31st May 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Showed some ability when trained in UK and again in two Irish maidens over slightly longer trips; looks quick enough for the minimum and could have a future in handicaps off this low a mark. |

Showed some ability when trained in UK and a solid return at Sligo; can improve from that, so has a shout with a tongue-tie on. |

7th Jan 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Catterick nursery winner (7f, soft) for Ed Dunlop in September 2023, and runner-up on AW at Southwell (7f; 28-1, when 8lb higher) last summer; nothing positive to take from recent C&D stable debut; risky in first-time hood. |

9st 6lb |
Steady progression in handicaps this year but he's had plenty of racing now and the handicapper knows where he is; no obvious reason he won't go well again for his in-form yard but is vulnerable to improvers. |

Modest maiden who signed off for Tom Dascombe with a solid third of ten in 1m1f Lingfield handicap in May; changed hands for 3,2000gns in June and he's no forlorn hope for his new yard after a break with blinkers replacing the usual cheekpieces. |

10th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Holds solid claims on the form of her Thirsk 7f novice second in August but she was well below par when sixth (on good to soft ground) in a similar event at Chester last month; more is needed now going into handicaps. |

Stepped up plenty on his debut form to finish second at Thirsk (7f, good), though was no match for the comfortable winner; may need more. |

16th Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Only win in 20 races was at Nottingham in July 2023 (6f, soft); very well handicapped on that form but mainly disappointing this season and hard to fancy. |
25/1 |

5th 8 (6) |
14th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Won a Nottingham handicap (6f, soft) last July but she's 0-14 since and has finished down the field in most of her runs this season; now 12lb lower than for her win but she's finished behind Alice's Impact a couple of times recently and others are more convincing. |
12/1 |

5th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has done most racing in sprints and has regressed this year; stamina will be tested again, round a stiff course from the outside stall, and she's some way down the pecking order. |

Didn't run badly when seventh here two starts ago but well beaten at Doncaster since and now 0-7; the hood needs to prompt improvement. |

Verdict
Ed Dunlop won this last year and holds leading claims with LADY AVA, who got off the mark in a soft-ground nursery at Catterick last month. Chat Up Line has run her best races on soft ground and could be best of the rest.[Ben Hutton]
