Made a fine start for current yard (formerly with Charlie Appleby) last September when bagging a pair of handicaps at Haydock and Hamilton. Has shaped well both outings this season, third in 21-runner contest at York 6 weeks ago, and there could still be better to come.

On long losing run but after leaving Andrew Balding he's shaped encouragingly both starts this season, beaten only by a trio of 4-y-os when fourth of 14 at Newbury (6f) 6 weeks ago. On a handy mark and could have more to offer for current yard.

Bounced back to winning ways at Beverley in April. Excuses next time, before running respectably when fifth of 16 at York last time, never nearer having been slowly away. Can make his presence felt with possibility of a strong pace to aim at.

Enjoyed an excellent 2025, winning 6 times over this C&D including this race. Ended the campaign with success in December and has continued in good heart this year, soon leaving behind a rare lesser effort when runner-up at Doncaster 20 days ago. Respected back here.

Group 3 winner for Andrew Balding in 2024 and still capable of smart form on occasion for Marco Botti last year. However, failed to come on for seasonal/stable debut when down the field in handicap at Thirsk last time. Tongue strap fitted.

Who had excuses on first start with blinkers applied, bounced back to best when landing a Sunday Series handicap at Hamilton last month. Encouragingly backed that up when third of 17 at Thirsk 26 days ago and this dual C&D winner is capable of a bold bid.

Stepped up on his form in Italy when making a winning start for this stable in a Southwell handicap in March. Not seen to best effect next 2 outings, but in first-time cheekpieces he was below form at Windsor 18 days ago. Regular blinkers go back on.

Produced a career best when winning in Bahrain (5f) in January. Hasn't kicked on since then, though travelled well for a long way when sixth of 7 in handicap at Ripon (6f) 8 days ago. Drop back in trip should suit with visor reapplied.
