J: Mr Cian Murphy

T: Lucy Wadham

Front-runner who bids to complete a Fakenham hat-trick after two wide-margin wins in two-finisher contests this year (3m5f, soft/3m, good to soft); the value of his form is tricky to evaluate and today's faster ground may not be ideal but, nevertheless, another bold bid seems likely.

7 yo Gelding

OR: 84

Form & Verdict
Scored at Sedgefield (2m5f, soft) in December when wearing cheekpieces for the first time but has been disappointing in both runs since (didn't seem to stay 3m2f here last time); should do better now back down in trip.

J: Paul O’Brien

T: Jessica Bedi

Has won twice since December (2m5f/2m7f) and kept on pretty well for second of five at Sedgefield (3m2f, good) last month but he's too inconsistent to rely upon heavily; others preferred.

J: Paul O’Brien

T: Jessica Bedi

Led close home in first-time cheekpieces here (2m5f, soft) last December and was also successful in four-runner race at Huntingdon (2m7f, good to firm) in May; too inconsistent to rely upon heavily and came to grief here last month but he's on a good mark if all goes to plan.

Two chase wins, the first over 2m5f here (soft) in December, the second at Huntingdon in May (2m7f, good to firm; four ran); decent third at Market Rasen last time; one with a chance.

Won off this mark on his chasing debut at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) last June and has been consistent in four runs since, albeit not confirming his stamina over an extended 3m at Warwick in January.

Won four-runner race off today's mark on chasing debut at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) in June 2025 but has not yet built on that performance; had excuse (bled from the nose) for poor performance in March but has been absent since and others here have more pressing claims; cheekpieces removed.
