Form & Verdict
Won at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) last month and he didn't get much luck back at 1m there (fourth of ten) last week; now steps up to this new trip but he has an emphatic course win (1m4f) on his CV and could be a big factor if his stamina holds out.

Five turf wins, most recently at Ffos Las (1m6f, good to soft; other wins on good or quicker) in July 2024; suffered two heavy defeats this year but refitting regular cheekpieces could make a difference.

Five wins include two on this course, over 1m4f (good) and 1m6f (good to soft); handicapper has given him a chance and he should come on for a remote third of four here in July following a layoff; form chance.

Seven-race maiden (1m-1m5f), who not finished closer than 7l to a winner; cheekpieces didn't seem to work when a remote third at Carlisle (1m3f, soft) in May and he looks opposable off same mark here.

Well held on her Kempton debut in January and she's finished tailed off at massive prices in two runs (1m2f/1m3f) since; this unexposed 4yo now switches to a handicap but she needs a transformation upped to this trip.

Dual winning mare (2m, AW) but she was running poorly when last seen in the autumn; nothing wrong with this mark if the break has recharged her batteries but this is a rare turf outing and probably doesn't want too much rain.

Form & Verdict
Sole win was in June 2022 but he's well treated on old form and has rallied to finish a respectable fourth in his two runs (1m5f/1m4f) this season; seems fairly versatile ground-wise and he could get involved on this step back up in trip.
