Form & Verdict
Has an ordinary strike-rate overall but he broke his turf duck over C&D (good to soft; acts well on good to firm) in June and nearly always runs well in sprints on this track; one of the better options.

Won a 6f handicap here (good to firm) in July off a 1lb higher mark; handles soft ground but the worry is that he might get going too late back at 5f.

Form & Verdict
Not in the same form as he was in May and June last year but he's on a lowly mark now and, after being pushed along from some way out, he did stick well to the task when fourth over C&D (good to firm) recently; form case to be made down in grade.

A good spell in 2025 included a Redcar win (6f, good to firm) and a close second in this race (good to soft); slow to find her form this year but things started to look up when she was second of nine at Carlisle (6f) in June; primed to go well.

All three turf wins at 5f, including on this course, but she has won over this trip on the AW and ran well enough over 6f at Pontefract (good) recently to expect her to be on the premises.
