Won consecutive 1m2f Newbury races (soft and good) in spring 2023; second at Ascot in July was clearly his best show this season until he finished strongly for second over C&D yesterday; blew the start at Goodwood in between; goes well in the mud but he's more exposed than a few of today's rivals.

10st 4lb |
Won consecutive 1m2f Newbury races (soft and good) in spring 2023 but he reached his ceiling in the second of them; now 4lb higher than the latter win but he put up a stout show at Ascot in July (1m2f, good to soft) against one who has won again since; can be involved if handling this track on first attempt racing downhill. |

Made pretty much all for 1m2f handicap wins at Pontefract (soft) and Epsom (good to soft; 3lb higher today) this spring; found it too tough in two Group events since but could be a lot more interesting back in this handicap.

Lightly-raced but decidedly useful colt; has won both of his starts this season, most notably when landing a valuable handicap at Epsom's Derby meeting; his preference for an ease in the ground though would appear a significant negative. |

9st 8lb |
Impressive 2yo winner on the AW; had none other than Derby runner-up Ambiente Friendly behind when second in the Listed Feilden Stakes at Newmarket (1m1f, good) and, for whatever reason, he never gave his running at the same level on his return there (late rain may not have helped); big weights are never welcomed in this race but he could have the class to take a hand. |

Ran well behind clearcut winner in the Feilden Stakes here (1m1f, good) on seasonal debut, taking form figures to 212; Cracksman colt who is likely to stay 1m2f; open to further progress and has solid claims. |

Dropped back to 1m2f when a comfortable winner from the front on heavy going at Newmarket last November; plenty of disappointments in his record, including on both starts since that win (only one this term, in April); something of an enigma but a well-handicapped one judged on that November win.

Looked suited by the drop back to 1m2f when a comfortable winner from the front in the mud at Newmarket in November; faded to finish well held over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle on his final start so this return to a slightly shorter trip looks the right move on reappearance; still relatively lightly raced for his top stable. |

Won on heavy ground at Newmarket (1m2f) last week on the same card that fellow mudlark Mr Alan finished second; not fully exposed but he's another contender who could have done with this race staying at Doncaster. |

Acts on soft; stepping up to 1m2f worked a treat at the Newmarket July festival (6lb higher today) and he was a close third of six to Flying Frontier at Sandown (1m2f, again on good) three weeks ago; respected 3yo who needs to find a bit more improvement.

Stepping up to 1m2f worked a treat at the Newmarket July festival (good; 6lb higher today) and he wasn't disgraced when attempting a Listed race in France on latest outing; 3yo who could still have more to give. |

Won debut as 2yo; placed on next three starts and creditable seventh of 29 in handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; never able to challenge) on latest; best form (penultimate start) was on soft and he is bred to be suited by this step up in trip; one to consider seriously. |

Ran well on soft last season; bled from the nose on reappearance (her only run over this far) and soundly beaten in another Listed race next time; beaten only 6l in 1m handicap at Glorious Goodwood on latest start but finished eighth of 12, so others bring more pressing claims.

Below-form third when favourite for the 7f nursery at the meeting last year; fourth in a Curragh Group 3 next time was good but she has suffered three heavy defeats in Listed races since (bled from the nose on reappearance); plenty of doubts after that and she looks on a stiff mark anyway. |

6yo whose first appearance at about 1m2f was a winning one in 15-runner race at the York Ebor meeting (good to firm) four weeks ago, leading final 1f at 25-1; won on it in the past but has not shone on softer than good in 2023 or 2024; up 5lb but this trip needs exploring further.

6yo who is unraced beyond 8.5f and hasn't been at her very best this year; however, she's edged back down the weights and kept on well when 2l fifth at Ascot (1m, good) last month; judged on that latest evidence she's worth a go at this new trip and is not ruled out each-way. |

Eight races, the clear best efforts being his four runs on good to firm; that includes winning a maiden at Windsor (1m2f) in July and when close up in handicaps on next two starts, over C&D on second occasion; soundly beaten on soft two weeks ago, so any recent rain would be a worry.

Usually slowly away, markedly so sometimes, but he's won at Ascot, Chepstow and Southwell on his three appearances this term; the first two of those were on good to soft (more to prove on soft) and latest on AW; up another 6lb but it's hard to rule out one who's been in the form of his life.
