Form & Verdict
Ran away with a C&D handicap in November and held his form since after a hefty rise up the weights; wide stall won't help his cause but he is becoming more realistically treated again now.

Beaumadier

9st 3lb

J: Jack Callan

T: Mark Loughnane

He has two impressive C&D wins on his record this winter; not at his best on his last two starts but he's not an easy horse to pass if breaking on terms; needs another personal best but it is not out of the question.

On a career-high mark but is difficult to dismiss, having recorded a clearcut win from the front over C&D on penultimate start; awkwardly away and unable to dominate at Lingfield latest.

Back to form with a bang when blitzing his rivals at Wolverhampton last week, setting strong fractions and coming home 3.25l in front; 3lb well in under a penalty and he is better drawn today than when widest of all at Wolverhampton; effective over C&D; obvious chance.

First past the post four times in succession in the second half of 2025 (demoted to fourth on the third occasion); she has carried on the good work this year, finishing second in three of her four starts; more required to defy this mark and she still has a bit to prove on turf.

Tapeta specialist but he's hung right before finishing a well-held fifth at Wolverhampton (5f) in his last two starts; continues to edge down the weights but he's 0-13 on turf and has not run in this sphere since last May; others preferred.

Four C&D wins (from marks in the 60s); excuses when a closing third over C&D on penultimate start; hung right when three places (over 4l) behind Shalaa Asker subsequently; has won for Kieran O'Neill but needs everything to drop his way.

Has dropped a fair way down the weights over the last year or so, but looked back in prime form when scooting clear to win readily by 4l at Southwell (5f, AW) last week; also suited by good to firm turf and is 4lb ahead of the handicapper under his 5lb penalty.

Ready win at Lingfield (1m) last month and that has been followed by two more solid efforts over that C&D; drops to 5f for the first time on his 44th racecourse start and it isn't sure to suit.

He's won just once since making his British debut in October 2023; however, that came this January (7f, AW) and a slow start proved costly when back at 6f at Southwell last Thursday; effective on turf and might not be far away now back up in trip.
