In good form in the latter part of 2023 on the AW and showed the benefit on her comeback run in May when a respectable fourth of nine over C&D this month; back on her most recent winning mark and likely to give a good account.

Quirky veteran who's always reliant on some luck given her run style; landed a fifth win here when going in over C&D for Myla Coppins last month and may get this run to suit; player.

Form & Verdict
Winner off 2lb higher over 5.7f (firm) here around this time last year; that came after a recent outing and her reappearance fourth behind So Smart over C&D this month was promising; big player with that run behind her.

Form & Verdict
Only the two wins from 37 attempts but ended a barren spell when back to form over C&D this month with cheekpieces and tongue-tie refitted; remains well treated off a 3lb rise and likely player if in the same form with the tongue-tie retained.

J: Ray Dawson

Turned in an excellent effort when winning the corresponding race from stall 1 (14 ran) last May, flying out of the stalls and able to get to the stands' rail after one furlong; also won at Ffos Las in July and both victories were achieved off a higher mark than today's; not at best last time but his reappearance had been encouraging; should make a bold bid.

Six course wins to his name, the latest coming in May off 5lb lower for a 7lb claimer (5.7f); not beaten far behind So Smart over C&D 17 days ago and needs considering on the revised terms.

Form & Verdict
Narrowly opened his account at Windsor (5f, good to firm) in May; not in the same form at Nottingham off a 5lb rise this month but would have finished closer granted a clearer passage in a Class 5 back at Windsor two weeks ago; back down in class and respected off 1lb lower.

Ran a big race in defeat when dropped back to 5f at Ripon (good; refitted cheekpieces) on penultimate start but was disappointing when finishing last of ten at Windsor (just under 4l behind Inspired Knowhow) 14 days ago when tried in a visor (retained); needs to leave that run behind but he's respected on his Ripon second.

Kicked off the season with back-to-back 5f wins at Wolverhampton and Pontefract before being run down by Vince L'Amour over C&D (Hurt You Never third) next time; nowhere near those same levels at Pontefract (ninth of ten) latest, so needs to bounce back.

He has returned from a six-month break in rude health, winning at Wolverhampton and over C&D (second C&D success) last month and running well in his hat-trick bid at Ripon a fortnight ago; wide draw not ideal for a front-runner but he isn't handicapped out of things; trainer also runs Jojo Rabbit.

Returned from six months off with a win at Wolverhampton and he followed up with another narrow success at Pontefract (5f, good) 17 days ago; 3lb higher than for his front-running win last time but remains feasibly treated and is tactically versatile; key player for yard that won this in 2023 and 2025.
