Took advantage of a sliding mark when easily winning an ordinary Nottingham handicap from the front five weeks ago; drawn to attack again and fine on Tapeta but an 8lb rise will test him into a deeper race.

Campaigned mainly over 5f, most recently 2l fourth at Nottingham last weekend; remains well treated, having gained both handicap wins off higher marks, and has two pieces of 6f form this year; shortlisted.

Well handicapped on his 2025 best and he hasn't always enjoyed much luck on AW this winter; creditable third of nine at Southwell (6f) back from a short break 23 days ago; Mick Appleby has won this twice in recent years.

February foal by Advertise; dam 5f/5.7f winner (RPR 84), half-sister to 5.5f 2yo Group 3 winner Cay Verde out of 7f-1m winning half-sister to 5f-6f winner Artsu, is granddaughter of half-sister to high-class sprinter Bold Edge; stable can get them ready first time and had an impressive 2yo debut winner at Wolverhampton last week (well backed); interesting, especially if similarly popular in the market.

13-race maiden but he's reached the frame in sprint handicaps on AW in his last four starts; remains unexposed on turf and he could go well again off a sliding mark back in this sphere.

Form & Verdict
February foal by Profitable; bred to handle the AW and she made the perfect start when beating six rivals in a fillies' novice over C&D 11 days ago; the time looked nothing special and the fourth horse filled the same position at Wolverhampton on Monday, but her experience is an advantage.

Exposed sort who is 0-9 since debut win (5f, AW) in the spring and has failed to progress; on the plus side, she's attractively weighted (10lb lower than last attempt at this trip).

Early-season 5f win as a 2yo when trained by David Evans; unplaced in two handicap runs last summer; still has low mileage and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the market prior to this stable debut (same owners).

Said to have hung left round Kempton on his return from a year off in the spring and, while last of six, offered more latest without seeing out a stiff 7f; lightly raced and no surprise to see him take another step forward.

Won at Nottingham (5f, soft) last April on his second start but he returned after a year off with a heavy defeat at Kempton (6f, AW) this spring; now goes handicapping but has bit to prove after another break and others are preferred.
