Form & Verdict
Sole success in 23 starts came off 12lb higher at Haydock (7f, soft) last May but he's struggled since returning to AW in the autumn, including never a threat when dropped back to 6f at Chelmsford last week; mark continues to fall but not obviously in the form to take advantage.

Placed twice off lowly marks this year and will be suited by today's trip/ground but this regressive 7yo is on a fairly long losing run and others here appeal more; visor the headgear of choice today.

His last win came in December 2023 but he's run some good races this year, including when third of nine at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) in May; well beaten behind some of these rivals at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) 27 days ago, despite being sent off favourite; cheekpieces replace visor.

His last win was in December 2023 but he's run some good races this year including when runner-up in a classified at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February and a close third in Leicester handicap (1m2f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; looks interesting on that form and he's respected in this weak race.

Form & Verdict
Has form figures of 2231121 here since December, the three wins all gained under 5lb claimer Aidan Keeley, the latest when stepped back up to 6f 19 days ago; a further 3lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making another bold bid.

Form & Verdict
Four wins at Chepstow last year; 0-11 on AW but she was placed a few times last winter, including here; been off for six months, though, and all wins achieved below marks of 60 so it's possibly best to look elsewhere this time.
