Form & Verdict
Has AW record of 311322 and she hit another personal best when a clear second behind a subsequent winner on her Lingfield reappearance (1m4f) last month; only 1lb higher here and she's a strong contender back at the scene of her last win.

Seen a good deal more often on AW but won the latest of her four turf races, over 11.6f on good ground at Lingfield in June, and that was up with her best form; close second on good to soft last year; looks vulnerable off this mark but 5lb claimer Jack Callan is enlisted.

Acts well on Tapeta, winning at Wolverhampton (1m4f) in November and ran to a similar level over that trip here before Christmas; has had some good results since but C&D run in July wasn't one of them; must revive.

Form & Verdict
Seven-time AW winner and last five have been over C&D; well held at Kempton (1m4f) and Southwell (1m6f) in last two runs but he's now 2lb lower than for his last win in November and has possibilities if he can revive back at this track.

Form & Verdict
Handy sort who has won five times on AW and the first two legs of his hat-trick in February were over C&D; out of sorts in last two AW runs and was down the field on turf last time, but he now drops back in grade and has claims if he can get back near his best.

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four (one here) over 2m in 2025; AW has dominated his career; three of his last four turf starts were respectable and he's edging down the weights, so not entirely dismissed.

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW which has dominated his career; best turf ratings two and three runs back before tailed off (might have overdone it up front) at Goodwood latest; again has just four rivals today but others are preferred.

Won on his debut at Dundalk (7f, AW) in 2020 but he's 0-35 since and has found things tough over jumps and on the Flat in three runs for three different yards this year; passed over.

Sole Flat win (31 attempts) was debut in 2020; had two hurdle wins (2m5f and 2m4f) in 2025 and there have been bits of chase form in recent months; visor returning instead of blinkers might possibly help, but there are more likely candidates.

Posted best effort for these connections when third at Sedgefield in April (2m5f, good), before appearing to find it harder work last time; mixed record over stayers' trips, and would appreciate the ground drying out.

Form & Verdict
Ended a long losing run at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) last month but he couldn't pose threat in his follow-up bid at Lingfield two weeks later; that was a competitive big-field handicap but he needs to step up again after that and he wouldn't want this to be tactical; cheekpieces reapplied.

Creditable third off 9lb higher over C&D on soft ground (acts on good to firm) last September in his only Epsom race; AW campaign in the winter for new yard did not go at all well until he perked up a bit in February on his last two outings; needs to build on that after his break but he's too well handicapped to be ignored.

Struggled early on for this yard (at huge prices) but he was dropped into a Class 6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f) 12 days ago, backed into 11-8 favouritism and duly returned to form, finding only an in-form rival too good; 1lb rise not an issue given what he was capable of last year; key player.

Two wins (1m2f/1m4f) in 2025 for previous yard, but he's raced in the rear and stayed there in all five runs for this trainer; on dangerous mark on this drop back in grade but he needs to rediscover his spark.
