Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo who won two in a row last winter (1m4f/1m3f, AW) and returned to form when going close in first-time blinkers (retained) at Windsor (1m, good to firm) recently; able to run off 2lb lower today (due to be 6lb higher in future) and can be bang there if confirming that latest promise.

AW wins in the winter came over middle distances and he's been expensive to follow since handicapping; has still to prove he's as good on turf and it could well be all or nothing coming right back in distance in first-time headgear.

Form & Verdict
Won Kempton novice (1m, AW) in April on third start then went close on handicap debut there (1m); beaten 7l when third of seven at York (1m2f, good to soft) latest but may benefit from the drop back in trip and better ground, as well as the first-time visor; remains lightly raced and is in top hands.

Dual winner for the Gosdens (C&D then over 7f in Qatar); uncompetitive of late and this is a deep race in which to try and bounce back; cheekpieces return.

Two wins for the Gosdens, namely a 1m AW novice and a 7f handicap in Qatar; two runs since returning to Europe have been underwhelming though, albeit both have been tough assignments, and Native American may be the stable's main hope.

2yo AW novice winner who was a fair fourth at Haydock (1m, good to firm) on last month's handicap debut; she needs a bigger performance today but this lightly raced 3yo is in good hands to progress and could be involved.

Sole success came over C&D last October; has been running consistently well on turf and she has scope to improve further back on AW; runs without hood worn on last three starts; holds claims.

Delivered on debut promise when winning 8.6f AW novice in the autumn; yet to make any significant progress this year and her tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but she kept on well for third at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) last month and will probably be on the premises again here; tongue-tie removed.

Off the mark at the tenth attempt when making all in Chelmsford maiden (7f, AW) in February; also effective on turf and at 1m; however, he hasn't seriously threatened back in handicaps the last twice and has to raise his game.

1m2f second last year on his only race at Sandown; second off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) on penultimate start was easily the best of his four runs on turf this season but his only win remains an AW maiden.

Looked to be suited by the step back up in trip when runner-up at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, despite not looking at home on the track; may be able to build on that performance today and he's a possible.

Drops back in trip and this may be run at a steady pace, which would probably be against him; however, he won at Pontefract (1m, soft) last month and has continued in good heart; has a very healthy 6-20 strike-rate (various ground) and can go well if things pan out favourably.

Won six for Darryll Holland, most notably when awarded the Spring Mile in March 2025; lost his way thereafter, and Gay Kelleway (0-4) couldn't rejuvenate; joined Jim Goldie for 13,000gns and there were positive signs when third over 1m here (stable debut) recently; is dangerously handicapped.

Form & Verdict
Won with something to spare on debut at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last month and another good run when fourth of 16 under a penalty at Wetherby (7f, good) two weeks ago; brings potential to this handicap debut, for which he wears a first-time hood, and he's one to consider.

Made a pleasing start to his career when winning a Doncaster maiden (7f, good to soft; 7-2) in May, but only fourth under a penalty at Wetherby next time and has since bombed out (last of six) on fast ground at Newmarket (1m; on handicap debut); questions to answer.
