Form & Verdict
Has done most racing in sprints, mainly in better company; has lost the winning habit but is on an attractive mark and it wouldn't surprise were first-time headgear to do the job.

0-5 here but runner-up the once; won off this mark at Salisbury in July and back to form in new blinkers at Brighton (fourth); the obvious concern is that all eight wins have been at 6f or 7f.

Two C&D wins, both on good to firm; narrow winner of a 7f amateur jockeys' race at Salisbury in July and although lesser efforts over 1m have followed, he has possibilities back at 7f; new blinkers replace a visor.

Form & Verdict
Free-going mare who often makes the running, as when finally off the mark at Chepstow recently; raised 4lb but Rhys Clutterbuck takes off a useful 3lb; however, far from certain to get her own way.

J: Miss Jodie Wingrove

T: Damien Wingrove

Her wins for Malcolm Saunders came over 6f-7f on turf; sold for 1,500gns recently; one of her better efforts at Epsom last time, a course she's always liked, but stamina and the surface switch are two concerns.

All eight of her wins have been over shorter trips, two at this track over 7f in 2023; below her best in both starts since finishing runner-up in first-time cheekpieces at Brighton (7f, good to firm) and others are preferred.

6 yo Mare

OR: 60

Form & Verdict
Ran up a four-timer last summer, including three wins over C&D, latterly off a 5lb higher mark; much her best effort of the season from the front here last time and, while her stable remains quiet, she needs considering after that.

J: Zoe Lewis

T: Thomas Faulkner

Triple C&D winner for Robyn Brisland in 2021 and came good for current stable at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) in June, having reportedly benefited from the reapplication of a hood; reverted to her free-going tendencies when midfield on consecutive outings without a hood last month, though, and the headgear is again missing here.

Dual C&D winner who's been doing his racing over further in recent times; can never be discounted round this place but there's other pace in here and he needs to find a bit more from somewhere.

12-time winner including over C&D; has mixed record since last success in May 2024 but he's reached the frame here in two of his last four runs; things didn't go well over C&D last time but he had a wide trip in that race and could be dangerous if he can bounce back.
