An elaborate headgear combination failed to inspire last month and handler now returns him to the C&D that has produced his sole success. Has become enigmatic and best avoided for now.
Fair fourth on debut for yard over C&D in March but not as good in three starts since. Had more use made of her on those occasions and failed to get home. Zabdi can force the pace up front and she would not want to get into a duel.
No chance with an all the way winning favourite at Wolverhampton. Gradually getting the grasp of things and has little to find.
Losing run stretches back two years and mark has dropped 23lb in the interim. Stable have been going well but it will take more than that for him to succeed.
Had a stiff reassessment following his emphatic success in February when he was able to dictate the pace. Has looked too high in the weights since and that still appears the case.
Winner of five AW races but ran abysmally last time. Yard are without a winner since January and trip looks on the sharp side.
Better back on an AW surface last time and with current headgear applied. Still needs to improve on that.
Goes well for this rider and steps up in trip having failed to exploit a handicapping loophole 12 days ago. Looks in need of this extra furlong and arrives with fewer questions to answer than most in this lineup.
Soundly beaten in a couple of poor AW maidens on last two starts. Hard to argue he may be well handicapped but has less miles on the clock and market support would make him interesting.
Mark has reached a level where he has become more productive having gone 19 races without a win. In form rider 5-15 for the stable.
Sprang a surprise when landing a weak race here in April over 6f. Has looked keen so the extra furlong has to be a concern.

Forecasts
Misu Pete (10/3), Mythical Spirit (4/1), Forever Yours (5/1), Zabdi (8/1), See You Mush (9/1), Kings Heart (10/1), Do You Know (10/1), Caledonian Gold (10/1), Out Of The Ashes (12/1), Noble Act (16/1), Top Offer (16/1), Mime Dance (25/1), Miss Anticipation (25/1), The Firm (33/1)
Zabdi and Noble Act may take each other on which may set this up for a closer such as Kings Heart or FOREVER YOURS. Kings Heart is stepping up in trip but may have missed the boat having failed off a 4lb lower mark last time. FOREVER YOURS is lightly raced and produced his best effort so far when chasing home a well backed rival last time. An extra furlong will help here and the yard's horses are going well.
