His second of five at Newmarket (5f, soft) 11 days ago was franked when the winner followed up at Sandown on Saturday, but he has only won two of his last 39 starts; may find one or two too good again.

6lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) on last summer's stable debut, but has mainly struggled since and was tailed off here last time. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Placed at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and remains 5lb lower than when scoring over C&D (good to soft) on last summer's stable debut, but has modest strike-rate in recent years and is not the percentage call. |

Handy sort who returned to winning form at Carlisle (7f, good) in June and made it 2-3 over C&D when making all here nine days ago; respected under his 5lb penalty, especially if allowed his own way again.

Losing run up to 18, but he has mainly been running consistently well in defeat since the spring and is 2lb lower than when beaten a neck over C&D in April; claims if bouncing back to that sort of form.

26th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
No success since 2022 but he's currently in a consistent vein of form, albeit over 6f; effective at 5f in the past and remains 15lb below last winning mark, so appears to have a fighting chance. |
3/1 |

3rd 8 (10) |
13th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
6yo who is nothing like the force of old and has been beaten on his last 16 starts; however, having dropped down the weights he's made the frame on his last four starts and could be thereabouts once more. |

Ended a 12-race losing run at Wolverhampton (5f, Tapeta) in May; no problem with 6f and has won fresh before so the 102-day absence shouldn't be a major issue, but a few of the others still look more compelling.

Lingfield turf novice winner (5f, good to firm) in July last year and finished runner-up in the Super Sprint next time, but has been a bit in and out since then; latest Bath effort was modest and she needs to bounce back from that.

17th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Tough to place since finishing second at a big price in the Super Sprint last summer but is competitive again on the evidence of her latest third off this mark (back from ten weeks off); is one to consider. |
8/1 |
|
3 (4) |
7th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Excellent second in last summer's Super Sprint at Newbury (5f, good to soft) but generally disappointing since; not seen since her sixth of seven at Goodwood (5f, good) in May; others have more pressing claims. |

All three AW wins have come over 6f on Tapeta including one here; 5lb lower than when winning at Newcastle just under a year ago, but he needs to improve on recent efforts and the outside stall is not helpful.

C&D win off an 8lb higher mark one year ago; running himself back into form this summer, most recently midfield at Southwell last week; should be winning races soon but perhaps not this one. |

Finished behind a couple of these at Kempton in June but that was his first run for 293 days and he showed he was well treated with a cosy success back at Kempton four weeks ago (well backed); 3lb rise not excessive but this is warmer. |

Justified favouritism in a Lingfield novice (6f, AW) for Andrew Balding in January; well held in first three runs this yard but he showed more promising signs when dropped to 5f at Newcastle (Tapeta) in June; was beaten less than 3l in that race and has claims if he can build on that back on turf. |
