J: Isobelle Chalmers

A seven-time winner over 6f, with the latest of those coming in August 2022; failed to beat a rival home in his last two outings and he's opposable from out of the weights on his first start since March.

Form & Verdict
Justified favouritism off 4lb lower at Kempton (6f) two weeks ago, registering a third Polytrack success; ran creditably on Tapeta at Southwell the time before; continues in good form and looks a major player.

T: Michael Appleby

A poor run on New Year's Day is easily ignored (played up in stalls and missed break completely) and he'd been in good form prior to that, winning over this C&D in August and finishing third in a big field at Southwell just before Christmas; unlikely to be far away.

She won twice at Wolverhampton for Alice Haynes last year, notably a 5f handicap success in September; not quite so good back there the following month; sold for 21,000gns in November; cheekpieces the headgear of choice on this stable debut (has won in them before).

Form & Verdict
Clear best effort this term when second in classified event at Pontefract two starts ago; not exactly solid on 2022 form and chance largely depends on how well he responds to this new scenario (AW debut).
