Form & Verdict
Quickly coaxed back to form by James Owen last year, winning 6f handicaps at Kempton (twice) and Chester; struggled on dirt in the Middle East over the winter but his mark dropped quickly and he ran well back on turf in Abu Dhabi in March; returned to Britain with an emphatic success at Leicester (6f, good to firm) eight days ago; today's 8lb higher mark should still be in range but the drop to 5f is a slight query.

J: David Probert

T: James Owen

Had ups and downs since showing decent form earlier in career and was well treated when starting out for this trainer in 2025, winning three of his last four 6f starts on AW and turf; went down only narrowly back on turf (good to firm; headgear left off) in UAE during March and he's of interest now back with former yard.

Form & Verdict
Speedy filly who won three 5f handicaps after joining Grace Harris last year; raced too freely in the early stages of her return at Nottingham last month but it was a solid start to the year and she should make a bold bid despite stepping up in class.

Prominent racer; off the mark for the year with a narrow win at Bath (5f, good) in May; held her form since and her latest Sandown third came in a higher grade; Ashley Lewis knows her well and she's a leading contender.

Form & Verdict
Won twice on turf last year (as well as once on AW) and he has continued on an upward curve in 2026, winning for the third time this season when making all at Wolverhampton 12 days ago; that was his first success at this trip and there could be more to come at 5f; 6lb rise demands progress though.

Two turf wins last summer and three AW wins this year, the latest at Wolverhampton in April; ran well when third of five at Salisbury next time but two lesser runs have followed and he needs to raise his game.

Has won over 6f and 5f on the AW since March and he's perfectly capable on turf, though perhaps not on ground easier than good judged on latest run at Chepstow.

Form & Verdict
Dropped right away at Bath (5.7f, good) on her reappearance 16 days ago; can win more races this year but she is yet to defy a mark this high and there are in-form opponents.

Majority of her turf wins have come at Bath and Chepstow, most recently when making all on the former track in June, but she's a C&D winner too (good to firm) and she lost her chance early when back on this course 16 days ago; on a career-high mark but not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Most of his success has come on AW but he showed at Nottingham last spring that he could get the job done on turf (5f, good); looked as though his recent seasonal return would bring him on and his lacklustre end to 2025 has seen him drop to a dangerous mark.
