5f novice winner for Ed Walker and also ran well in handicaps for that yard, including over C&D; made a winning stable debut at Wolverhampton last month and he should remain competitive despite a 4lb rise.

On a losing run but was only beaten 4l last time at Southwell (5f) in a race won by Naana's Sparkle who was second at Goodwood on Tuesday; hasn't had many chances over this longer trip and he has been running on at the minimum.

Form & Verdict
Threw away a winning opportunity by hanging badly right on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton in January but she's raced near the stands' rail at Newcastle and Southwell since and beat another hugely progressive sprinter in good fashion on both occasions; up 7lb in a stronger race but she looks the type to hold her own in better company.

Front-runner; two 5f wins on AW; 0-8 on turf but she didn't go down by much when third at Hamilton (5f, good) this month; she produced a much weaker finish there since, though, and her stamina will be tested on this stiffer track; yard won this in 2025.

Form & Verdict
Looked an extremely difficult ride on his first two starts but he was gelded afterwards and has looked a different proposition this winter, third at Kempton (6f) before two front-running 5f wins at Newcastle and here; hit with a 12lb rise for the latest success and he'll need to improve again to make a winning handicap debut.

Started off for Lemos De Sousa with two encouraging AW runs in the spring (5f/6f) and can be excused this month's turf defeat (suffered interference); would appeal more on ground slower than good but has slipped to a tempting mark and may be aided by the refitted blinkers.
