Seemed to win with a bit more in hand than the margin would suggest when beating Charencey by a neck in a 0-50 apprentice classified event at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) one week ago; stamina not in doubt over this longer trip having won over 1m6f at the same track last month; high on the list.

She had signalled a breakthrough might be coming and it duly did in four-runner event at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) on Thursday; can probably cope with this drop back in trip but a 5lb penalty for that nose success does make life harder; still respected.

Form & Verdict
Over two years since the last of his three wins; yet to shine in 2026 but he drops into a 0-50 classified for the first time and he can't be discounted.

Without a win since summer 2024 and nothing like the force of old but placed in this grade on last three appearances; drops back in trip after looking stretched by 1m4f last time; ought to be right in the thick of things.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: Ian Williams

Unraced beyond an extended 1m on the AW, but neck defeats at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) and at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) in her last two starts suggest this trip should be within range on a sharp track; high on list.

Two 1m2f wins this year, the latest a fast-ground handicap at Leicester in May; respectable efforts since without hitting quite the same heights; should give a good account.

Consistent enough at a similarly low level all year, winning twice, and there are no concerns regarding track, trip or ground; that's enough to see him shortlisted in a weak affair.
