J: Duran Fentiman

T: Martin Dunne

Can lead; on a tempting mark relative to past turf form but he's 0-7 on the AW and has been well beaten since only just failing against Arlington over C&D in January; couldn't count on refitted blinkers, replacing a visor, returning him to form.

J: Duran Fentiman

T: Martin Dunne

Triple turf winner who is 0-6 on AW surfaces; went close over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time tongue-tie and visor combination) but was well beaten without the visor back here latest; visor now returns but hard to be confident of another better effort.

Three turf wins for previous yard; 0-4 for current stable but went very close in visor over C&D most recently; possibilities, provided he's in similar form with the headgear removed.

Form & Verdict
Five-time sprint winner on a sound surface and, although running well, he was unable to peg back two more forwardly ridden rivals at Ayr last time; claims if the leaders go off quickly.

Without a win since last season's Portland handicap at Doncaster (good) off this very mark; races prominently and rallied for second here last time; clear claims, for all that she's one of a few who might want to be up there early.

J: Lauren Young

T: Jim Goldie

Won last season's Portland handicap at Doncaster off a 1lb higher mark; she made a slow start to 2026 but there have been encouraging signs more recently, fourth at Ayr (6f, soft) and then second at Doncaster (5f, good to firm); form dipped here (5f, good to firm) two weeks ago; could bounce back.

Had slipped in the weights and returned to winning ways dropped to 5f when scoring narrowly over C&D last week; 3lb badly in under penalty but can't rule out.

2-3 at this venue, the defeat coming over C&D last week when fourth to Parisiac having missed the break (usually starts quickly); closely matched with that rival on these terms and could run well.

T: Adrian Nicholls

Four-time course winner, most recently off a 15lb higher mark last August; has mostly struggled since but she was sparked up by first-time blinkers when beaten a neck at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) eight days ago; has to be respected off the same mark.

J: Jack Nicholls

T: Adrian Nicholls

Prolific winner down the years, including over C&D last summer, who's regressed sharply in recent times; a few years since she ran at this low a level and that should help, but it will largely hinge on how she responds to wearing headgear for the first time.

Had the run of the race when just touched off by a strong-finisher at Chepstow last week and, she's not without a chance, despite being 3lb out of the weights (due to go up that much from the weekend).

8yo who is without a win since October 2023 and has finished soundly beaten in Class 5 handicaps on her last two starts; however, before those she went close in one at Chepstow in May and if rediscovering that form she'll be very tough to beat now dropped into a classified.
