Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 11/2, fared no better when fifth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 41 days ago. Back on turf for the first time in nearly 2 years and can go well.
|
Won 3 times in 2022 but wasn't able to match that level last year until November, when she finished runner-up in 17-runner handicap at Newmarket. Shaped as if needing the run after 4 months off at Doncaster (7f, soft) 19 days ago so she should be much closer to form.
|
13/2, below form when seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 34 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Bolted up on her only previous start on turf at Nottingham (heavy) last year so she warrants considerable respect.
|
Improved when runner-up on handicap debut at Newmarket in summer 2022 and winner of 7f/1m AW handicaps on final 3 starts of that year. Arrives on the same mark and this lightly-raced 6-y-o will be a danger to all if fully tuned-up following a 17-month absence.
|
28/1, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 42 days ago. Now 5 lb below his last winning mark and enters calculations back on turf.
|
Course winner. Latest win at Nottingham in October. 12/1, shaped as if needing the run after 5 months off when seventh of 9 in handicap at Bath (5f, heavy) 5 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces back on.
|
2/1, showed improved form to get off the mark faced with softer ground than previously in 8-runner handicap at this course (6f, soft) when last seen 8 months ago. Returns 4 lb higher and should have no trouble with this extra distance.
|
14/1 and blinkered for 1st time, didn't look too willing under pressure when seventh of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f) when last seen 5 months ago. Headgear left off and will need to raise her game.

Forecasts
Cold Stare (7/2), Ring of Light (4/1), Spirit Of Breeze (4/1), Dayman (6/1), Cue's Beau (7/1), Willingly (8/1), Shandy Star (10/1), Believe You Me (12/1)
Plenty in with a squeak but having handled very testing ground when winning her only previous turf start at Nottingham last year, CUE'S BEAU is selected to come out on top for Ed Dunlop. She can get the better of Cold Stare, who is now 5 lb below his last winning mark and should have no issue with conditions. Dayman can edge out Spirit of Breeze for third spot.
