J: Joe Leavy

T: Richard Hannon

British form figures 2221321; returned from a slightly less productive stint in Dubai to narrowly edge out Sergeant Pep in a 7f Class 4 at Lingfield (13-8 favourite) ten days ago; with consistency being his forte, he should be one the premises once again from just 2lb higher.

Progressive for new stable since the spring, with two of his three good-ground wins gained over C&D; not discredited when third of four here last month and ought to make his presence felt.

3-5 over hurdles for current stable since March, the latest win gained in C&D (good) handicap two months ago; did that in pretty good style and subsequent 4lb rise does not look excessive; commands respect.

Herculeus

Dual turf scorer off higher marks last term; not particularly solid on 2026 form and still has something to prove on AW and over 7f; campaigned mostly over 1m.

Inconsistent since his two turf wins in 2025; however, posted one of his better efforts in C&D contest last time and is comparatively unexposed on AW; could go well off a reduced mark.

Won twice at around 1m on turf last year; ended that campaign with two lesser efforts and he hasn't found his best in three runs this year; opposable despite his slipping mark.

155,000euros foal, 135,000gns breeze-up 2yo by Invincible Spirit; second foal; dam unraced half-sister to winners Aunt Julia (useful 1m2f), Ucandri (multiple French 9.5f-12.5f) and Rainbow Zest (1m1f), out of unraced half-sister to 1m4f Listed winner; yard (light on 2yo wins this term) also had an interesting newcomer in the first division.

J: Ray Dawson

T: Ruth Carr

Went close at Yarmouth (1m, soft) on his final start for George Boughey and can have a line put through his stable debut here over 7f having lost his position when hampered; 3-5 on the AW and can't be dismissed.

3-4 on the AW and was only beaten a neck at Yarmouth (1m, soft) last time; makes his stable debut after 78 days off having changed hands for 20,000gns last month, but a stiffer test than this may suit him better now.

Classified debutante who still needs to prove her 40-1 success in first-time blinkers at Kempton (1m) wasn't a fluke; finished last in both starts since (lost her action latest).

Off the mark (13th attempt) in a 1m handicap at Kempton last month but she finished last of nine there ten two weeks later; has something to prove again after that and she comes with risks attached back up in trip.

Prevailed narrowly to open her account in C&D contest two weeks ago on third start for new yard, taking well to first-time blinkers; may have more to offer in the retained headgear; respected up just 2lb.
