In fine form at 6f on the AW of late, winning at Southwell and Newcastle; has a better strike-rate on sand than turf (1-17) but he was running to a similar level on grass as AW in 2025 and it may be unwise to presume he's a one-surface wonder; respected.

Heavy ground excuses her low-key end to 2025 and she ran a series of good races, including a win at Hamilton when first tried in blinkers; whether first time out is the time to catch her remains to be seen but interesting that a tongue-tie goes on for her return.
