Form & Verdict
Two 7f wins since October and latest was at Southwell last month; well held in last two runs but she ran well for a long way when sixth of 14 at Thirsk (7f, heavy) last week; now returns to sprinting but her first success came over C&D and she's only 2lb higher than for last win; hard to rule out.

His last win was in July 2021 but that was off 19lb higher at Haydock (6f, good) and he was a good second at Newcastle (Tapeta) two weeks ago; should go well again back on turf and he's respected for in-form yard.

Won twice over C&D in late 2025, the latter success coming off a 2lb higher mark; more recent efforts need bettering but this is likely to be run to suit and dropping back into a 0-60 could see her bounce back to form.
