Form & Verdict
Ex-Irish 7yo who had a much higher mark this time last year; well backed all day and on course when winning over C&D 12 days ago, and there's every chance he can defy a 3lb rise under Ashley Lewis, who has plenty of experience for his 3lb claim in this company.

Won by 4l last Saturday to complete a Lingfield turf double; raised a whopping 12lb but is still well treated on best form, which includes close second (off 4lb higher) in this contest in 2025; fighting chance.

Four-time AW winner, most recently at Lingfield (6f) in January off the same mark as today's; left the impression he's still in form on soft ground at Salisbury 23 days ago and has place claims back on the AW.

All four wins have been on the AW but he does act on turf; beaten 4l when second of five at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) ten days ago but soft ground would be a slight concern.

Has done his winning, and a lot of his racing, over 7f; didn't get the breaks back down to 6f last time following a fair AW comeback, and he's capable of going well off this mark.

Some fair efforts on turf (6f) and AW (7f) this season; well beaten behind Tex and Dannick over 1m here last month but shaped as if back in better form (met trouble) when sixth of 12 at Leicester (6f) last week.

Some fair efforts on turf (6f) and AW (7f) this season but his form nosedived at Ascot last time; that was a Class 4 event but he needs to bounce back and probably doesn't have much in hand off his current mark.

Has been running over further of late, looking to have no problem with 1m last month; pulled hard when below par last time and there are risks involved now first-time visored (has worn cheekpieces twice) dropped back to sprinting.

Scored over 7f here in June and doubled his tally for the season in 6f Wolverhampton claimer in July; last of seven back in handicap company at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago so has a bit to prove in a change of headgear.
