Form & Verdict

Won this last year (good to soft) on sole previous course visit and a case can also be made on this season's best efforts, including a good-ground win; however, he was well beaten on quick going at York recently and will have something to prove if such a surface prevails today.

Form & Verdict

Front-runner who has won twice this year (6f, good) and was a creditable sixth of 14 at York (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; her best form has come over 6f but she should have the pace to be effective at 5f and she's dropping back down in grade this evening; can make a bold bid.

Form & Verdict

Without a win since February 2022 and just 1-32 on turf, but he's run well when fourth off this mark on his last two starts (5f, good to firm/good), most recently at Haydock on Sunday, and he's an each-way contender.

Down a long way in the weights since finishing second in the 5f handicap here last August and has possibilities on the pick of this year's efforts but he's never won a turf handicap and wasn't at his best in the refitted visor at Chepstow recently; best form on good or quicker ground.

Pulled hard and faded at Newcastle (6f, AW) recently and she'll struggle to see this out if doing the same today; however, the big field could help her settle and she caught the eye when finishing fast for third of 16 at Beverley (5f) last month after being denied a clear run; not discounted.

Back up to 6f for first time since 2022 but he kept on well over 5.5f at Chester in July, and over 5f on heavy at Hamilton last time, and this trip is worth another go; won at Hamilton (5f) last month; not discounted.

Form & Verdict

The form of her Windsor novice win (6f, good to firm) in June has worked out well and she bounced back from her disappointing handicap debut at York (6f, good to soft) when third at Ascot (5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; deserves extra credit for that latest run as her low draw looked a negative, and this unexposed 3yo has potential off her static mark.
