For The Love Of Horses Handicap

In a rich vein of form of late, winning 3 of his last 4 starts, most recently in ready fashion at Southwell (6/4F) 10 days ago. Up a further 6 lb but hard to believe he won't again be highly competitive, especially as he's drawn the plum stall.

Returned to form when 1¼ lengths second of 8 to Thecoffeepoddotco at Lingfield at the end of last month. Races off the same mark here but wide draw is no help.

Ran consistently well without winning in second half of last season, beaten a nose over C&D when last seen in October. Returns from over 4 months off with a very inexperienced claimer on board and tends to need first run back after a break, too.

Multiple C&D winner who was breaking a lengthy losing sequence when making all and holding Shalaa Asker by a neck here last time out. On a good mark on that form, though question marks over whether he'll be at concert pitch having been off almost 4 months since.

Consistent type who found trip too far when having a rare outing over 6f last time out. Does need things to drop right given his come-from-behind style but fair to assume this return to 5f will suit.

Still a maiden thanks to a tendency to miss the break, though did get away on terms and had every chance when third of 6 at Wolverhampton last time.

Twice a winner over C&D but hasn't had much luck with wide trips recently. Has slipped to an attractive mark and no surprise if he outruns his odds over optimum trip with this good-value apprentice up for the first time.

Largely struggled for form in 2025 and has been off for 3 months, too.
