Form & Verdict
Inconsistent eight-race maiden who returned from an absence with a never-dangerous fourth on her stable debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack; 50-1) last month; mark continues to fall but she needs to find some extra spark to get involved.

Form & Verdict
Sole win from 19 starts came on Fibresand at Southwell (7f) in April 2021; looks interesting on a couple of placed efforts (1m/9.4f) last February but he's not posed a threat in his two runs this winter and others are more persuasive.

Form & Verdict
Infrequent winner but his last success came off a higher mark at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) last February and he had a near miss in 7f classified event there on Wednesday; has got back on track in his last two starts and he looks interesting on this step back up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Got back on the scoresheet when making all over C&D in November and he's finished placed in classified events in his last two starts including a close second at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last time; remains well treated on his old form and he's a big player back in a handicap.

Recorded his second win when landing a C&D handicap in September but he's not hit the same level since and was tailed off at Lingfield in December; that run probably came too soon but he's not easy to predict and is still 4lb higher than for last win; comes with risks attached on return.

Often front-runs yet was held up when never dangerous behind River Chorus at Wolverhampton on Friday (7f); should do better if reverting to usual tactics and he's a course winner with no stamina doubts.

Form & Verdict
Won on Polytrack at Lingfield (1m; off 4lb lower) last April and was runner-up three times at Brighton after that but he was disappointing there in his final run last summer; bit to prove after 191 days off and he has an uninspiring record when fresh.

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.

Form & Verdict
Triple turf winner who is 0-26 on AW but she was a creditable front-running second in a classified event at Kempton (7f) two weeks ago; now steps back up to 1m but she's unexposed at this distance and was placed in her last try at this trip; not ruled out back in a handicap.
