4 yo Colt

Form & Verdict
His record over C&D reads 3111, the latest win coming in February off an 8lb lower mark; the handicapper has been in command more recently but he's well drawn to attack and the return to this track could prompt another surge of improvement.

J: Joe Fanning

T: Charlie Johnston

Fine on Tapeta but has done most winning round Chelmsford, always over 1m2f; generally consistent in recent times, without looking quite as good, and has to prove his stamina going beyond 1m4f for the first time; the usual headgear comes off.

Much more exposed than some of these and usually runs over 1m2f but gave pretty good account when fourth in valuable Chelmsford handicap (1m2f) a fortnight and is 1lb lower here; could have a say.

T: Charlie Johnston

Formerly a front-runner but more often held up these days; finished a 4l seventh at Wolverhampton in last two starts but he's 5-9 at Chelmsford and was runner-up over C&D in June; has possibilities back at this track and he needs a close look with Hollie Doyle booked.

Form & Verdict
Five wins when trained by Ralph Beckett, the last of them off a 4lb higher mark last July; bleak start for this yard but he bounced back to form when second in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar ten days ago (1m2f, soft); if, and there has to be a doubt given his overall profile, he can back it up then he's a key player off the same mark.

Disappointed when last in action and remains on a losing streak but competes off new career-low mark here and will be suited by the trip-and-surface combination; hooded for first time; can't be ruled out.

No win since taking a Class 2 at Sandown (1m2f) in July 2023; kicked off 2025 with a pleasing AW effort at Newcastle (runner-up from 4lb higher) but unable to build positively on that since; latest 1m4f Ripon third (Haptics sixth) respectable but the wait for another win may go on.

Form & Verdict
Without a win since October 2021 but some of last year's form gives him the look of a well-handicapped horse; recorded an RPR of 102 when third at Kempton one year ago, his last run on AW, and if he's in anything like that form he'll be heavily involved; too free at Newmarket on his return last month; risky but capable.

Down the field in last season's Wood Ditton but he returned from 349 days off to win a 1m maiden at Kempton in good style in April; backed that up with a solid third under a penalty at Wolverhampton later that month; up in trip for handicap debut and still has potential for better.

Beaten a neck at Kempton (1m4f) on penultimate start and went one better at Windsor (11.4f) 12 days later, his first win for over two years; acts on Tapeta; back up another 2lb but in the mix if that form is repeated.

The winner of three of his five AW starts, including at this track, and he comes here chasing a hat-trick; up in trip and class but still hasn't reached his ceiling and he's a strong contender.

Huge success story for the yard in the 2022-23 AW campaign, winning seven times and rising 40lb up the weights; absent for 11 months and he's struggled this year so is risky, despite a reduced mark.
