10/3, good second of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) when last seen in August. Has undergone a wind op in the meantime and live each-way chance if he's ready to roll.
|
C&D winner. Respectable 2¼ lengths third of 8 to Pepsi Cat in handicap (18/5) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago. Place possibilities.
|
C&D winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. 16/5, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago. Clearly at the top of her game but 4 lb rise could leave her vulnerable this time.
|
5/1, first run since leaving Sir Mark Prescott Bt when good second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 12 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Strong claims.
|
Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (4/1) at Southwell (5f) 8 days ago, running on. Shade more needed under a penalty here but she's a player nonetheless.
|
Seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, 66/1) 70 days ago, doing too much too soon. Best to look elsewhere.
|
C&D winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 4 lengths fifth of 8 to Pepsi Cat in handicap (9/2) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago, never nearer. Would have a fighting chance if on-song.
|
Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 4/1) 4 days ago. Blinkers back on and he's likely to come up short once more.
|
9/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. 3 lb lower here and she has to enter calculations.

Forecasts
Moon Flight (13/8), Rodborough (7/2), Pepsi Cat (4/1), Ramon Di Loria (10/1), Nelson Gay (11/1), Mokaatil (11/1), Majeski Man (18/1), Not Too Real Bad (20/1), Dark Kestrel (40/1)
The vote goes to MOON FLIGHT, who made a positive start for this yard in a Class 3 handicap at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and he remains unexposed at this trip. Cases can also be made for several of his rivals in this competitive handicap, with Not Too Real Bad feared most on the back of a solid recent effort at Southwell where she was runner-up off a 3 lb higher mark. Majeski Man will be a threat if fully tuned-up, while Rodborough needs a close look, too.
