Form & Verdict
Has 5f form here; broke duck at Brighton (about 5f, good to firm) in May 2025; probably in better form than form figures suggest, having been eased after suffering interference here last month and not faring badly against an in-form stablemate at Brighton since; not ruled out.

Back in form since dropped to this level and proved 7f within range at Brighton last week, despite not looking in love with the course; her claims are obvious under Billy Loughnane (8-41 for the yard) as long as there's not too much rain.

Disappointing since her early-season 2yo days; plummeted down the weights as a consequence and latest Bath second (5.7f, good), her first run at this level, was more encouraging; stamina for 7f has to be taken on trust though.

Form & Verdict
Had few realistic chances and ran quite encouragingly in his second handicap, on the AW last December; well beaten on reappearance but he scooted up the favoured rail to win at Lingfield (6f, good; first-time cheekpieces) ten days ago; carries a penalty for that but his incoming 6lb rise will force him out of this grade in future; good form chance.

Improved plenty when making all over 6f here (good) last month, albeit the plum draw and first-time cheekpieces probably played their part; didn't back it up in a 0-50 classified event at Bath (5,7f, good) next time, but he is still a major player based on that penultimate effort.
