Won 5f maiden in Ireland last summer. Promising start for new yard when runner-up in 6f handicaps for at Thirsk (soft) and Doncaster (firm) last month. Well drawn in stall 3. Likely to be winning soon.

Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 13/2) 9 days ago. Has fallen to 2 lb below the mark he won from at Goodwood last summer. Should have a part to play.

Second win of 2024 when scoring by 6 lengths at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) at the start of May. Respectable third back there since. One to consider.

10/1
Caused a 25/1 surprise in this race 12 months. Mixed record later in 2023 but he did perform with credit when fourth of 16 in 6f Newmarket handicap when last seen in November. Has had wind surgery ahead of reappearance.

17/2
Three-time winner on turf during 2023 who is proving a model of consistency this time around, making the placings for sixth consecutive start when third at Hamilton (6f, soft) 17 days ago. Her draw isn't ideal here.

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022 but his 2 efforts this year have been creditable, shaping as if ready for a return to 6f when third of 9 over 5f at Beverley last month. Handily berthed in 2. Likely to go well.
