Regressive 5yo who has been unplaced all six starts for new stable this year; seemed to respond well to first-time blinkers when fourth at Chester (5f, good) last month, having set a brisk pace, but was well below that form (albeit from a wider draw) there three weeks ago. |

11-time turf winner who won by 4l at Lingfied in July but he's been a long way below that form in three subsequent runs; this return to 6f is no problem but he needs a major revival on belated Tapeta debut; blinkers reapplied. |

C&D winner in 2022, with no joy from nine subsequent visits but most of those were over shorter, whereas his last four wins (elsewhere) have been at about 7f; he's now 1lb lower than when making all at Beverley last September and a case can be made. |

Best RPRs over shorter (6f) but did make all in a slowly run C&D Class 4 in January (4-1); failed to get majorly competitive - often slowly away - in his last three starts; return to AW might assist, along with Ethan Tindall's 5lb claim. |

Three heavy defeats at big prices in 6f handicaps at York this summer; easy to write off this 11yo on that evidence but he comes alive at Newmarket (six wins and three placed efforts from 14 visits) and he is 9lb lower than when a close third behind Spring Bloom and Dashing Dick in this race last year; revival would come as no surprise. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 3 |

Trouble in running on both AW starts last month and same story at Pontefract last time, in the circumstances doing well to finish eighth of 13 from 4lb out of the handicap; he has a good record at Pontefract but could play a leading role off his proper mark today if getting the breaks. |

Thrives here - form figures 72111 - twice accounting for Vince Le Prince over 7f last month; weakened at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago, but this track is a much better fit, and he's unlikely to be hindered by rain; still fairly treated off 67 based on historic form. |

Winless since October 2024; form figures of 223 here through December (6f/7f) suggested he was near to ending that barren sequence; however, his latest effort (eighth) was a step backwards, leaving this 9yo stablemate of True Promise work to do against Dandy Magic; easing mark. |
