Bang-in-form 4yo who was always doing enough to hold on at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) last month and has now won three of his last four; latest 3lb rise does not look excessive; commands respect.

Three wins in the first half of 2025 and latest was off 1lb higher over C&D; returned after wind surgery with a promising effort in a Class 4 here (7f, good to firm) last month and he looks interesting on this drop back in grade.

Largely consistent 7yo who has made the frame on all four appearances this year (6f/7f); 6f may suit him better than 7f but he benefits from Jack Callan's useful 7lb claim today and can make his presence felt again.

Led on the post off today's mark at Kempton (7f, AW) last month; both subsequent 1m turf runs were perfectly respectable and today's drop back in trip will suit but he'd appeal more on an artificial surface.

1-18 strike-rate and down the field at York last Saturday (6f, good; reportedly never travelling); however, prior to that she was a close third on reappearance at Haydock (7f, good to soft) and a good case can be made on that form; effective on good to soft; could bounce back with big run.
