Form & Verdict

Encouraging seventh of 24 at Royal Ascot last month in first-time tongue-tie (retained since) and got up in final stride at Beverley (8.4f, good) 12 days ago; she's up just 2lb for last time and Newmarket trainer is 5-15 (33%) here; can be bang there if conditions suit (unproven on slow ground).

Form & Verdict

Beaten on all 13 starts since consecutive 2yo wins in 2022 (good/good to soft) but he's run well in defeat on two of his last three starts and drops back down in grade this afternoon; capable of having a big say.

Form & Verdict

Returned to form and capitalised on a reduced mark at York (1m1f, good to soft) last month, and another good run when third over this C&D (good) last time; drops back down in grade and has won here twice; solid claims.

Form & Verdict

Won three times last year (1m, good to soft/soft) and reappeared with a promising second at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago; could build on that latest performance today and he's one to consider.

Form & Verdict

Two wins for James Ferguson (1m/9.4f) and caught the eye when keeping on for fourth at Ayr (1m, good) on last month's stable debut; took backward step when 4l sixth of six at Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) last time but today's trip at this stiff course could prove ideal; has run well on slow ground.
