2-2 over C&D, making the most of a favourable mark when winning in good style last month; now 6lb higher but still much respected under conditions that suit him so well.

Took advantage of a sliding mark round Lingfield in the winter (last four wins come there but is fine on Tapeta); off the boil since and this is a bit tougher; would want to see some support tonight.

In good form at Lingfield during the winter and is a bit of specialist over 6f there (112121), but he has won over this C&D; latest Kempton effort not hard to forgive given his record at that track and could easily bounce back; shortlisted.

In good form at Lingfield lately and has become a bit of a specialist over 6f there (112121); it's a different story here (8770) and that would be the concern.

Losing run up to 19, but has made the frame in his last four starts over 5f here; won twice over C&D off marks in the 80s at the start of 2023 and looks interesting back up in trip.

Has form on good to firm but 0-15 on grass as opposed to 5-29 on AW; short of his best on AW of late and others bring more convincing claims.

Consistent on Tapeta during the winter including two wins at Wolverhampton (5f), but he failed to beat a rival there nine days ago; stays at least this far but has something to prove now.

Well suited by a left-hand turn, winning twice here over 5f last summer; promising seasonal return at Catterick (6f, good) but he wasn't in the same form at Musselburgh (5f, good) nine days ago; handy draw and he can't be discounted.

Five wins, all around a left-hand bend (5f-5.5f), in a productive 2025 campaign; his near miss on 6f Catterick reappearance (good) last Wednesday suggests he's unlikely to be long in opening his account for 2026; same mark today.

Five wins, all around a left-hand bend (5f-5.5f; has form over much further), in a productive 2025 campaign; effective at this track and not impossibly treated returning from 170 days off; one to consider.

Form & Verdict
Narrowly won three races in 2023, the last two over 7f including one here; 15lb below last winning mark and ran well when fourth of 12 over C&D in November, but his record fresh suggests this first start in 112 days may be needed.

Held off the late finishers to notch his second C&D win (11-2; from 3lb lower) on penultimate start; respectable effort (sixth) over 6f at Wolverhampton latest; Jack Callan's 5lb claim may aid the cause from a handicapping perspective.
