Form & Verdict
Has form over 7f but the drop to 5f seemed to pay off in his second handicap at the trip, when scraping home over C&D in May (good to soft); things not gone as well since but perhaps cheekpieces will help.

Back to winning form at Thirsk (6f, heavy) last month and has twice run well since, fourth of nine on ground that would have been quick enough at Beverley (5f) last time; considered under his promising amateur.

Form & Verdict
Looked to handle soft ground when third on 2yo debut; raced on good or quicker in 2022 and although not at her best two starts ago she was full value for a subsequent 1lb rise when beating a next-time-out winner at Newmarket 24 days ago (5f); Oisin McSweeney takes off 5lb; respected.

Sole win came on soft as 2yo; had a slow start to time with this yard and although he has dropped to quite a tempting mark his best form has come on flat tracks; needs turnaround.

Handles most ground and both his wins have come at this track (5f); only 1lb higher than for his close second here in July and he made a decent start for this yard when a rallying second of four at Brighton (6f, soft) two weeks ago; now goes back up in grade but he's not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Most of best form is on good or quicker but has won on soft; suited by a tough test at 5f and despite taking a fearsome hold at Pontefract 13 days ago he had enough energy left to finish strongly into third behind Soul Seeker; only 3lb higher than when winning this last year; solid chance.

5 yo Gelding

OR: 77

Form & Verdict
Suited by good or quicker, has handled good to soft; ended a dismal run when getting the upper hand in refitted cheekpieces at Pontefract recently (5f; Melody King a fast-finishing third); back up 4lb but still well treated on past form and has won two of his three C&D runs; should be competitive.
