Five turf wins at around 1m (good/good to firm), the latest off this mark at Leicester in May; not at his best on last two starts but he could go well in a modest event.

Gained second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and has continued in good form, refitted in cheekpieces when fourth of seven at Musselburgh (1m) 16 days ago; that form has been franked so he can go well again.

3 yo Colt

OR: 75

Form & Verdict
Won handicaps at Kempton and Leicester in April before posting an eyecatching third of 12 in a Newcastle handicap (7f, AW) when not enjoying the smoothest of passages; latest run at Lingfield can probably be ignored, when not much went right; trip should be fine and he'll likely bounce back under his promising apprentice Elizabeth Gale.

J: Billy Loughnane

Last year's heroics were always going to be a tough act to follow but the addition of cheekpieces, allied to a reduced mark, have seen an upturn in his fortunes since June; latest Windsor second (1m, good to firm; stable debut) wasn't far off his best and he's high on the list with Billy Loughnane aboard for the first time.

J: Jack Doughty

T: Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole

Four-time turf winner who scored off 1lb higher over C&D last autumn; took a while to get going this season but he's been placed at with cheekpieces added in his last two runs (1m, good to firm); usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck.

Form & Verdict
Dual 2yo winner (including on good to firm) who proved she's trained on with a good third at Lingfield (7.5f, good; Knights Gold sixth) last month; did well to get so close having raced away from the favoured rail that day and commands serious respect off the same mark.

Still seeking her first handicap success but she's run well to be placed in her last three starts; drawn widest and she'll need a bit more to win but the extended mile could suit.

Form & Verdict
Can race freely; three wins over C&D (twice on firm; once when making all) and he went close to adding a fourth when fighting out a fairly tight finish with Thapa Vc in May; again took a grip when flopping at Newbury next time but he's tactically versatile and of interest back here.

Form & Verdict
Standout run came when second in a Salisbury maiden (7f, good to firm) last August but not so good in testing conditions subsequently and she left Rod Millman (still with same owner) after finishing down the field on her handicap debut at Newbury in September; didn't settle on her reappearance in a Wolverhampton novice (8.5f, AW) last month but she's likely capable of better now returned to this sphere.

Readily won back to back last July (made all) and went down by a head in October (all 1m2f on turf); much more like it when tackling 1m4f for the first time at Salisbury 13 days ago, finding just an Andrew Balding 3yo too strong; will need to settle better if she's to see this trip out best.
