Ended a frustrating run of seconds when making all to get off the mark at Pontefract (1m4f, good) 22 days ago; not ideally drawn, particularly for a front-runner, but a possible off this 3lb higher mark.

T: George Baker

The second runner for local trainer George Baker and this one has an enviable 3-4 record here, having picked up two Ladies' Derbys (2024 and 2025) in addition to the Amateurs' Derby last year when trained by Ben Brookhouse; not discounted on that score but this is a good bit hotter than those events; refitted tongue-tie could be a plus.

In the form of his life when winning four in a row for Ben Brookhouse last summer, namely a maiden hurdle followed by three Flat handicaps over 1m2f and 1m4f (twice) on good/good to firm; better effort in Bahrain for George Baker this year when third of seven over 1m2f (good to firm) five weeks ago; returns to Britain on a career-high mark and may prove vulnerable to less-exposed sorts.

J: Mr Paul Hainey

T: B F Brookhouse

Won the 2024 Ladies' Derby at Epsom and repeated the trick when romping away with this year's edition (1m4f, good to firm) in June; completed a hat-trick (first leg was over hurdles) when defying penalty under Paul Hainey at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month and a 4lb rise for that success looks fair; usually sets the pace and he's a big player again in his bid to make it 3-4 over C&D; cheekpieces added.

In good form with blinkers fitted over C&D for this yard this season, winning an apprentice event on reappearance (good to firm) and last time finishing a close second (good to soft; caught last stride) off 4lb higher; up another 2lb; should go well again.

His five wins include two here, the second over this trip on fast ground in May 2024; versatile, though, for his latest win was over 1m1f at Goodwood last month (good to soft) and last run was when fourth over 7.5f here (soft); chance back up in trip.

Only turf win was over 1m2f here in July 2022 (good); has found winning difficult since then although most of his runs have been on the AW; has a 5lb lower turf mark but just a fair turf run at Bath (1m2f) last time; can pull hard and well beaten on only previous try at 1m4f.

0-7; having been gelded and undergone wind surgery he made a promising return/stable debut when third of 16 at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month, but twice held since including when around 5l behind Blueflagflyinghigh at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) nine days ago; switch to blinkers will need to make a difference.

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four (one here) over 2m in 2025; AW has dominated his career; three of his last four turf starts were respectable and he's edging down the weights, so not entirely dismissed.

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW which has dominated his career; best turf ratings two and three runs back before tailed off (might have overdone it up front) at Goodwood latest; again has just four rivals today but others are preferred.
