Wells Memorial Challenge Trophy Handicap

11/2, bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good) 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Remains early days with him and reappearance second at Leicester was an encouraging display. Not one to write off.

Fairly useful form at 2, winning a 5f Beverley nursery before a good second at York (6f) on final start in September. Possibly in need of the run following 9 months off when seventh of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 18 days ago. Should be sharper now with cheekpieces applied.

Successful making nursery debut at Thirsk (6f) on final start for Ralph Beckett last summer. Changed hands for 18,000 gns thereafter but yet to scale same heights in pair of starts for new yard in handicaps at Ripon/Carlisle. Mark is steadily easing at least.

Matched pick of her form when landing 3-runner conditions' event at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in September. Showed benefit of reappearance run when third of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (6f) 17 days ago and she's one to consider here.

Proving consistent prior to taking a step forward to register a first success on turf in quite taking fashion when landing 6-runner handicap at Hamilton (6f) 7 days ago. Very much of interest under a penalty.

Bright start to the season, making a bold bid from the front when second at Redcar (5f, soft) in May. Rare slow start forced a change of tactics when sixth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago and better showing anticipated.

Profitable gelding who showed much improved form on quicker ground when second of 8 in a C&D novice 2 weeks ago, going down only to a potentially useful sort. Can do better again now handicapping.

Latest win at Catterick in May. 10/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago, plugging on final 1f. Building up a solid profile in handicaps and another holding claims kept to 6f.
