Form & Verdict
Progressive for Charlie Fellowes last year, winning twice, and made an encouraging reappearance when sixth of 13 at Thirsk (7f, good; raced freely, lost three places inside final 1f) two weeks ago; dropping back in distance looks a sensible move and he still has untapped potential; big chance.

Front-runner who scored three times in 2024; all those wins came over 7f but he seems just as effective at 6f and he has a good record here; shaped well over an inadequate 5f at Beverley on reappearance and that run should have blown away the cobwebs; not fully exposed and should go well.

J: Warren Fentiman

All three wins from 36 starts have been on the AW at Newcastle (6f/1m); solid effort when third at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last month but he needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract (1m) three weeks ago; has stamina to prove for this longer trip.

Has a record of 6-9 since wearing a hood; the wins have come on the AW but he showed he's just as effective on turf with creditable fourth of eight at Musselburgh two weeks ago; 7f might have stretched his stamina that day and he's a big player returned to sprint distances.
