Form & Verdict
Record of 0-10 but he was placed on AW in final three runs for Charlie Fellowes; failed to beat a rival on recent stable debut at Wolverhampton (6f) but he ran into some trouble and that was after a break; could bounce back if things go more to plan this time and he's not ruled out in new headgear.

All three wins were gained as a 2yo and she's been out of sorts in her last six starts; mark is tumbling but she's failed to beat a rival on Tapeta in last two runs and has lots to prove for another new yard; first-time cheekpieces replace a visor.

Definite claims on her course fourth in November and her neck second at Newcastle the following month; those efforts came over 6f but she stays 7f; hard to fancy on what's been seen of late but she does at least drop into a 0-65 for the first time.

In fine form at the end of 2024, winning his last five races over 6f, the latest two here; now 23lb higher than the first of them but fair effort off 2lb lower when fourth over 7f at Lingfield ten days ago, not getting the best of runs; well drawn; return to 6f should suit; every chance.
