Form & Verdict
Effective at both sprint trips but all four wins have been gained over 5f on Tapeta; made a winning debut for Darryll Holland at Wolverhampton in January but he's been well held in three runs since; still unexposed on turf but he's not the percentage call back in this sphere.

Nine-time winner; good runs few and far between in 2025 and he made a low-key return to action over C&D two weeks ago; revival not out of the question but others look safer.

Most recent wins were over 5f/5.5f for Darryll Holland in August and September 2024; some fair runs since and just as effective at 6f but lacks a recent outing; back with a former yard.

Nine-time winner, including once here (5f), and currently 6lb lower than for his last success; returned to Darryll Holland ahead of his fourth of eight at Brighton 11 days ago; market useful with the stable also running Kodi Red.

Form & Verdict
24-race maiden but he wasn't far behind Master Sully here (5.3f) last month and he backed that up with a close second at Lingfield (6f, AW) ten days ago; could make another bold bid and he's respected.

Form & Verdict
Has record of 1-19 but his win came in a classified event (5f, Polytrack) in January and he had a near miss in a handicap here (5.3f, good to firm) two weeks ago; that was a strong-finishing effort under Saffie Osborne and he's a major player back up in trip.

Record is just 1-21; however, went very close in Brighton handicap (5.2f, good to firm) three starts ago and had poor fortune (came from difficult position, met trouble) in classified event won by Notre Maison at same venue latest; clear possibilities if this pans out better.

Didn't make any further progress after winning stable debut in January (5f, AW) but finished well to go very close in C&D handicap three weeks ago; no threat to clear winner when third in this grade here (6f, good to firm) in Friday but that was still a fairly good effort; major player.

Form & Verdict
Won a classified event at Wolverhampton (5f) last March but he's 0-15 since and has finished down the field here in his last two runs; had an awkward start over 5.3f last time but was behind two of today's rivals in that race and he looks opposable on balance.

Sole win from 17 starts was in a Bath handicap (5.7f, good to firm) in October 2021 and she's not got involved in four runs for new yard this season; missed the break when sixth of 11 back at Bath two weeks ago and others are preferred.

Form & Verdict
Placed seven times in AW handicaps (6f/7f) but he's still a maiden after 19 starts and was never dangerous at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) last time; still unexposed on turf and has some form at this track but others are more persuasive.

Finally got off the mark when winning in first-time visor (retained since) at Chelmsford (5f, AW) in April; lightly raced on turf but came last at Bath (5f, good to soft) latest and has something to prove on grass.
