Off the mark for his new yard with a C&D success on Boxing Day, running on well in the straight; a 2lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing and Billy Loughnane is 2-5 for the stable.

J: David Egan

Done his winning on the AW but is fine on turf; not best drawn when behind All Ways Glamorous at Ascot in the spring (now 2lb worse off) before not looking to see out 6f last time; needs a career-best off his current mark but this is less competitive.

J: Zac Lloyd

T: Thomas Faulkner

Has done most of his racing on AW (4-20) but seems at least as effective on turf and he went close at Chepstow three weeks ago; all wins over 5f but he tends to finish strongly and should be just as good at 6f; may not be fully exposed and the booking of young Aussie star Zac Lloyd catches the eye.

Completed a Polytrack hat-trick when scooting clear in a 6f handicap at Chelmsford last week; 3lb well in under a penalty and should have the pace to cope with this drop back in trip, albeit it remains a slight query.

Looked promising when winning on debut at Newcastle (6f) in December 2024; struggled in 2025 though and the drop in trip/class isn't enough to tempt in this field.

Didn't kick on from his winning debut for David O'Meara; down in the weights as a result and he has run two solid races for his new stable, second over 6f at Leicester last month before a good third over C&D four weeks ago (good to firm); untried on slower than good but handicapped to win.

Sole win came on his debut at Newcastle (6f, AW) in December 2024 but he ran well when runner-up at Leicester (6f, good) on his stable debut eight days ago, shaping as if he's worth another go at 7f; contender if backing that effort up.
