Got off the mark in ready fashion at Newcastle (6f) in December. Raised 9 lb and brushed aside both starts since but this represents a pretty big drop in class returned to turf.

Maiden but went close at Newcastle (5f) at the start of the year. Weakened out of it over 6f at Pontefract 2 weeks ago and suspicion is that the minimum trip is his optimum.

Runner-up 3 times in a fairly busy juvenile campaign. Didn't always look straightforward, though and was eased right off on final start in November.

Minor promise only in 4 starts at up to 6f but he is in good hands ahead of this reappearance fitted with cheekpieces.

Signed off for 2025 with a Newcastle win over 6f and he shaped well when third back over that C&D last month, rearing leaving the stalls. Issues at the start remain a concern back on turf but he should be very competitive.

Left qualifying form trailing in her wake when runner-up on handicap debut at Newcastle last month (Auspicious third). Up just 1 lb and this lightly-raced filly can win races from her basement mark.

Showed a bit in second run on turf last summer but very little to shout about since.

No impact in a trio of quick runs but worth a market check on reappearance/handicap debut with cheekpieces on.

Forecasts

Watchdog (2/1), Gunalt Wavelength (7/2), Belling The Cat (9/2), Long Shot (11/2), Auspicious (8/1), Mystical Land (17/2), Muvable (20/1), Miss Boyd (40/1)

Verdict

BELLING THE CAT showed much more than previously when runner-up at Newcastle last month and on that effort, she can strike from her lowly mark. Auspicious shaped well when one place behind the selection that day but cannot afford to miss the break at this venue, with Watchdog of some interest down in grade.
