Made it seventh-time lucky when just getting the better of a subsequent winner on his return from five months off at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) 19 days ago; only 2lb higher and a player on Polytrack debut.

Form & Verdict
Three AW wins in 2024; 0-3 on turf but his run behind a Prescott improver at Newbury (2m, good to firm; off this mark) last July shows he acts on grass; perhaps 2m would have suited better but still competitive.

J: Ryan Moore

Backed up his second at Doncaster by taking a competitive 1m6f handicap at Chelmsford; always in a good position there and battled on for a narrow success; 3lb rise is very fair and he's up to winning on turf.

Slow to hit form this season, and his recent close second at Doncaster (1m6f, good to firm) came in a very tactical race; that said, he remains on a workable mark and will be suited by this return to Polytrack.

Suited by the step up to 1m6f in 2024, winning twice at Sandown (good to firm and good); never involved on AW return but he produced his trademark strong finish when winning at Nottingham recently and looks sure to go well off just 2lb higher, for yard with excellent strike-rate in 2025.

Dual Sandown winner over this trip who didn't look best served by a tactical, small-field affair when turned over at a short price last time; had previously come from off a steady pace to win at Nottingham (off 2lb lower) and goes on the shortlist.

Form & Verdict
Four wins at 1m2f-1m4f in France during 2023 but he made a slow start for this yard in the autumn; however, he travelled well for a long way, albeit in a slowly run race, over 1m4f here a fortnight ago and the way he finished suggested he's worth a go over further; trainer won this last year.

Form & Verdict
Maiden winner in Ireland but Flat career petered out and he seems to have gone off the idea over hurdles after a successful handicap debut for this yard in March 2024 (first-time cheekpieces latest, now blinkers); unlikely he's worth his current mark back on Flat; limited appeal.
