Form & Verdict
Unbeaten since the visor went on and she completed a hat-trick with plenty in hand at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good; beat Mohawk Chief by 13l) three weeks ago; tactically versatile; remains unexposed and probably the one to beat.

Laravie

10st 9lb

J: Joanna Mason

T: James Owen

Four-time hurdle scorer and has collected three Flat wins this spring (1m6f-2m1f); turned over at very short odds at Yarmouth (1m6f, good to firm) 16 days ago but the emphasis in that three-runner race was more on speed than ideal for a mare who has won over just short of 3m over timber; can show she's still on a good mark back at 2m+.

Unexposed on the Flat and she made it 3-3 in turf handicaps with an easy Pontefract (2m1f, good) win ten days ago; a slow start there meant she couldn't dominate as she had at Salisbury and Catterick beforehand; 4lb well in under a penalty; obvious chance.

Form & Verdict
4yo who was rough around the edges early on but seems more the finished article now; found plenty to win maiden at Worcester (2m, good to soft) in June and followed up in novice over same C&D (good) the following month; shapes as if he'll be suited by this longer distance; commands respect.

All three wins in maiden/novice company (2m and 2m3f) but not far away in a Grade 2 at Cheltenham (3m, good to soft) in December and soft ground was a query when pulled up in that grade since; below market expectations in his sole handicap (2m) but capable of better back at 2m5f.

Form & Verdict
No match for Laravie at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in June but he got off the mark in first-time blinkers over C&D (good to soft) next time; proving consistent and should be thereabouts again.

Won a maiden at Market Rasen in July and a novice at Hexham the following month over around 2m4f but form has dipped since handicapping on his last two starts; blinkers replace cheekpieces on this drop in distance and he needs to be taken seriously in this low grade.

Sole Flat win (31 attempts) was debut in 2020; had two hurdle wins (2m5f and 2m4f) in 2025 and there have been bits of chase form in recent months; visor returning instead of blinkers might possibly help, but there are more likely candidates.

Form & Verdict
Won a small-field point in April and stayed on for fourth of 17 in bumper at Aintree (also on good) in May; switched stables before finishing tailed off on recent hurdles debut at Cartmel (2m1f, good to soft; 11-4); requires a big step forward but it's too soon to be writing her off.

Overall record of 0-12 but she's unexposed over fences and went clear some way out before fading into a 9l fourth here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago; continues to edge down the weights and she could make a bold bid on this drop back in trip; hood removed.

Maiden under rules (0-10), but she posted a series of consistent efforts over hurdles; tried to make all in an added hood over C&D (chase debut) latest, succumbing to the stronger finish of Passengerontheship; is 5lb better off with 7l too find; the task isn't impossible.
