2lb below his last winning mark and drops to this level for the first time since last November, but not sure he is running well enough to take advantage; has gone well on Polytrack including a win here (1m), but Tapeta may suit him better.

Second at this meeting in 2024 but only eighth in this race last year; had an excellent autumn on AW and won again in January, but he's struggled to make an impact in recent AW starts and his record is a lot stronger at up to 1m3f than at about 1m4f.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: David Evans

He's never won off a mark this high and he needs to produce more than he's managed at Kempton and Lingfield on his last three starts; however, before those he won a 13-runner handicap over C&D with something to spare and the return to Newcastle could be in his favour; not ruled out each-way.

Made it seventh-time lucky when just holding on at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) in August; more will needed despite just a 2lb rise but he still has scope for further progress and the return to this trip not a problem; shortlisted.

Inconsistent in his seven handicaps but he's won two of them; gelded before his successful return at Southwell (1m3f, AW) three weeks ago, when asserting by about 2l in six-runner race; 4lb higher today but probably okay on turf and has to be considered seriously.

Highly tried after winning Lingfield maiden (AW) in April last year and he bounced back from a swing at the Derby when going close at Thirsk (also 1m4f, good) in July; that form would make him a handicap snip but it's been a real struggle since and blinkers are now reached for; only considered if the market warms to him.
