Got up late to win a C&D handicap last month, his second course win; only midfield at Thirsk last week and minor money perhaps his best hope.

On a 16-race losing run but down the weights as a result and he was on the heels of the winner when third of 12 at Thirsk (7f) 11 days ago; having his first race here; thereabouts if he takes to it.
AI verdict

SR 89 suggests ability but reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Group 3 winner in France as a 2yo but lost his form in 2025; weak in market and beat just one home at Newmarket on reappearance/stable debut; should come on for that outing but he might need another run or two before he is of renewed interest.
AI verdict

SR 86 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at .

Gained three 6f wins on the AW last spring but he went off the boil and refused to race in the Ayr Silver Cup on his final outing; hard to see him breaking his turf duck after eight months off.

Useful for Karl Burke in his younger days, although only win was a York novice on debut (6f, good); best run for Roger Fell when fifth over 7f at Thirsk last time, when shaping as though he might stay 1m (can pull hard); tongue-tie now tried.

Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth at Newcastle (6f) but has taken two backward steps since; has his first run beyond sprint distances here and needs to bounce back after seven weeks off.

Notched two wins over this trip at Catterick last October and he has returned in fine form, making much of the running when a close third over C&D (good ground) last month; solid claims again from an unchanged mark.

Two wins from just four attempts; comfortably beat four rivals in Carlisle novice (7f, good to firm) last August and she became upset in the preliminaries before running poorly on handicap debut here next time; retains potential and she's an interesting candidate after a layoff.
