9st 10lb

J: Rhys Elliott

T: Michael & David Easterby

Scored at Ayr (1m2f) last April in a light campaign in 2025; back from 12 months off with an encouraging Ripon fifth but beat only one at Chester (1m4f) since; needs to bounce back.

J: Billy Garritty

T: Michael & David Easterby

Won at Ayr wearing cheekpieces in April and it wasn't a bad effort when fifth at Ripon (again 1m2f, good) 16 days ago; concerning that the run in between came over this C&D when beaten 24l and said not to have been suited by the track, however.

J: Joanna Mason

T: Michael & David Easterby

Scored with a fair degree of authority at Ayr (1m2f, good; from 2lb lower) in April 2025; absent since toiling at Chester 362 days ago, which raises concerns, but he did win over C&D on his 2024 reappearance; the betting should help to guide expectations.

9st 8lb

J: Joanna Mason

T: Michael & David Easterby

Lightly raced 4yo who was all the sharper for his reappearance when resuming his progression with a 2l win at Ayr (1m2f, good); the runner-up was 6l clear of the third so the handicapper could have put him up by more than 4lb; could be more to come from him now stepping up to 1m4f for the first time.
