Form & Verdict
Both wins have come over 1m2f on varying ground at Nottingham, the latest from 3lb lower last month where she had a couple of subsequent winners behind; finished a well-held third of four at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) last time (just behind Rhubarb Bikini) and may prefer a flatter track.

Has done well in three starts since joining this yard, winning at Goodwood (1m2f, good) last month and going down by just a neck at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) eight days ago; due to go up another 1lb from the weekend and a major player.

Hearty strike-rate on turf, adding another in a Racing League race at Yarmouth (1m2f) in July; less of a win machine on AW but both wins have come on this track, over C&D and 1m4f in early 2024, and he was involved in a tight finish back on AW at Wolverhampton two starts ago; not far away.

Form & Verdict
Lingfield winner in January who was making his turf debut when fourth of 13 at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month, finishing just behind a subsequent winner; didn't enjoy the best of runs there and has been dropped 1lb since, but he may prefer a stiffer test than this.

His last win was in September 2024 but he went close at Chelmsford (1m2f) in February and he ran respectably over C&D last time; usually comes from off the pace and could be dangerous if he gets the breaks.

Came good for Simon Hodgson at fourth attempt, leading close home at Brighton (1m, good; visored) last month; raced too freely in first-time blinkers there last week but still ran well; has the visor refitted here and this drop back to 7f is an interesting move; might be the answer.

Resurgent 8yo who has rattled off a hat-trick on AW this spring including a clearcut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month; this is tougher off 9lb higher but he remains feasibly treated on his old form and is a five-time winner on turf; key player.

Appeared to have lost his way, but with cheekpieces added he ran a much better race from the front when second of six over C&D (good) four weeks ago; races off the same mark (4lb lower than for his latest win) but much depends on whether the headgear works again.
