J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Ready winner on debut last year (1m2f, Polytrack) and ran to an RPR in the 90s each start after; returned from nearly eight months off with lacklustre effort at Ascot and is suddenly best watched; cheekpieces return.

J: Harry Davies

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

His progress stalled at the end of last season but returns as a still relatively unexposed 4yo who could kick on again in 2026; betting informative.

8st 7lb

J: Sean D Bowen

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Won on debut at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in January and runner-up in 1m2f novices on next two starts (good/good to firm); hasn't kicked on as might have been expected in handicaps since but he wasn't disgraced when 7l eighth of 12 in the usually strong Melrose at York (1m6f, good to firm) last time and being eased another 2lb can only help now taking on older opposition for the first time; also wears first-time cheekpieces.

J: William Buick

T: Simon & Ed Crisford

Won on debut at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in January and runner-up in 1m2f novices the next twice (good/good to firm); however, mid-division at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) in his first handicap and fourth of six behind Tarriance at Sandown (1m6f, good) last time, and he needs to find improvement.

Solid record (1227) over middle distances, running creditably at Royal Ascot (good to firm; handicap debut) most recently; possibilities off same mark, provided this new trip prompts progress.
