J: David Egan

T: Richard Spencer

Underwent wind/gelding operations prior to his successful seasonal/handicap debut at the Dante meeting and returned to York a month ago when he held his own against older opposition (beaten a head); up another 4lb but he's a fast-improving sprinter who won his novice here.

The Man

9st 2lb

J: David Egan

T: Richard Spencer

Wind and gelding operations prior to his seasonal/handicap debut at the Dante meeting here (5f, good to firm) in May, a race in which he proved far too strong for 21 rivals; that race hasn't worked out quite as well as might have been expected and he will need to improve again to defy an 8lb rise; low mileage though and his record suggests a three-month layoff is no bad thing; first run beyond a bare 5f.

April foal; third foal; by Soldier's Call; dam placed 6f-8.4f (including AW; RPR 75), half-sister to German 1m Group 2 winner Electrelane and useful 5f-1m winner Imperialistic Diva (dam of 6f 2yo Group 3 winner Queen Of Bermuda); trainer had few 2yo runners this year but a stablemate finished just ahead of Amerjeet on debut so will have a line on that one; market helpful.

Poorly drawn when down the field over C&D when last seen in October; prior to that she had won well in first-time blinkers at Redcar and she remains of interest from a handicapping perspective.

Responded well to the fitting of blinkers when winning her first handicap at Redcar (5f, good) eight days ago; 3lb rise fair enough and she has run well on Tapeta, but has been handed a duff draw.

Out of triple AW winner at 7f; strong favourite for 5f debut at Wolverhampton where he showed up well but didn't make life easy for his rider by hanging left in third; however, the experience of Tapeta is a plus and the form has been franked by the second's turf win since; good claims.

Nine-race maiden who can be slowly away, but he went very close here (5f) in November and has run okay at Lingfield and Chelmsford the last twice (also 5f); 6f is worth another go and he's not ruled out.

Best effort in eight starts for Robert Cowell when beaten a short head at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) last month, but held at Lingfield (5f, Polytrack) 16 days ago having again given away ground at the start; tongue-tie given a go on stable debut and a better break would be a big help.
