usually comes from off the pace; won twice at Kempton (1m, AW) earlier in the year and he's reached the frame in his last three runs, including a second here (1m, good to firm) in June; still unexposed on turf and he has shaped as though this step back up in trip could suit; in the mix. |

26th Sep 2023 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won 1m Yarmouth novice on good to soft last September; no real evidence he's ahead of his mark this year, despite a somewhat luckless AW run behind Botas (1m) in August; however, his finishing hasn't been that strong over the trip on turf and AW since and looks up against it. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 (10) |
18th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Yarmouth novice winner (1m, good to soft) a year ago and has run some good race since handicapping, especially since headgear went on; finished just behind King Cabo over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time blinkers), but may have finished ahead of that rival with a clear run; could be worth chancing. |
10/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Yarmouth novice winner (1m, good to soft) last autumn and twice runner-up off similar marks in handicaps this summer; possible to forgive his latest effort on AW debut (first-time blinkers), but he could probably do with some rain back on turf. |

30th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Below form the last twice including when well behind Brave Display at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) recently, but is 2-3 over C&D and drops in grade; could make an impact if first-time blinkers have a positive effect. |
6/1 |
|
7th 6 (2) |
16th Jan 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Twice a winner over 1m at Southwell (Tapeta), including on his penultimate start when 3lb lower; can blow the start and was never involved when returning to that C&D latest; hard to have confidence. |

30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
6-31 on AW, four of those wins gained over C&D and the most recent a ready success from a 1lb lower mark last December; failed to settle on outer when only eighth of 12 (Jersey Maverick sixth, State of Madness ninth) at Kempton three weeks ago; others arrive in better form. |

8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Best known for his Southwell exploits, but has run well here including a win over this trip; the outside stall is not ideal, though. |
10/1 |

5th 6 (4) |
13th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Last four wins have been gained over C&D at Class 5 or lower, and tonight's would be the highest banded handicap he has taken in to date; drop back from 1m rates a plus, but clear career best likely required. |

20th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won a 1m handicap here in April off a 9lb higher mark; struggled since but new blinkers saw him fare better here two weeks ago, only weakening in the final furlong; others preferred for win purposes. |

6th Nov 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Won a C&D handicap in April off a 7lb higher mark; struggled badly since, however, and far too much to prove for comfort; cheekpieces debuted latest are now replaced by new blinkers. |

18th Oct 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won over C&D in April on handicap debut and is now 5lb lower; however, he's struggled to get competitive since (here on his last three starts) and hopes are pinned on the first-time cheekpieces prompting a revival. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Had wind surgery prior to her creditable fifth of 18 at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to soft; her only race in cheekpieces) during which she encountered traffic problems; comparable form over 1m2f earlier this season but needs improvement and refused to race at Chepstow nine days ago; others preferred. |

10th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Yet to run a bad race this season and, following a wind op, encountered quite a bit of traffic before keeping on for very respectable fifth of 18 at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) last week; also suited by today's longer trip; can make her presence felt again. |

Verdict
The one that stands out on form is SHE’S HOT, who wasn’t disgraced in the Albany at Royal Ascot and has finished runner-up in her other two starts including behind a useful rival at Goodwood three weeks ago. She gets the vote, ahead of Peace Of Mine who made a good start with her comfortable win at Salisbury last week and is respected under a penalty. Imperial Dream and Roar Emotion have each-way claims, while the pick of the two newcomers could be Almarin.[David Moon]
