All three wins have been at courses with stiff uphill finishes (including at this venue) and shaped as though retaining much of ability at Haydock on reappearance last month; widest draw is a bit of a worry, though. |

9th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Now 5lb lower than when winning over C&D last October and he's one to watch in the betting, but he's struggled in his five starts this season (here last time) and needs to be an entirely different proposition today. |

Nine-race maiden; two good runs this season, notably when a close second over 1m at Doncaster last week (good) after making the running; down in trip but a possible. |
11/1 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
20th Jul 2024 Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Only just failed on handicap debut at Southwell (1m) in December but lesser effort there before winter break; encouraging return at Hamilton in June but was beaten before the 1m2f trip became an issue at Haydock since; has something prove now; yard also runs Crown's Lady. |

Multiple 1m winner, including over C&D; best efforts on a sound surface; back on the same mark as when winning a 0-65 handicap at Redcar in May (soft); below that level since but the return to this grade and mark could see him more closely involved.

7th 7 (5) |
25th Jul 2024 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has won here (1m, good to firm) and returned to form to with a win at Redcar (1m, soft) in May; however, he's been below that level when merely sixth the next twice and needs to raise his game. |

19th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Just one win from 17 starts and that was in September 2022; went very close over 1m at Newcastle (AW) in February but he's been quiet since and was never involved when favourite at Thirsk last month; others are more convincing. |

Bolted up at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) in June to snap a long losing sequence; mixed form since but there have been some respectable efforts and he might not be far away. |

3rd 9 (10) |
30th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |

Soft-ground fillies' novice winner (5f) at Nottingham on her second start as a juvenile; has only got within a few pounds of that form once since; well beaten on sole start for previous trainer; since changed hands for 4,800gns; drops 2lb; best watched at present.

9th Jul 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Won 5f novice for Dominic Ffrench Davis last May; hadn't convinced with staying power for 7f and 1m on first two runs this year and although she was only just behind Sugarloaf Lenny at Wolverhampton (extended 1m) recently, she has an extra stamina challenge for new yard here. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 1 (9) |
20th Jun 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Soft-ground winner last spring who's started big prices and finished well held in two runs back from a year off; didn't prove her stamina over 1m last time and is some way down the pecking order on her AW debut. |
25/1 |

OR: 62
Got off the mark at the 13th time of asking when getting up late to score at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) when last seen in May; that form has received several boosts since so, from just 2lb higher, she looks likely to remain a big player.

3 yo Colt
OR: 61
Triple winner at up to 1m2f; arrives on the back of a career-best effort, when the ready winner of a 0-55 handicap at Carlisle (1m, good) recently; has been below par next time after his two previous successes but he's a player again after a 5lb rise, provided he can back up his win.

5th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 6 |
10st 3lb |
Raced freely and looked to go hard enough in front when below market expectations last time; drops back from 1m2f and will likely have plenty of use made of him again. |
7/1 |
|
8th 5 (8) |
22nd Jul 2024 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Better with each run this season and the step back up in trip, returned to the blinkers worn for last year's two nursery wins, looks ideal; enters calculations. |
5/1 |
