Won off this mark at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) last October but hasn't got going in four runs this year, beating only one rival; needs to show more.

C&D winner; had a good time of things in 2025, winning four times; she has finished last in her three AW runs this year and has only dropped 3lb; may need some more help from the handicapper.

J: Pat Cosgrave

T: Lisa Williamson

Won at her beloved Yarmouth (5f, good to soft; from 4lb lower) last October; hasn't been at her best since returning to AW recently; this is a fraction easier and she could strip fitter but others are more appealing.

Form & Verdict
Running well on turf for new yard this summer, winning twice at Brighton (5.5f, good and good to firm); another solid effort at that track four weeks ago and capable of a big run back down in class; unraced on slower than good so significant rain would be a query.

J: Andrew Mullen

Flexible regarding the going; had mixed results since winning at Pontefract (5f, soft) last October, but he wasn't far away after making the running at Ripon recently and is now 2lb lower than that last winning mark; probably needs a bit more.

J: Andrew Mullen

Well backed when winning a 5f handicap at Pontefract (soft) last October but hasn't matched that since, including beating only one home over C&D three weeks ago; back on the mark he defied at Pontefract but would need to see money for him again.

Form & Verdict
Only fifth of six at Windsor on his reappearance/handicap debut in July (5f, good to firm); that was a fair race though and he could take a step forward with that experience behind him.

2-30 overall, with the second win in a classified at Bath (5.7f, good) early last month; ran moderately under the same 7lb claimer at Brighton two weeks ago and may need his best run since last May.

Just 2-29, but comes into this off the back of a win in a similar event at Bath (5.7f, good); not the most reliable but a player if in the same form; stable also runs Washington Heir.

Beaten 2l into sixth at Sandown on Friday (5f, good), her second run for this stable; talented apprentice takes off a handy 3lb and she could take another step forward this afternoon.

Won a Brighton maiden (5.5f, good) in first-time cheekpieces last year; those aids were absent until posting creditable thirds behind Snow Berry (good; 22-1) in June and Gypsy Nation (also C&D, good to firm) a fortnight later; handicapper continues to relent and she can't be dismissed.

Generally struggled in handicaps for current stable; perhaps sharper for last month's Beverley return and she's dropped another 3lb since; still asking a lot of the new cheekpieces to turn things around though.
