Form & Verdict
0-9 in handicaps and doesn't look solid on his middle-distance form this term; however, gives the impression this return to 1m and addition of blinkers may prove beneficial; interesting off a reduced mark.

J: Toby Moore

T: Gary & Josh Moore

Five-time winner who has been placed in half of his six visits here, including when third in this race in 2024; carries a 5lb penalty for winning at Brighton (1m2f, good to firm) ten days ago but Toby Moore's 7lb claim will aid his bid to go back-to-back; considered.

Goes on any ground; all his handicap wins have been here over 1m (seems to stay 1m2f), the latest in October off this mark; down the field in both races this year but those were after lengthy breaks; hard to dismiss.

J: Tom Queally

T: Gary & Josh Moore

Three wins here (1m, good to firm), most recently in October, immediately raise interest and he stuck at it when third over 1m2f on his final start of last term; quiet reappearance in February probably best ignored and he's worth another go at this trip (tried once two years ago); respected.

Won comfortably after travelling strongly at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month but he's not hit the same level in two subsequent runs; ran respectably back at Leicester last time but he needs to find more to get back on the scoresheet.

Four wins here (three over this trip) and has dropped 2lb below his last winning mark; defied a five-month absence as a 3yo, but his reappearance efforts in the meantime suggest this first start in seven months may be needed.

J: Myla Coppins

T: Tony Carroll

Recorded the 18th win of his long career when leading late over C&D in February (for Myla Coppins); ran well behind a thriving rival at Lingfield next time but he failed to fire over C&D a fortnight ago (finished behind Coloane); he has bounced back from quiet runs before so can't be ruled out.

T: Tony Carroll

18th success of his long career when getting the better of Antiquity (winner since and runs in the 6.00) over C&D last month; bumped into an in-form opponent at Lingfield two weeks ago (7f; blinkered first time); another 2lb rise is not ideal but he is likely to give his running.

J: Myla Coppins

T: Tony Carroll

Well into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of enthusiasm and ran on well to beat a subsequent winner (Age Of Time third) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) three weeks ago, his 18th success; a 2lb rise not excessive but late in the day to be giving blinkers a go (has run well in new headgear before).

All of his handicap form is over middle distances, including course win (off this mark) for previous yard; inconsistent for current stable but last few efforts suggest this return to 1m is worth exploring.

Hard to predict these days and losing run is up to 13, but he had an excuse over 1m5f last time and is now 4lb lower than for his C&D win (good to firm) last summer; could be dangerous back in trip.

Course regular; his latest third (8.6f) was a remote one behind an easy winner but it was still a creditable effort; no sign of age denting his enthusiasm and he should make another bold bid.
