Form & Verdict
Sent off the odds-on favourite for his C&D debut in November; green through the race but hard not to be taken by the way he scythed through the pack from 3f out, winning by a wide margin and recording a good Topspeed figure despite being eased down in the final 100 yards; that perhaps wasn't a vintage novice race but he's very promising.

J: Kieran Shoemark

Career started with two AW wins at Kempton, looking the type to develop into a smart sort; hasn't lived up to expectations in two turf events since but perhaps needed the latest one, having been absent for 11 months; lightly raced and can't be written off.

9st 6lb

J: Kieran Shoemark

T: John & Thady Gosden

Absent since being beaten at 4-9 in Listed race at Sandown (1m, good to soft) last May, finishing third of four on his turf debut; however, he went there unbeaten following two 1m AW wins and this very lightly raced 4yo retains considerable potential for his top stable; intriguing contender.

Shaped nicely on his sole 2yo start; not beaten far into fourth on his return to action 16 days ago (1m, Polytrack); more to come but such progress will be required.

Form & Verdict
Promising fourth at Southwell in October (7f) and confirmed that with a comfortable win at Doncaster 17 days later (7f, soft); that form looks solid and he was still learning as the race went on; 1m should suit; interesting contender.

9st 7lb

J: Rossa Ryan

T: David Evans

His only win came in a 7f Doncaster maiden as a 2yo; struggled for David Evans thus far but he's dropped 22lb since August and many of those runs have come over an inadequate 6f; the booking of Rossa Ryan and the addition of a visor point to a better showing this evening; confidence would increase if backed.

OR:

Form & Verdict
Under pressure a long way out on his Thirsk debut (7f, soft; tongue-tied) last September but he found plenty, eventually getting up in the final strides (front two well clear; form worked out); had a wind operation three days later; returns to action over a trip that should suit and with undoubted potential for more.

9st 3lb

J: Clifford Lee

T: K R Burke

Did well early in his carerer including when beating three rivals in the 2024 Brigadier Gerard (1m2f, soft); 0-8 since, albeit twice placed at the highest level; pulled too hard when beaten over 6l into sixth of 12 behind Starford on his return in a Group 3 at the Curragh (1m2f, soft) last month, but that should have taken the freshness out of him; could probably do with the ground easing, though.

Best form when fourth in a Kempton novice last time (7f) despite racing too freely; chance on handicap debut, particularly if he settles better.
