Three wins from 16 runs last year. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap (7/4) at this course (6f) 11 days ago, comfortably. Has to be taken seriously, despite going up 8 lb for that.
|
Lightly-raced winner. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm, 11/2). Off 150 days ahead of this tapeta debut. Plenty to find on form.
|
Course winner. 14/1, below form eighth of 16 in handicap at York (6f, good). Off 177 days and he looks vulnerable from a win perspective.
|
C&D winner. Latest win here in November. Ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 31 days ago. Each-way claims if on a going day.
|
50/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 17 days ago. Readily passed over.
|
Lightly-raced winner. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good, 22/1). Off 135 days ahead of this debut for new yard. Needs to get back on track.
|
First run since leaving Rebecca Menzies when respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 80/1) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Significantly down in trip and can make his presence felt.
|
Lightly-raced winner. One win from 3 runs last year. 66/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 31 days ago. Others more persuasive on balance.
|
Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. Tongue strap back on and he's not without each-way hope.
|
Unreliable sort. 10/1, below form 6½ lengths fifth of 12 to The Caltonian in handicap at this course (6f) 11 days ago, slowly away. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
|
Latest win at Ayr in September. 6/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 12 days ago. Likely to come up short once again.

Forecasts
The Caltonian (8/11), Westmorian (15/2), Zuffolo (10/1), Rory (10/1), Honour Your Dreams (12/1), Glory Fighter (14/1), Quandary (16/1), Whisky McGonagall (20/1), Love Your Work (25/1), Aconcagua Mountain (33/1), Rogue De Vega (100/1)
THE CALTONIAN has sprouted wings since switched to the all-weather and an 8 lb rise for his cosy success over 6f here recently is unlikely to be enough to stop him in his tracks. The 5-y-o coped well with the minimum trip when a close third over C&D three starts back and he should get a strong pace to aim at in this contest. Love Your Work and Honour Your Dreams both make each-way appeal, while an on-song Zuffolo would also be in with a shout.
