Longstanding maiden who can hang left, underwent wind surgery last autumn and burst a blood-vessel when turned over at a short price early in the year; is capable but has been expensive to follow and comes with risks attached.

Yet to fire this year and has a bit to find with Bohemian Breeze on their meeting here three weeks ago, but he is 12lb lower than when completing a hat-trick around this time last year (first two legs came over C&D); worth a second look.

Landed a hat-trick around this time last year, two of the wins coming over C&D including this race off 4lb higher; needs to improve plenty on recent efforts if he is to exploit this mark, though.

Form & Verdict
Wasn't beaten far at Doncaster last time, switched to a first-time visor, but his best work has come on Tapeta and it's hard to be sure he's up to winning off this mark on turf (Newcastle win in February came off 5lb lower).

In the hands of John Butler when sporting first-time blinkers to score at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February; that's her only success but a keeping-on third here (1m4f, good) was a respectable effort a fortnight ago and this new trip is probably worth a go.

Dual C&D winner, latterly off a 1lb lower mark last summer, who has the visor back on for the first time this year; ran well over hurdles when last seen a month ago and holds decent claims.

All three of her wins on the Flat have been over 1m2f; failed to beat a rival home at Southwell (1m3f, AW) in November but she ran a better race when fifth of 12 at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) 26 days ago; cheekpieces replace the visor but this is the shortest trip she has encountered since July 2023.
