Just one win from his 18 starts but that came off a 2lb higher mark last summer; raced freely on his return to action 16 days ago and dropped away in the straight; likely to last longer today.

On a fair mark on last season's best, including a 5f win at Windsor in June; absent 172 days and he'll need to be cherry ripe to take this.

Form & Verdict
Added to his Wolverhampton win when making all for a 5l success at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) last month; well held at Bath (5.6f classified) next time but he had competition for the lead and remains feasibly treated on his penultimate form; could bounce back again and he's a key player.

Most of his best efforts have come from the front but he just raced in touch when second at Yarmouth (6f) on latest outing, his best show this year; well handicapped if judged on peak 2025 efforts.

Front-runner who got upset in the stalls and was slowly away last time at Wolverhampton; his previous two runs were also below best form and easy lead looks unlikely with Grand Citadel in the field.

Form & Verdict
Shaped with some promise in her three qualifying runs; market springer into 13-2 on recent handicap debut at Yarmouth (5f, good) but was always in rear and finished a remote sixth of eight; still early days and tongue-tie is now added but she needs to leave that latest form well behind.

Best form when coming from off the pace, as when a wide-margin winner at Redcar (5f, good) last month; has possibly found slower surfaces against her since (reared start latest) and considered in a race that's likely to be run to suit.

Maiden who's had his moments at the start and often pulled hard; reared as the stalls opened on his turf comeback and unseated, so can only be considered risky in first-time blinkers.

Still a maiden after 13 starts but he was generally consistent in sprint handicaps last year; returns after five months off but he's well handicapped on his best form and needs a close look back on turf.

Sole win from 18 starts came on her first outing for Michael Keady last February, but she lost her way for that stable and finished last of six in a classified at Lingfield on her debut for this yard 15 days ago; visor replaces cheekpieces.

Recorded an RPR of 70 when winning a C&D handicap last February on her first run for Michael Keady; little to shout about afterwards but she starts out for a new stable (same owner) off a reduced mark; drawn widest but a revival could be imminent.
