Form & Verdict
Warm favourite when upped in trip in November for her two handicaps and she duly showed markedly improved form, winning readily at Chelmsford (1m) and by 5l at this track (8.6f) four days later; another 11lb higher today but she still makes appeal and should stay.

Form & Verdict
0-6 for William Haggas; better in his three AW races for new yard, going close from well off the pace over C&D on penultimate start and getting off the mark in seven-runner handicap at Southwell (1m) on latest; up 3lb but should get seriously involved again.

Ex-William Haggas; bought for 17,000gns in September; two sound efforts in AW nurseries since, finishing clear second over this C&D on first occasion and last time coming out best of the off-the-pace horses when a closing 0.5l third in a moderately run affair at Wolverhampton; should go well again.

3 yo Colt

Form & Verdict
Wore cheekpieces on the last three of his seven races; easily his most competitive display came when 50-1 over C&D on latest, beaten a length and a half in fourth but Patrol finished strongly to take third from him; probably vulnerable again for win purposes.

Form & Verdict
Ran in two maidens for Peter Chapple-Hyam and two novice events at huge prices for this yard, all over 7f; gelded since; plenty of stamina on the dam's side, so this move up in trip should suit on handicap debut; has some ability but others bring more solid claims.

Form & Verdict
Hooded and held up these days; more competitive and better form since switched to Tapeta from turf, including last-gasp win at Southwell (7f) in December; caught the eye with her attempt to come from a long way back over 8.6f here 12 days ago, so she remains one to be interested in.

Form & Verdict
Went on in the final 1f to make a winning handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m) in October; led until the post at Southwell (1m) next time, another improved effort, and trying to come from last did not pan out ideally when respectable third of five here (8.6f) three weeks ago; not much further to go this time and he needs respect.
