Has plenty of Musselburgh form, including three wins, but looks far from solid on his efforts for new yard and sometimes blows the start; returns to Class 6 for first time since 2023.

Three course wins, the latest last August, and he's well treated on that form (even from out of the weights today); however, this season's form has been mixed and others have more pressing claims.

Form & Verdict
Off the mark over C&D last September (good to soft) off 2lb lower; not so good in her three starts since, albeit not beaten far when ninth of 14 here (1m1f) last time; needs to be back at her peak, at the least.

Off the mark at Hamilton (1m3f, good to soft) last September, and she's been operating near that level in her last three starts; these improved terms offer a chance to take revenge over Simple Star (Hamilton) and Gibside (York), and she has a good record under the returning Paul Mulrennan.

Form & Verdict
Won at Beverley (1m2f, good) and York (1m4f, good to firm; 3lb higher today) last July; plenty of good runs in defeat before and after those last year but not on either of his starts this season; needs a revival but not dismissed just yet, including as he won on his only run here (2021).

The last two of his seven wins were at this track, albeit in 2024; placed twice over 1m2f here in a mixed campaign last autumn/winter; well beaten at 25-1 five weeks ago, a run which he may have needed after six months off and he's now back to his last winning mark, but this race looks too hot.

Form & Verdict
Had a rather mixed record last season but went close on reappearance this April and scored by a head when fitted with first-time cheekpieces in six-runner race over C&D ten days later; back up 2lb but no surprise if he improves on his third in this race last year.

Form & Verdict
Won debut for Andrew Balding in 2021; only five starts since, best result when second of 13 in handicap at Haydock (1m2f, good) in April; well beaten at York 18 days later (drawn wide and tried to come from the rear) but may still have more to offer in this less competitive race.
