Midfield at Ayr (6f, heavy) last Thursday and same story at York (5f, soft) on Friday; however, he twice went close on consecutive days at the end of September (5f/6f, soft/heavy) and is not ruled out under Billy Loughnane.

Won at Hamilton (5f, good) in June and runner-up on next two starts, over this C&D (soft) on the latter occasion; three lesser runs followed but he was bang there when third back on soft ground at Hamilton (5f) yesterday and has to be considered after that revival.

Class 5 success over C&D initiated a solid start to the season; the subsequent other half of his campaign is characterised by a dip in form; no certainty to take advantage of drop back down weights.

Form & Verdict
Can lead; all three 5f wins on good to soft or slower; two creditable efforts on good ground this year but chance much improved by the recent rain and has dropped below his latest winning mark; in contention.

Can lead; on a tempting mark relative to past turf form but he's 0-7 on the AW and has been well beaten since only just failing against Arlington over C&D in January; couldn't count on refitted blinkers, replacing a visor, returning him to form.

Triple turf winner who is 0-6 on AW surfaces; went close over C&D on his penultimate start (first-time tongue-tie and visor combination) but was well beaten without the visor back here latest; visor now returns but hard to be confident of another better effort.

Form & Verdict
Added two 5f races in 2024, on good to soft and soft, both off higher marks than today's; hasn't been in quite the same form this year but he's had wind surgery since last seen in April and a tongue-tie is refitted (three wins in one); might just need this but has form claims.

Form & Verdict
Making up into a useful sprinter for this yard, her winning run interrupted only by an up-and-comer at Hamilton (5f, good) last month; she still looked ahead of her mark when winning cosily over 6f here since; a further 5lb rise raises less of a query than if the ground is slower than good; yard has won two of the last three runnings.

Four 5f wins in 2024, on ground ranging from good to heavy; big prices and some way below her best all starts in 2025; needs a serious turnaround if she's to play a part against in-form rivals.

Effective on fast ground but all five wins have been on good or slower including three over C&D; 0-10 this season but he travelled well for a long way when third off this reduced mark at Hamilton ten days ago; usually races prominently and he could make another bold bid back at this track.
