All 5 career victories gained on artificial surfaces, the latest at Chelmsford (7f) in April. However, he's been unable to make an impact on each of his last 3 starts back on turf and others arrive with more pressing claims despite tumbling mark.
|
Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 15 in handicap at this course (7f, good, 15/2) 9 days ago. Expected to be bang there with this drop back in trip expected to suit.
|
Latest win at Musselburgh in May. 14/1, last of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 25 days ago, left behind over 2f out. Needs to bounce back.
|
Ended long losing run when taking 6-runner handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy, 7/2) 27 days ago, driven out. 3 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent him making his presence felt back in class 6 company.
|
22/1, not at best back under more positive tactics when sixth of 10 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 18 days ago, weakening when short of room inside final 1f. Remains early days at least and she's no forlorn hope.
|
Arrives on a lengthy losing run but finished runner-up on 2 of his 4 starts on AW earlier this year. Off 6 months and interesting what the market makes of him.
|
Twenty six runs since last win in 2020. 4/1, creditable 1¼ lengths third of 11 to Wade's Magic in handicap at this C&D (good) 22 days ago, no extra only late on. Clearly in good heart at present but losing run tempers enthusiasm.
|
Twenty five runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 9/1) 13 days ago, staying on final 1f. Handicapper has afforded him a chance.
|
Cotai Glory filly who ran best race yet when third of 13 in handicap at Redcar (6f) in June. However, not in same form (reportedly bled) when sixth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (6f) when last seen 51 days ago. Bounce back certainly not ruled out.
|
Irish raider who ended last year well below form and, easy to back, offered little returning from 11 months off/yard debut when last in handicap at Beverley 3 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind if she's to figure.
|
C&D winner. 9/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago, weakening from 2f out. Hood/tongue need to have positive effect now.
|
C&D winner. Latest win here in August. 9/2, not seen to best effect when ninth of 18 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 4 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Forecasts
Wade's Magic (7/2), Enderman (7/2), Langholm (4/1), Shark Two One (11/2), John Kirkup (6/1), One More Dream (16/1), Gunnerside (16/1), Sparkling Spirit (18/1), Ohnojoe (25/1), Aurora Glory (28/1), Gowanbuster (40/1), Takana (66/1)
LANGHOLM is going through a good spell, again running with plenty of credit when finishing a close-up third over 7f here 9 days ago. Operating 3 lb below his last winning mark, the drop back to 6f will hold no fears and he can make a bold bid. Nottingham-scorer Enderman back in class 6 company and Wade's Magic head up the dangers.
