9st 7lb |
Only 12th at Ayr (6f) two runs back but running well otherwise and came from behind off a strong pace to win here last night over 5f; has the penalty but as big a worry is that she's 0-7 beyond 6f. |

Multiple turf/AW winner who is a bit better than he was able to show at Catterick last time (wide trip); yet to win at this venue in 12 attempts, though. |

Infrequent winner; good second over C&D in June (soft) and fair runs since, latest with a visor (on again); well drawn; each-way chance. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
10st 0lb |
0-21 since winning in 2021 on third start but she's been running really well this season and was beaten just a neck at Ayr (6f, good) last time in first-time blinkers; switches to a visor today and can be bang there. |
5/1 |

Beaten 20 times since winning a Leicester novice as a 2yo; series of good runs in defeat this year, including C&D, and she won't mind what the weather does; solid form claims with blinkers now added. |

22nd Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |

Low-key stable debut at Southwell 11 days ago; dropped 3lb and appeals as the type to pop up at some point soon; perhaps that will be when dropping into Class 6 company though. |

9th 7 (5) |
11th Mar 2025 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Well treated now and three Newcastle runs to end 2024 didn't see him to best effect; should find this being run to suit and he's interesting on first run for a new yard (same owner). |
20/1 |
|
8th 1 (10) |
17th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well-handicapped C&D winner; not at his best in two runs back on AW this winter but this is an ease in grade and Paul Mulrennan's return to the saddle (a win and a close third in two rides on him) catches the eye; should get a good pace to aim at and he's high on the list. |

9st 6lb |
The winner of 11 races, three of them at this track; two good runs last month, including a Catterick success, but he was a shade disappointing at Carlisle last time; should make another bold bid here and drying ground will be in his favour. |
5/1 |

6th 10 (5) |
29th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Knows how to get his head in front (11 wins) and has been going well on good to firm ground this month, winning at Catterick (6f) and going down by a short head over this C&D; 1lb well in, but all six turf wins have come on good or faster ground so rain could be a problem. |

Has a useful record over C&D (one win and three seconds from six attempts) and comes here on the back of a creditable fourth at Doncaster 12 days ago; better off with the winner Raft Up here but he was over 3l adrift. |

9st 3lb |
Infrequent winner; ended 2024 quietly but she's run respectably on turf the last twice, beaten under 3l over the extended mile here last week; should be fine over the extra furlong but others appeal more for win purposes. |
