Form & Verdict
Showed promise when fourth of nine on her 6f Newmarket debut (good to soft) last month but went backwards from than when beaten just over 9l into fourth at Ascot (6f again) 13 days ago, weakening after racing too freely; the drop to 5f shouldn't be an issue.

Won 5f maiden and novice races as a juvenile; seemingly has limitations in Listed races, twice finishing behind Hold A Dream, albeit beaten about only 2l by that one at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) in August when coming from well back last time; another tough task awaits.

Promising 2yo; made a fine return to action last May when second of 12 in a Listed event at Chelmsford (6f); placed at this level on a further three occasions, including when last seen in October; should give another good account for a stable that won this in 2010, 2013 and 2017.

Regressive maiden who didn't look to see out 6f on sole attempt (AW here); too soon to write her off but was below par last time, since when she's been withdrawn once on account of unsuitable (officially good) ground; now tried without the hood for the first time.

Ran well on C&D return in 2025 before winning his next two over 6f, at Leicester (good to firm; made all) and York; his form took a downward turn after but his recent Newbury fourth was a step in the right direction and he's only 2lb higher than for the York win; looks good for a prominent show.

Form & Verdict
Left his Bath debut well behind when second over 6f at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago, worn down late on after hitting the front going well over 1f out; this drop to 5f could help if anything and he can provide his in-form stable with another winner.

Seemingly aided by cheekpieces when runner-up five consecutive times (once here) over 6f in September-January, and last month's 5f fourth at Chelmsford came in a slightly better race than this; worth persisting with over this trip.
