11-time winner, most recently from off the pace over C&D last month; not in same form on either 8.6f start at Wolverhampton since, though, and might still be a shade too high in the weights.

Came from off the pace (in refitted blinkers) to run down Von Krolock in a 7f apprentices' handicap at Southwell (10-1) on penultimate start; only eighth (King Of Speed fourth) over C&D subsequently; 4lb higher now, with a different claiming rider booked.

Successful in 0-55 apprentice event under Myla Coppins at Southwell (7f) last week, taking AW record to 6-45; this is a slightly better race but he escapes a penalty; dual C&D scorer; respected.

Regressed since notching a slow-ground hat-trick early in his 3yo season and he was well beaten on reappearance (6f, good to firm); dropped another 4lb but he's unproven over this trip; lots to prove.

Regressed since notching a soft-ground hat-trick early in his 3yo season and is entitled to need this after nine months off; only run once on ground faster than good, when a beaten-favourite, so these conditions would be a concern.

Six-time winner, with five of those wins coming on turf; ran well when second of 11 here on the AW in December and switches to turf on her first start since; seems unsuited by ground softer than good.

0-9; didn't get home over 1m at Leicester (good to firm) five days ago but she wasn't beaten as far as she was on stable/seasonal debut; drops back to 7f with blinkers and tongue-tie added; may go well from the front for her in-form yard.

0-8 and her best efforts have been over shorter; probably needed the run when beaten 21l on stable debut at Lingfield (7f, soft); sounder surface may suit but the step back up in trip isn't sure to.

A fair maiden at her best but she signed off for Stuart Williams with a below-par ninth in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap in November; needs to hit the ground running for her new yard.

Form & Verdict
Sole win came in a maiden at York (1m, soft) in 2023 for Richard Fahey; third at Kempton (7f, AW) in February but he was well beaten either side of that and never got involved at Lingfield (6f, AW) 95 days ago; dropped another 2lb and returns to 7f with a visor added.

Form & Verdict
7yo who is without a win since July 2022; creditable fourth at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in November but he's failed to beat a rival in two starts since; steps back up to 7f on this return to turf; cheekpieces worn last time are discarded; needs to return to form back at a track he's won at.

Still 8lb higher than when winning over C&D in September, but narrow defeats off similar marks to this in his last two outings suggest he is capable of playing a part.

A string of good runs at Brighton before collecting by 3l over C&D in a race that panned out to perfection; bled from the nose when disappointing at Brighton last time but he's 7lb higher than for his penultimate run and could have competition for the lead back on AW.
