Hasn't done a lot wrong over 5f this summer, running on strongly to win at Doncaster 12 days ago; 4lb rise not insurmountable on AW debut. |

8st 9lb |
Form appeared to dip in a C&D handicap two weeks ago but he raced away from the main action from his low draw and that isn't a run to judge him too harshly on; the faster they go early the better it will be for him. |

Won a 5f Yarmouth maiden (good to firm) on debut in May last year; has been highly tried since, best run when sixth of ten on her seasonal reappearance in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn in April (7f, good); makes handicap debut back down in trip on first run for new yard, having left Jane Chapple-Hyam.

9st 9lb |
Looked destined for big things when running away with a Yarmouth maiden on her debut last May (5f, good to firm); that hasn't been the case as yet, but she hasn't been seen to best effect in either run this season (both 7f Group 3s on good ground); makes her handicap debut but not obviously well treated. |

Lightly raced 3yo; easy winner at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) on debut last spring; ran about as well as could have been expected when sixth of ten in Nell Gwyn at Newmarket (7f, good; 66-1) on reappearance; appears to face another uphill task here. |

Not the best of strike-rates (1-20) and rather inconsistent this term, running well when second at York two runs back (5f, good to soft) but not so well when 12th of 16 at Haydock last time (6f, good); return to 5f may suit.

Without a victory since 2022 but he got back on track when fourth of eight in 5f Doncaster handicap eight days ago; he can make his presence felt eased 1lb despite being drawn widest of all. |

Bounced back with an all-the-way win at Doncaster (5f, good) last month but he failed to repeat that form at Thirsk 15 days later; now drops back into a Class 3 but he's not easy to predict and didn't shine over C&D in April; others look more solid. |

Three wins all came from the front on turf in the summer months, latterly back from wind surgery off a 3lb lower mark a month ago; needs to improve on previous Tapeta efforts and stall 10 wouldn't look ideal. |

Below par of late but he should be well handicapped and wasn't far away at Ayr in May (four runs back); better at 5f than 6f, over which he ran last time, and he's had a wind op since then; respected. |
4/1 |
