Ran her first disappointing race for this yard when last of six at Brighton last month, a race where conditions should have been fine; overall profile suggests she'll bounce back quickly. |

0-18 overall and, after 265 days off, never dangerous in his two starts last month; several minor honours last year and one was a C&D second, which would make him look well handicapped but he's not the percentage call. |

No wins in 18 starts and was only seventh of nine runners over 7f at Kempton on his return from a break; needs to step up on that effort, though 1m is fine for him. |

Has form figures of 513143222 for her current yard and she hit a personal best when going close at Kempton (1m3f, Polytrack) last month; only 1lb higher here and she's a big player again back on Tapeta. |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |

6yo who's never been better, with two ready 1m4f wins for new yard this year and good efforts to be placed on last two outings; has had just one race on soft (none on heavy) but won it, in 2023; needs a second look. |

Has dropped a long way in the weights since his last win in April 2021; has shaped as though he would appreciate the return to 1m in his last two starts, but all five wins have come over 7f and he has finished no closer than sixth in ten previous attempts at this sort of trip. |

21st Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Ninth start was his best yet when off the mark in ten-runner classified at Bath (1m2f, firm) 18 days ago, narrowly doing enough in a sustained duel; has tried varied headgear (blinkers last time) and that win came when tongue tied first time; handicap mark has risen 7lb but he's one to consider. |

About as effective at his best on fast turf as Polytrack (7f-1m) but offered little on last month's seasonal return in another of these, and on no better terms tonight; extended 1m2f trip asks a fresh question. |

7f course winner who has also scored over 1m; claims on some of his Irish form as recent as last December; changed hands prior to latest run, when he came in for a bit of support but was never a factor and finished last at Wolverhampton (8.5f, Tapeta); bit to prove. |

9th Aug 2023 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |

Second twice in this grade on Polytrack this year but recent efforts on that surface have been underwhelming, and this switch back to turf is probably not ideal; last win was nearly three years ago; not the percentage call. |

10th Jun 2023 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |

Six-time Polytrack winner but her last success was in 2020 and she has a mixed record this year; went close in a classified event over C&D in March but she struggled at Chelmsford last time and others are more convincing. |
