Form & Verdict
Won over C&D on stable debut in November 2024, but that was a shock at a huge price and she's 0-13 since; on dangerous mark but was well held in her final two runs last year and has something to prove after 133 days off.

Two AW wins when trained by Denis Quinn and he made a pleasing start for his new trainer, after 205 days off, when third over C&D last month; races off the same mark and should be involved if the removal of cheekpieces doesn't impact negatively.

Form & Verdict
Resurgent 8yo who has form figures of 21122 this month and was a clear second in a classified event at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last Saturday; still looks feasibly treated back in a handicap and his last win was over C&D; key player back in trip.

Six of his eight wins have been on the AW, the most recent coming in first-time cheekpieces at Lingfield (1m) in March on his first start for Laura Mongan; down the field in two outings for this stable, however, and others have stronger claims; hood on and cheekpieces discarded.

Two AW wins in early 2025, over 7f at Chelmsford and 6f at Wolverhampton, both under Rossa Ryan; her form took a turn for the worse, including for him, in the second half of the year but she didn't do badly in a slowly run C&D race won by Ashford Hill last time and Ryan returns to the saddle.

Form & Verdict
All four wins have been on AW, the latest here (1m) in August; no impact on C&D reappearance last month but she may have needed that run and her first three wins were over this trip; has claims if she can rediscover her spark and she's not ruled out.
