9st 8lb |
3-8 over 1m on Polytrack (all at Kempton; having his first run here today); he is getting on and less consistent now but 6lb below his last winning mark and this race is a bit easier than he's used to. |

In fine order of late for his current yard, justifying heavy support at Lingfield before posting a clear second at Southwell (1m) 18 days ago; back up 4lb but he remains well treated on old form; big shout with visor added.

29th Apr 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Rallied well for last-gasp win at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in December; has not come close to that form since but he got hampered early on at Kempton last time and is now 5lb lower than for his last win; dangerous if he can rediscover his spark back up in trip. |
11/2 |
5th 2 (1) |
13th Mar 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner as a 2yo who narrowly doubled his winning tally off 2lb higher at Chelmsford (7f, Polytrack) in December; not the most consistent, but is 1-1 at Class 6 level so it's possible to make a case for him. |
6/1 |
7th 4 (3) |
9th Mar 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Inconsistent gelding who's struggled in two forms of headgear (blinkers retained) since a C&D win late last year off 2lb higher; it's hard to know what to expect in truth. |

Three wins for Mick Appleby, the most recent at Chelmsford in February; sold for 6,000gns since last run 11 weeks ago (below par); the betting may offer extra guidance. |

Front-runner whose wins have come round easier courses off lower marks; has been running well this summer and a lot will depend on his things unfold early, but he's drawn to attack switched to a second-time visor. |

Made it 3-6 in these blinkers with neck win here (8.3f, good to firm) ten days ago; this race looks tougher but he's up just 3lb for last time and this progressive 4yo keeps on finding the necessary further improvement; seems versatile ground-wise; could play another leading role. |
