Form & Verdict
C&D win last summer on his second start; similar form in defeat on his next two starts but he ended 2025 with a lesser effort and there was no revival on his reappearance at York (1m1f, good; first run since gelded; well backed) 19 days ago; dropped another 3lb and could benefit from the return to AW; still of interest.

Won at Kempton (1m, AW) on second run since being gelded and he followed up in fine style at Newbury (1m, good to firm); up 9lb since last time but this progressive 4yo could still play a leading role.

Form & Verdict
Dropped down the weights last summer and he has rediscovered his spark this time around, following third-placed efforts here and at Goodwood with a comfortable Salisbury success (all over 7f); probably stays this far but he has yet to be placed in his six 1m starts so it will be breaking new ground for him to win today.

J: Benoit De La Sayette

T: George Baker

All five of his wins have been on the AW, the most recent at this track over 7f last October; wasn't at his best at Epsom (8.5f, good to firm) in July and a wide trip can be given as an excuse for a below-par effort here over 7f last month; each-way claims.

Started his career with two wins on Tapeta (7f/1m) last year; 0-8 in handicaps, but he's on a reduced mark and made some good late headway when sixth at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good) last month; was only beaten around 2l in that race and he looks interesting on this drop back in grade.
