Form & Verdict
Has run well in two of her three handicaps and she justified favouritism back in a maiden over 1m at Kempton (AW; second won since); would appear to have little room to manoeuvre off this mark but is effective with give underfoot and running better than most; respected.

0-6 but she's been generally progressive and has recorded RPRs in the 80s in her last two runs (handicaps); ran well for a long way when third at Sandown (1m2f) last time and that was after a strong-finishing fourth over C&D in June; this is competitive back in a maiden but she's respected for in-form yard.

Promise when making the frame in 1m maiden/novice events on soft turf and AW last autumn; her first two efforts this term were a little disappointing but she got her career back on track when fourth in 1m Kempton handicap two months ago; the way she kept on from the rear on that occasion suggests this return to 1m2f should suit; retains potential.

Front-runner who ran another good race at Chester last time when just missing out on the places; however, an 8lb higher mark than for his last win is looking troublesome; handles soft.

J: Miss Brodie Hampson

Creditable third off 9lb higher over C&D on soft ground (acts on good to firm) last September in his only Epsom race; AW campaign in the winter for new yard did not go at all well until he perked up a bit in February on his last two outings; needs to build on that after his break but he's too well handicapped to be ignored.

Struggled early on for this yard (at huge prices) but he was dropped into a Class 6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f) 12 days ago, backed into 11-8 favouritism and duly returned to form, finding only an in-form rival too good; 1lb rise not an issue given what he was capable of last year; key player.

Two wins (1m2f/1m4f) in 2025 for previous yard, but he's raced in the rear and stayed there in all five runs for this trainer; on dangerous mark on this drop back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark.

Form & Verdict
Admirably consistent in handicaps but maybe anchored by a 5lb rise when coming up short when raised to 1m2f at Chester; perhaps 1m is ideal and, although now high in the weights, he should be in the thick of it.

Came good for Jim Goldie at third attempt, in refitted cheekpieces at Hamilton last month, and bettered that form when close third in competitive race at York (also 1m1f, good) soon afterwards; not quite at same level over the extended 1m2f at York last time but still a major player here.
