9st 6lb |
Won three of his five races; flopped on fourth start but scored pretty smoothly in 1m handicap at Haydock (last two wins have been there) four weeks ago and remains of major interest despite 8lb rise. |

8st 12lb |
Won Ayr maiden (1m, good) in April on second run and followed up in handicap here (1m2f, good to firm) in June; he flopped at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) on July 1 but retains potential for his in-form yard; not ruled out. |

Promising debut (Tapeta) and, after winning a weak Ayr maiden, took another good step forward on his handicap debut early last month (1m2f); today's return to 1m is perhaps not optimal but he remains open to further improvement upped 6lb. |

Won at Newmarket (1m, good) in May on second start and sixth of 14 in hot novice on the other course there in June (1m, good to firm); gelded since and this well-bred 3yo has potential off his opening mark; top yard in flying form. |

8-40 on turf and was making a belated AW debut when a creditable fifth of 13 here (7f) 12 days ago (Chalk Mountain second); has winning form over this far and could play a part if building on that effort. |

Won a useful event at Chelmsford in December (1m) and comes here on the back of a good second at Kempton nine days ago; not quite so good over C&D in between those two runs though and others look stronger. |

19th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Enjoying a new lease of life as a miler, winning at Newmarket last summer and adding a good Chelmsford handicap to his tally in December; couldn't pose a major threat at Lingfield last month but he was only beaten around 2l and he should get a decent tow into this race; in the mix. |

It all clicked at York in July (1m, good to firm) when getting up late in the day; not in the same form since but he's capable of bouncing back. |

Two wins on turf/Polytrack for Roger Teal last year and 16lb lower than for the latest, but six runs since returning for this yard in June have yielded little; best watched until showing a bit more sparkle. |

Has dropped 11lb below his last winning mark, but five starts for this yard since returning in June raise serious doubts as to whether he can exploit it; stamina is also an issue. |

Knocking at the door for his new yard this year, third at Wolverhampton before chasing home Legal Reform (runs in the first division) over C&D; another creditable effort at Lingfield last time; each-way shout. |

5-34 on turf; has had just five AW races, three of them this winter and he's been placed on Tapeta on last two occasions; place chance if he's as good on this Polytrack debut. |

Back to winning ways at Southwell (1m) in November; best run since when close third over 9.4f at Wolverhampton ten days ago; the drop back to 1m looks ideal and Billy Loughnane takes the ride so there are reasons to be very hopeful from the same mark; also has first-time blinkers in place of cheekpieces. |

17th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 3 |

9st 11lb |
String of short-priced defeats, blowing out as often as not, since winning a novice at 1-7 as a 3yo; maybe the return of the hood will help, down another 3lb, but his three previous runs on Tapeta were poor and he has it all to prove now. |

12th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Easiest winner of a novice you'll ever see at three; gone backwards in handicaps and was a bitterly disappointing 2-1 favourite when behind Turner Girl 11 days ago; can only watch; hood removed. |
11/2 |

1st Feb 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |

Sole success when beating three rivals by upwards of 20l in a Hamilton novice (1m4f, good; 1-7) as a 3yo, but has become disappointing since; 17lb lower than when first handicapping but still hard to warm to back up in trip. |
