'Timeform Sprint Series Qualifier' Handicap (Div 2)

Winning start for this yard back from 10 months off at Newmarket in July but hasn't built on it since, albeit faced with a stiff task in the Portland 33 days ago. Has won over C&D previously.

Finished 11th of 13 at Doncaster (14/1) 32 days ago and current trainer has yet to find the key. Without a win in 18 races.

Won on debut at Tipperary before finishing third at Musselburgh. Finished second of 10 in a novice at Newmarket (11/8) 418 days ago, travelling well but couldn't quicken late on. Gelded after. Making handicap debut and remains a potentially useful sprinter.

C&D winner. Fourth of 12 in handicap at Kempton Park (16/1) 40 days ago, took keen hold and had every chance 1f out but couldn't quicken. Blinkers back on and should be competitive down in class.

Multiple runner-up finishes this year and winless for 14 runs, second of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (9/2) 33 days ago after typical slow start but finished well. Course winner who could go close.

Finished fourth in three consecutive turf handicaps, most recently at Newmarket (10/1) 26 days ago when fading late despite travelling well. First-time blinkers replace tongue strap.

Won at Windsor in May. 2 runner-up finishes at Newmarket (6f) in August before ninth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (4/1) 22 days ago, slowly into stride and never threatening. Proven inconsistent so far.

Won at Doncaster last month. 4th of 14 at Nottingham (9/2) 14 days ago from highest stall. Handles 6f well and could figure.

Mixed form in AW handicaps, including a C&D win. 11th of 13 in handicap at Southwell (40/1) 13 days ago, probably needed the run after 8 months off.
