Form & Verdict

J: David Egan

T: Gary & Josh Moore

His three wins were all on the Flat in 2024, including here on heavy ground over 1m2f; failed to build on his comeback run when well beaten over hurdles at Kempton 52 days ago and the hood returns on this switch back to the Flat; makes some appeal from a good mark.

Form & Verdict
Has suddenly found the winning formula with three wins in his last four starts, latest when successful at Thirsk (1m6f, good to soft) 13 days ago; impossible to dismiss while in this mood for his in-form yard.

A three-time winner (including over C&D) in 2025 for Ian Williams; in good nick for his present yard too, fourth of eight in 1m3f Southwell handicap eight days ago; not out of things.

On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month; just a fair debut for his new yard recently and this trip is a bare minimum these days.

On the downgrade in recent times for Ian Williams, from whom he was picked up for 7,500gns last month, his latest second coming in a messy, small-field affair; decent record here, though, and is one to consider under regular partner Billy Loughnane.

Form & Verdict
Progressive on the AW since switching to current stable in the autumn (five wins) and scored over hurdles last month; yet to win on turf on Flat but this will be his first start in that sphere for current trainer so must be considered.

Highly fruitful in his two and a half years with this yard, including two wins (Flat/hurdles) this February/March; needs to bounce back from a rare flop but the chief concern is his 0-15 record on Flat turf.

Has form figures of 511 since handicapping, the wins at Goodwood (1m4f) and Yarmouth (1m6f); this Prescott filly is exactly the sort to carry on improving and defying the assessor; could well run up a sequence and accordingly warrants major respect.

Showed some ability in three AW maidens over 7f-8.6f last autumn, but tended to hang (not for the first time) when fifth of nine on last month's Newmarket handicap debut/reappearance (1m2f, good to firm); the longer trip should suit on breeding but she does have a bit to prove.

His third to progressive pair Deep Water Bay and Belgravian over 13.5f at Chelmsford reads very well (the fourth also won a hurdle next time); two lesser runs have followed but major player if first-time cheekpieces help him to recapture the Chelmsford form.
