Seems held by Marshman on Newcastle running but may fare better with that reappearance effort under his belt and bearing in mind he has been consistent otherwise for current stable; however, yet to break his Listed/Group duck after many attempts. |

22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
He has done well since dropped to sprint trips, winning two 6f handicaps on AW (one C&D) in January; career best when second over C&D in May and he ran another good race when second in the Gosforth Park Cup eight weeks ago; 1lb lower today and no obvious reason why he wouldn't go well again. |

Won twice over 6f on the AW in January, the latest of those off 9lb lower here; has run well the last twice, including when second of 14 back here (6f) last month, but this is a tough race in which to have his first go at 5f. |

Recent form includes two placed efforts at Southwell but in between he was behind a few of these opponents at Newcastle; nicely weighted on lots of form but long losing run continues. |

26th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Won at Lingfield in December on only previous try over this far, although that's an easy 7f and he just held on; most recently second in 6f Class 4 Southwell handicap; stamina a bit of a question mark but is drawn to save ground. |

Four-time AW winner, mainly over this trip, but he managed to score over the easy 7f at Lingfield (Polytrack) in December; possible to forgive his latest Chelmsford performance and he remains on a workable mark; each-way claims. |

Second in a 5f Listed race here 13 months ago but it's been downhill all the way since then; lowly mark now but he hasn't looked like taking advantage this winter; return to 6f beneficial, at least. |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
On long losing run and he's not posed a threat for some time, but he's very well treated on his best form last year and this is a big drop back in grade; hard to make a solid case but he's one to keep an eye on back up in trip; cheekpieces removed. |

Had a good spell over 6f on the AW early in 2024 and has done just as well back on turf twice since, just failing at Newbury in April and Chester in June (both 6f; good to soft and good); probably needs more off current mark; yard also runs Tacarib Bay. |

Likes York (won this race in 2022 and went close over C&D at the Ebor meeting) and goes well on ground softer than good; only tenth of 25 in the Ayr Gold Cup last time but does not have a great record at that meeting; no surprise if he bounces right back to form on the Knavesmire; tops the list. |

He had been bubbling away nicely prior to enjoying his finest hour in last week's Great St Wilfrid at Ripon (6f, good), digging deep to hold off a smart stablemate; 6lb rise takes him into new territory but he ran well over C&D last month and there could be more improvement lurking. |

Close second in Listed Windsor Castle here as 2yo but well held in the big 5f handicap here last June and his 6f Bahrain win at Christmas didn't go far enough to convince that he's right for this race; others in better form, too, with first-time cheekpieces (retained) no help last time. |
