Had cheekpieces refitted last time for her best show this season, admittedly in only fifth of seven but she's lurking on a career-low mark.

Had been quiet in her first three starts after returning in June, but suddenly took off when bolting up by 17l under Ryan Kavanagh in an apprentice handicap at Newbury (1m2f, good) a week ago; avoids a penalty for that (9lb well in) and will be very hard to beat if in a similar mood. |

Well handicapped on last year's form and might be aided by the refitted cheekpieces here, but well down the field on both outings last month (1m2f/1m3f) and her tendency to race too freely remains a worry. |

He is 0-11 at Newbury and ran poorly in this race last year but plenty of the others were good efforts; won at Chepstow (1m2f handicap he also won the year before) last month but needs to bounce back from a lesser show at Sandown three weeks ago.

His last turf win was at this track but it June 2022; just the one AW win since (March 2023) and he's beaten a total of one rival during his four races this season; accelerating down the weights but needs a revival.

Both wins came in the summer of 2022 but the first one was at this track and he's well treated on his old form; has had two runs at Bath this year and was 7-2 favourite when runner-up over 1m2f (good) last time; that was his best effort for a while and has claims if he can back that up. |

Won over hurdles at the start of last month but beaten 20l over the same C&D 17 days later; a soft-ground win over 1m (October 2022) stands out among his Flat form and he otherwise has his work cut out off this mark.

Doubled his score over hurdles when he won with a bit in hand with a career best over C&D (2m, good) this month with blinkers refitted, albeit with the second being well held since; back up 7lb and this race looks stronger but he's respected nonetheless. |

He had tumbled down the weights prior to springing an 18-1 surprise at Bath last month (1m2f, firm); that effort backed up by the Topspeed figure so a 2lb rise shouldn't be beyond him; slower ground not ideal though. |

24th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Only turf win was over 1m2f at Chester in July 2022 (good) and has found winning difficult since, although the majority of his runs have been on the AW; has a 5lb lower turf mark and can be excused his latest well-held fourth at Chester due to the heavy ground; possibilities. |
