Veteran who hasn't won as often as he should for one of his undoubted ability; on a reduced mark now and last Sunday's run, his first for 173 days, should have freshened him up; others look stronger for the win. |

Won twice on turf last summer (5.2f/5f); seemingly a shade too high in weights on AW afterwards and ran poorly when last in action three weeks ago, but has edged back down to a workable mark and is the only one in this line-up to have run since the autumn. |

13th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Turned in a career-best effort when winning a C&D handicap by daylight two weeks ago; that race set up well for her, able to stalk the freewheeling leader before running on strongly in the closing stages; a 6lb rise asks a stiffer question but Rossa Ryan retains the ride and she's not discounted. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time AW winner who got off the mark on turf at the 14th attempt, at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) on Monday; also effective on good to soft; she won that four-runner handicap in fine style and is entitled to respect under a 5lb penalty, but today's company is more demanding. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (3) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |

Triple AW winner who is 0-13 on turf but she's run respectably at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) and Nottingham (5f, good) in her last two runs; returns after another short break but she's generally reliable and shouldn't be far away. |

0-7 on AW but she has been placed in her last four starts, most recently when a never-dangerous third behind Secret Mistral here two weeks ago; on a dangerous mark but the change of headgear needs to give her a lift. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Won on reappearance at Yarmouth in April and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and he needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces. |

17th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |

26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

All wins at 5f, one of them here at last year's Dante meeting, and he's on the same mark as when making a successful return at Yarmouth in April (5f, good to firm); best produced late off a strong pace at 5f though and his 6f form is unconvincing. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Has improved with each of his three runs this season and was a close third of 18 off this mark at York (5f, good to firm) last time, when denied a clear run; also effective on soft ground; could play another leading role. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 17 (3) |
27th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Just 1-15 on the Flat but he's well handicapped on last year's best and his latest run over C&D saw him travel powerfully and run with more credit than the bare figures might indicate; should get the end-to-end gallop he needs at 5f; one to consider. |
