Won this year at Lingfield (7f, AW) and Sandown (1m, good) in two of his five handicaps; the latter was an amateurs' race under Fletcher Yarham; tongue tied when below form on latest outing, so he isn't today; going beyond 1m for the first time gives him a fair bit to prove but having Motivator as the dam's sire gives some hope.

Three-time winner for George Boughey last year, latterly in a seller; has struggled over hurdles for this yard (past twice in cheekpieces) and returns to the Flat weighted to her best; needs a major revival.

Developed into fairly useful Flat racer for George Boughey in 2024 (three wins); soundly beaten in all five hurdle races for new stable this year, the last twice in handicaps, but heavy ground would not have suited on her latest outing (first-time cheekpieces) and there is still hope she can transfer some of that Flat ability to this code; watch the betting.

Five-time winner (1m1f-1m4f) for several stables over the years, back on track of late with successes at Goodwood and Brighton; again well handled by Sarah Bowen when coming from last to first three weeks ago; this is more competitive but he's thriving right now and another to consider.

8yo who went 21 months without a win but has now scored at Windsor, Lingfield, Chepstow and Ripon in his four races this turf season; his second in this race last year was a remote one and the 6lb rise since his latest start asks a question, but conditions fine and he's on a major roll, ridden by Sarah Bowen on last two starts (two in four days); major player.

Frequent slow starter who's enjoyed a revival since returned to turf, minus the tongue-tie and headgear; looked to have a bit more in hand than the final margin at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm) off 3lb lower last time and holds obvious claims.
