9st 4lb

J: Kieran Shoemark

Record of 0-9 for current stable but he has made the frame in last three attempts over 7f; could go well returned to this distance with Newbury reappearance (6f) under his belt.

String of runs last summer (6f-7f) suggested he was ahead of his mark but he often ran into trouble and/or got going too late; no surprise at all were he to take this back from a break but he is not one for the faint of heart.

J: Kieran Shoemark

T: Ed Walker

Two wins for Andrew Balding, the second an Ascot handicap in May 2024 (good), before 50,000gns sale last October; taken time to hit top form for new yard but sound runs on last two starts, latest a close third in a Newbury handicap last month (7f, good to soft); interesting.

J: William Buick

Two wins last year for previous yard; 0-6 for current stable but was an eyecatching fourth, amid major traffic issues, when favourite at Haydock (7f, good) most recently; clear possibilities off same mark.

J: P J McDonald

T: Ed Walker

Mixed fortunes for new yard this season and failed to threaten at Newcastle (6f, AW) a fortnight ago, but he's now 2lb lower than when second of 16 here (6f, good) in May and the step back up to 7f could be the right move; unraced on slow ground.
