Settled better than has often been the case when finally off the mark in a 10-runner handicap (7/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago, suited by emphasis on speed. Looks competitive on form.
|
Yet to show much in maiden/novice events, though step up in trip should suit in theory. Blinkers/tongue strap on 1st time.
|
Fared better than of late when second at Kempton in March and ran respectably enough when fifth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (7.5f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Not guaranteed to benefit from this longer trip, though.
|
Runner-up at Wolverhampton twice early in the year, though hasn't really threatened on any of her last 4 starts, albeit probably not suited by a steady gallop there last time. Makes turf debut.
|
Five-time course winner showed there's sill plenty of life in him when second of 11 in handicap (28/1) at Kempton (1½m) on return from almost a year off 19 days ago. Will be in the mix again if producing a similar effort this time.
|
Maiden was ninth of 15 in handicap at this course (1¼m, good to firm, 40/1) 16 days ago. Hard to fancy.
|
Modest maiden for Karl Burke. Missed the bulk of 2025 and has shown nothing in 4 all-weather starts for current connections this year. Makes turf debut having had a breathing operation.
|
Made more impact with the run of the race when third of 7 in handicap (12/1) at Newcastle (16.3f) 20 days ago. Not ruled out back down in trip.
|
Still unproven at this trip and he was below form when seventh of 8 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to firm, 17/2) 42 days ago.
|
Poor maiden fared no better in cheekpieces when ninth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (1¾m, 50/1) 87 days ago. Makes turf debut. Visored for 1st time.
|
Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago. Place claims back in classified company.
|
Down the field all 3 starts last year but after 8 months off (gelded) he took a step forward when fourth of 10 on handicap debut at Yarmouth (1¼m) in April. Went backwards from that when down the field at Lingfield 9 days ago, so need to bounce back.
|
Lightning Spear filly from a family the yard know well. Little sign of ability in 3 quick runs last year. Now goes up in trip after 7 months off in first-time cheekpieces.

Guinness Lad (11/10), Lawn Ranger (5/1), Gearing's Point (5/1), Nymphaea (6/1), Panthere Noir (8/1), Fletcher (10/1), Dream Of Ithaca (12/1), Arenas Del Tiempo (12/1), Nala The Lioness (14/1), Late Claim (14/1), Dubai Harbour (16/1), Qaaeadd (18/1), Scammer (40/1), Majestic Leo (40/1), Lilykoy (66/1), Clough (100/1)
PANTHERE NOIR isn't long with this yard and ran well over C&D last time, so he gets the verdict. Guinness Lad, who concedes weight all round after scoring in a C&D handicap last week, is feared most, while veteran Lawn Ranger can complete the 1-2-3.
