Form & Verdict
Rallied well for last-gasp win at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in December; has not come close to that form since but he got hampered early on at Kempton last time and is now 5lb lower than for his last win; dangerous if he can rediscover his spark back up in trip.

C&D winner as a 2yo who narrowly doubled his winning tally off 2lb higher at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in December; not the most consistent, but is 1-1 at Class 6 level so it's possible to make a case for him.

Form & Verdict
Went close off 3lb higher at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) in February but his form has nosedived in two subsequent runs; had an excuse in the mud at Thirsk last time but he's not easy to predict and is now 0-25 since his last win in 2022; down the list.

Form & Verdict

Form & Verdict
Made a promising start in handicaps when a 66-1 third at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month but she failed to back that up over 1m at Lingfield (ninth of 11) three weeks ago; still unexposed but has something to prove again after that last run.

Has a patchy record and was tailed off on her turf debut at Bath ten days ago but her win came off a similar mark over C&D in January; comes with risks attached but has possibilities if she can bounce back near best.

Form & Verdict
Seven-race maiden but he ran his best race so far when a staying-on second behind a well-handicapped rival here (7f) four weeks ago; took a strong hold in that race and will need to settle better back up in trip but he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form.
