Form & Verdict
Finished second of four on his debut at Windsor ten days ago (5f, soft); that form is not easy to assess with the winner staying stands' side and the favourite hampered by a goose, but he is bred to be useful and could take a good step forward.

J: Hector Crouch

T: Ralph Beckett

Ready winner of a C&D handicap last summer off a 12lb lower mark; better than ever when a close fourth in a Wolverhampton Listed race in March and he faced a stiff task at Haydock three weeks ago; should give his running but could find one or two stronger back in handicap company.

Not the easiest of rides (sometimes slowly away and can pull hard) but he's smart on his day and he wasn't beaten far when sixth in the July Cup at Newmarket last summer; now having first run since and this is a significant drop in grade; stablemate of James's Delight and gives Clive Cox a strong hand.

Form & Verdict
8-1 for his debut in a warm novice at Newmarket last month (5f, good to soft) where he was always on the back foot after a slow start; never able to land a blow on that occasion but he ran the final 2f quicker than all bar one rival and the experience should have taught him plenty; could take a significant step forward today.

Too green to do himself justice at Doncaster on debut 19 days ago (5f, soft) but there was sufficient promise in the run to think he would be up to winning a similar event; considered.

Quite promising early-season 2yo for George Boughey last year but his three runs for Gay Kelleway this spring (6f-7.4f) were underwhelming; needs the first-time blinkers to give him a boost here.

Won at Newbury (7f, good to soft) last September and at Lingfield (7f, AW) in December, and he scored over 1m in 2024; however, he has an up-and-down profile and was well beaten on his reappearance three weeks ago (8.6f, AW); this is tougher than he's used to and he may be best watched.
