25th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won over 1m on reappearance at Bath and has run respectably on four of last five outings; no reason why he shouldn't give a good account. |
4/1 |

2 (1) |
20th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made all to make a winning handicap debut at Bath in June (1m, good); not used that as a springboard to better things and he wasn't at his best last time but no doubt he has the ability to feature. |
4/1 |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Resumed with 1m victory at Bath in June and largely in good form since, fifth of eight in 1m2f Ffos Las handicap 26 days ago; he ought to be thereabouts once more. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 7y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Displayed a dark side when virtually refusing to race at Southwell on his seasonal/stable debut (also first run after gelding and wind operations) but he left that behind when a major eyecatcher at Chelmsford five weeks ago, held up under restraint but making a notable move in the fourth furlong, only for those exertions to take their toll late on; should be capable of better and while there is a slight concern he might fluff the start again, he's an intriguing contender against exposed opposition. |
8/1 |

3rd 5 (4) |
12th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well held in three runs for Craig Lidster last year and he virtually refused to race on recent handicap/stable at Southwell (first run after wind/gelding operations); has plenty to prove on several counts and can only be watched at present. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 16y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
12-race maiden making his seasonal/stable debut following nine-month absence; down to a career-low mark but probably best watched for now. |
16/1 |
|
9th 6 (5) |
9th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 160y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
11-race maiden who isn't progressing; has run well over C&D on a couple of occasions this year but he looks opposable on balance. |
12/1 |
|
8th 7 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Ten-race maiden; three good runs from four attempts for his new stable but he will need to pull out extra if he is to break his duck. |

2nd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Wolverhampton winner (6f, AW; first-time tongue-tie) in February and not beaten far when fifth of eight at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) last time, but she refused to race in both intended starts prior to that so comes with risks attached. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (4) |
15th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on the AW in February and is on a workable mark if able to transfer that form to turf, but she refused to race on consecutive appearances last month and comes with very obvious risk attached. |

21st May 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
One-paced when it mattered over 7f here back in February; sensible on that basis to return to the trip of her best effort to date, on which piece of form she looks realistically treated for handicaps, too. |

19th Feb 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 6lb |
Two runs for Sir Mark Todd, faring better when fourth at Lingfield last month (1m); prominent for a long way on that occasion and she has achieved the most of those with experience; stable debut (same owners). |

Verdict
This looks a good opportunity for SUNDIATA KEITA, who sets a clear standard on his close third at Newcastle two weeks ago and is open to more progress. The pick of the opposition could be Sun Keeper, who ran as though she needed the experience over C&D last month and looks a likely improver on her second start.[David Moon]
