Finished down the field in all six runs for Sir Mark Prescott, including a tailed-off effort in Newcastle handicap (1m, AW, first-time visor) when last seen; changed hands for £6,000 last month; cheekpieces are now tried and has a lot to prove back up in trip for new yard.

1st 7 (9) |
14th Jun 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won a couple of classified events over middle distances here in January/February; flopped on slow turf in his hat-trick bid but he ran right up to his recent best when third of 14 over 1m4f here three weeks ago; shouldn't be far away. |

24th May 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 6 |

Two course wins early in the year; failed to fire on slow ground at Bath on Good Friday but he's better than that and still has some handicapping scope at this level; more appealing than many. |

Her last win was in February 2020 but she's a seven-time Polytrack winner and has gone close at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) and over C&D in her last two starts; remains well treated on her old form and she's a big player from a good draw; cheekpieces reapplied.

Nine of her 11 wins have come on the AW, including one here (7f), but has only been successful in one of her last 48 starts; plenty to prove starting out for another new yard after 193 days off. |

Off the mark at the 14th attempt when trouncing her rivals by 10l at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) last month; raised 11lb for that success but she ran well again when a close second at Leicester last Tuesday; on same mark here and she's respected back on AW.

27th Aug 2023 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Emphatic winner of this race 12 months ago and followed up on her return the following month; those wins were off 2lb and 8lb higher marks respectively so handicapped to threaten if able to rediscover some form with the headgear (sported for last three runs) now removed. |
13/2 |

8th 6 (6) |
16th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Triple C&D winner who was a clear second back at this track (1m2f, good to soft; second-time visor) two weeks ago; that was behind a handicap blot who has won again since and this return to fast ground is no problem; dangerous with cheekpieces now tried. |
4/1 |

2nd 1 (3) |
1st Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 23y Class 6 |

Three C&D wins all came in late summer, including two for Isobel Francis last year, and she offered more in a first-time visor (retained) recently; holds decent claims on that down 2lb. |

Didn't progress in six starts at up to 1m2f for Roger Varian and was well held again on his stable debut at Kempton (7f, AW) last month; dropped another 3lb but has plenty to prove back up in trip in first-time blinkers.

Off the mark at the tenth attempt (fourth for Jane Chapple-Hyam) when readily accounting for 12 rivals in a stronger race over C&D two weeks ago; 7lb higher but foolish to rule out further progress. |

1st 15 (2) |

Still to post a victory but he got back on track in first-time blinkers when fourth of 15 in 1m2f Chelmsford handicap a fortnight ago; he's not ruled out for his new yard if he can build on that with headgear retained. |

Form: 221223 CD BF

Record of 1-12 but he has form figures of 2221223 over this trip and his win came over C&D; on same mark as for his creditable third at Lingfield in May when last seen and he's a key player if he can pick up where he left off.

Six-race maiden; showed clear promise when not beaten far in her first two handicaps (1m/8.6f, AW) but was disappointing after a slow start at Wolverhampton in her final run last winter; now returns from 241 days off and has something to prove in new headgear at this new trip.

5yo who has been resurgent with wins at Yarmouth (1m2f) in two of her last three starts; her latest win was in a small field 18 days ago but she finished well to beat a clear second and is only 2lb higher here; big player if she can carry on the good work back on Polytrack.
