Form & Verdict
Fairly useful form when placed on all four 2yo starts and also when keeping-on second over C&D ten days ago, after break/gelding operation; sets the standard and ought to be right in the thick of things again.

Moonstone Boy

9st 3lb

J: Darragh Keenan

Losing run goes back 14 races to May 2025 but he was a good fourth over C&D (heavy) last month and wasn't seen to best effect at Chester (6f, heavy) subsequently; not written off now back here.

Moonstone Boy

J: William Pyle

T: Jennie Candlish

A four-time 5f scorer for Iain Jardine; yet to add to that for his current handler but much better signs after five months off with fourth of 11 in 5f Haydock handicap (heavy) 15 days ago; goes well on soft ground and a likely player.

Moonstone Boy

9st 3lb

J: Darragh Keenan

T: Jennie Candlish

He has no problem with soft ground but hasn't scored since last May and there were diminishing returns in four starts for this yard earlier in the year; career-low mark, however, and maybe a 147-day break will have chalked his cue; watch the market.

Form & Verdict
Has lots of speed in her pedigree and recovered well to take third (just over 1l behind Moonstone Boy) over C&D on recent debut; ought to have learned from that experience and could be hard to beat this time.

Form & Verdict
Displayed significant improvement when keeping-on sixth of seven (beaten just under 3l) over C&D ten days ago, her third start, but never looked likely to threaten the principals and was probably flattered by her proximity to both Moonstone Boy and Orchard Park.

Only 1lb higher than when beating Colors Of Freedom over C&D last month; solid placed efforts on his last two starts (caught wide over C&D latest) and he should remain competitive.

Won a similar race over C&D for Joanna Mason last month before again not looking to see out 6f next time; too many near-misses for comfort but holds similar claims to Captain Kinsella on Newcastle running four days ago.

Again didn't look to see out 6f last time and is best judged on his previous 0-50 Wolverhampton victory; too many near-misses for comfort prior to that but will rightly be popular.

Half-sister to useful 6f/7f winner Dark Thirty; dam a Listed-placed 7f-1m2f winner (RPR 95); 22-1, dropped out tamely and was well beaten when last of five on debut at Chelmsford (5f) in November; ought to be capable of much better at some stage but looks too risky in first-time hood here.
