Won back-to-back classified stakes at Southwell in March but appeared to find the run coming too soon when bidding for a hat-trick back in a handicap at that course last time. Capable 7 lb apprentice booked.
|
Scored twice at Wolverhampton in 2025 and arrives on the back of 2 respectable efforts there on his last 2 outings. Yard in good heart and below last winning mark. Player.
|
Ended a losing run stretching back to early-2023 when winning classified events at Wolverhampton and Lingfield later in January. Has struggled in handicaps both starts since, though, and not seen on turf since July 2024.
|
Daughter of U S Navy Flag cost 3,000 gns as a foal and hasn't been able to match her modest debut form in 3 outings since, including on handicap debut. Makes turf debut.
|
Veteran who held form well in 2025, registering 2 wins at Wolverhampton. Not ideally placed when last of 8 at Southwell last time, but yard is going through a quiet spell at present.
|
A 3-time winner in 2024, but was largely disappointing last year and, though well treated on those earlier efforts, he's hard to recommend on return here.
|
Got off the mark 7f classified event at Lingfield in January and has run well since with back-to-back thirds, finishing a length behind Maury in 9-runner handicap at same course last time. Should be competitive on those efforts, though possibly best up to 1m.
|
Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs, though went close in a handicap at Redcar last year. The 2 efforts that followed that have hardly been encouraging, though, and others make more appeal.
|
Barely beaten a rival last 5 starts and can easily be passed over.
|
Modest filly who didn't kick on from 2 in frame efforts in handicaps around this time last year. First run after a breathing operation and for new yard.

Forecasts
Sceptic (5/2), Back From Dubai (4/1), Fifty Sent (11/2), Evelyn's Phoenix (13/2), Al Baahy (17/2), Penny Ghent (10/1), Freedom Bay (11/1), Bizarre Law (14/1), Tilsworth Max (25/1), Molly Marine (28/1)
SCEPTIC has gone a while without a turf win but arrives in good form after some solid recent efforts on the all-weather and, now below his last winning mark, is fancied to record a fifth career success. Fifty Sent and Back From Dubai are respected.
