Form & Verdict
Won off 2lb higher at Leicester (1mf, good to soft) last summer but he's not hit the same level since and was in rear at Kempton in his final run during the winter; returns to turf after a short break but he needs to get back near his best.

Just 2-18 over hurdles but looked back in prime form at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) last month, winning 13-runner handicap by 3l, and a subsequent 5lb rise is not excessive.

Form & Verdict
Ten-race maiden who is a frequent slow starter but she has claims on her best form last season, including a third at Chepstow (1m, soft) on her penultimate run; produced a strong finish in that race and she's one to keep an eye on at this new trip on her return.

Inconsistent nine-race maiden but he's unexposed at middle distances and ended last season with a good second in the mud at Epsom (1m4f); nudged up 2lb for that but has claims if he claims if he can pick up where he left off.

His only win (17 races) came in April 2023 at Windsor; can race freely and makes his first start in seven months; has raced on AW only twice and has the assistance of Oisin Murphy for the first time; difficult to gauge but any market move should be noted.

Form & Verdict
Has mixed record since his debut win at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in September 2021 but he's still lightly raced and was a fair third at Chelmsford (1m5f, Polytrack) in his final run last season; blinkers are removed on this switch back to turf but he needs checking in market on return.

Went close off 4lb higher at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in his final run for Henry Candy but he's struggled at big prices in two AW runs (1m/1m4f) for new yard this spring; record now stands at 0-8 and others are more convincing.

Form & Verdict
22-1 winner on her handicap debut at Newmarket (1m2f, good) last June but she ended last season with two low-key runs; looks feasibly treated on her best 3yo form but has bit to prove after 189 days off and she probably wants the ground to dry out; hood worn last time is removed.

Has form figures of 4433231 on AW since November, with the win gained off 3lb lower at Kempton (1m4f) last month; now returns to 1m2f on turf but she still looks on a workable mark and was successful on soft ground in her early days; key player.

Two good runs in Class 6 company at Chepstow in the summer, getting off the mark at the 14th attempt in August; bled from the nose when disappointing at that track in September; sold for 5,000gns in November and just the type that Mick Appleby will find races for; betting instructive.
