Unexposed 3yo who found improvement on the switch to AW when making all in a C&D handicap in August; that was a surprise at 33-1 but she kept on well to beat a clear second and a 5lb rise looks fair enough; strongly respected.

Won two small-fileld 5f nurseries for Archie Watson last season, one of them at this track; finished down the field in his first four runs this season but he got back on track with a clear second behind Miracleoftheandes (runs in 3.16) over C&D in August; that was much more like it and he's a big player if he can back that up.

Four wins at sprint trips and 7f in 2025; slow start for new yard in 2026 but he wasn't far away at Newmarket (6f, good) behind one who has won a better race since and he didn't do badly from off the pace on Wolverhampton AW since; needs a clear run run in this big field but has a squeak.

Now 1lb lower than for his Chelmsford win (7f, AW) last summer and he showed signs of a revival when fourth of ten over C&D (33-1) two weeks ago; ties in with Rebel Path on that form and he's not ruled out with cheekpieces added.

Podium finishes on all three 2yo novice starts for Mark Rimell, almost holding on at Redcar (6f, good; bumped late); yet to scale those heights in handicaps this term despite starting off on a tolerable mark, traffic not costing him a win latest; hopes rest with change of scenery since.

Second or third in his three runs in 2yo novice events (all 6f, good ground or slower); unplaced in two 6f handicaps this year but he drops in class today and his pedigree strongly suggests stepping up to 7f will help; finished behind Dublin Bay at Ascot last time but was racing away from the main action; well drawn and a return to more positive tactics could see him run a big race.
