Four-time winner in 2025 and, though below par at Southwell when last seen in January, she won't be far away if raring to go following a break of almost 4 months.
|
Yet to add to 2-y-o Wolverhampton maiden success but has made the frame all 3 starts since undergoing a breathing operation, finding just one too good over 1m at Kempton the last twice. Well worth another try at this trip.
|
Plenty of promise last year but yet to fire since returning from a break and others make more appeal.
|
Landed back-to-back turf handicaps here upon joining Denis Quinn last year. Ended time with that yard on a bit of a downer but good third starting out for Adam Kirby last month and he's one to consider with eyeshields enlisted.
|
Gained second win of the year when scoring at Newcastle last summer but more miss than hit since and others look stronger.
|
Came good at the sixteenth attempt when leading close home in a C&D handicap in February. Out with the washing at Nottingham recently but the limited evidence available suggests that he's simply not effective on turf.
|
Showed promise in maiden/novice company initially but it's been a struggle since switched to handicaps.
|
Placed on a few occasions after joining this yard last season, including when third in a 10-runner handicap over this trip at Redcar on latest appearance in October. Now 0-19 but not without each-way hope.
|
Successful once during a 12-race campaign on all-weather/turf in France last year. 9-month absence is a concern ahead of this yard debut and he's probably worth taking on.
|
Finished third for the fourth successive race over 1½m here in February but nearer last than first at Kempton next time. Struggled over hurdles on his latest start and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Forecasts
Penfolds Grange (15/8), Lenny's Spirit (3/1), Romantic Spirit (7/1), Onslow Gardens (10/1), Joseph (10/1), Etretat (12/1), Hello Cotai (12/1), Voix De Bocelli (14/1), Criminal (16/1), Blue Wonder (33/1)
The vote goes to PENFOLDS GRANGE, who has been knocking on the door of late and the return to this trip could be a good move. Lenny's Spirit made a positive start for this yard when a close third over C&D last month and he is feared most ahead of Romantic Spirit.
