Record of 2-2 on heavy ground but has won on good; didn't get the run of the race here when last seen; productive otherwise in 2024, winning four times, and may have more to offer this term; remains of interest.

Stays 1m and has won over 7f but better known for her 5f exploits and she has only run twice over 6f since October 2021; this represents an ease in grade but she could perhaps do with more help from the handicapper.

Saw off nine rivals at Sandown off this mark last August but he had won at Newmarket the week before and was in peak form; ended 2024 with a low-key run at Doncaster and not sure whether this first run after a break will be the time to catch him.

Won twice on turf last summer (5.2f/5f); seemingly a shade too high in weights on AW afterwards and ran poorly when last in action three weeks ago, but has edged back down to a workable mark and is the only one in this line-up to have run since the autumn.

Has drawn a blank this year but there have been some good efforts, notably a second of 18 at York last month; didn't run badly when fifth at Doncaster one week later but without any obvious excuses; these are calmer waters and he's a C&D winner, so not easily discounted.
