Form & Verdict
Won a Newcastle novice (5f, AW) on his stable debut in February and he's run several good races since including when a close fourth in a Beverley handicap (5f) last time; didn't get much luck there and looks interesting back up in trip; last run was on good to firm but he's versatile ground-wise.

Over two years since his last success but he retains some ability and begins life with his new stable off a lowly mark (left Julie Camacho for £7,000 last month); others appeal more.

His last win was in June 2023 but that was off 12lb higher at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) and he's run several good races this season; wasn't beaten far with visor added at Southwell last time and he's in the mix back on turf.

Course winner who scored at Ripon (6f, soft) last July and is just 2lb higher on this reappearance outing; however, 6f has been this 11yo's optimum trip in recent seasons, and this is his first run since October.

Form & Verdict
Has returned from a break with fair efforts at Wetherby (5.5f, good to soft) and over C&D (heavy) but his losing run is now up to 22 and this is a big step back up in grade; looks vulnerable again.

Five turf wins at 6f-7f, the latest two over the latter trip on this track; he's had some excuses for low-key reappearances in the past but it's still a stretch to expect him to be on song for this one.

Made all to win a Doncaster maiden (6.5f, good) for Hugo Palmer as a 2yo and a similar level of form in three turf handicaps for this yard since returning in June; needs a bit more but is closely related to a few AW winners so she could improve for the new surface.

Form & Verdict
All of his turf runs have been on good or slower; had several close calls in his first seven starts before getting off the mark in a Windsor novice (6f, soft) last month; knuckled down well in that race and he still looks on a workable mark for handicaps; big player if the ground is suitable.
