Two modest Flat wins in 2025 but he's 0-7 over hurdles, beaten about 26l in handicaps on last two outings (here latest); hard to fancy.

Well held at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good to firm) last month and now 0-7 over hurdles but was third over that C&D on consecutive outings in July (good/good to firm) and has possibilities if judged on that form.

Dual Flat winner who has produced two encouraging placed efforts over C&D of late; has a bit to find with some of these but should be thereabouts.

Form & Verdict
It took him 29 starts to finally win a race but, having won comfortably at Brighton last month (1m2f, good to soft), he followed up over the same C&D three weeks ago (good to firm); another 7lb higher today but he's thriving and can't be taken on lightly.

Two of his three wins last year came over C&D; ran well here on his penultimate start but failed to back it up last week; others appeal more for win purposes.

Often runs well here but has struggled this year despite a reduced mark; remains best watched; 1lb wrong at the weights.

4 yo Filly

OR: 57

Form & Verdict
Won just one of her 15 starts for Richard Fahey, an 8.6f handicap at Wolverhampton in November 2023; shaped okay on her stable/seasonal debut and could be sharper with that behind her; best turf form on good or slower.

All three wins have been on AW, the latest at Lingfield (1m2f) in August; not in the same form back on turf since, including over C&D, and best to wait until she returns to AW.

Inconsistent mare who made it 0-17 on turf when soundly beaten at Leicester last time; however, she's been placed seven times on grass and has won twice on AW this year; could run well if she's on a going day.

Two wins on the AW since returning in April, the latest on her second start for the yard at Lingfield (1m2f) four weeks ago; 4lb out of the weights, so 7lb higher and faces a tough task against the 3yos.
