Had quite a solid record on turf last summer. Respectable fourth on all-weather and turf this spring and perhaps the addition of blinkers simply backfired when well held at Bath latest. Cheekpieces return now.
|
C&D winner but below par on final start last year and has no great record fresh.
|
Course winner. Twenty one runs since last success in 2024. Respectable fifth of 15 in handicap back on turf at Windsor (1ÂĽm, good to firm, 4/1) 17 days ago.
|
Mostly respectable efforts since joining Tony Carroll, including twice reaching the frame back on turf at Windsor (1ÂĽm, good to firm) last month. Cheekpieces off, first-time blinkers and tongue strap on. Enters calculations.
|
Won on Dundalk's all-weather last November. Respectable fifth there in December/January. Sold out of Joseph O'Brien's stable for 8,000 gns in February. Unexposed but the betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations for new yard.
|
Modest maiden who has failed to make a significant impact in handicaps at Lingfield (all-weather/turf this spring). Others are more persuasive.
|
Very good return to action when finding only one too good at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) in April and possible excuse for a lesser run at Wolverhampton since.
|
Encouraging third of 11 in handicap (22/1) at Lingfield (7.6f, good to soft) on reappearance 21 days ago. Equally as effective over this trip. Could make a bold bid for a first career success.
|
C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (33/1) at Windsor (1ÂĽm, good to firm) on reappearance 33 days ago. Considered back at venue which suits.
|
Rattled off a hat-trick in 1ÂĽm handicaps last summer, including this race. Hasn't fired in 4 outings this year but well handicapped and a revival isn't ruled out at a track he runs so well.
|
Ended losing run here (1½m) last August but out of sorts under both codes since.
|
Winner at Lingfield in January. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (1m, good, 8/1) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. Not taken lightly.
|
C&D winner. Got the job done in a 7-runner classified event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March but has found life tougher since, including only ninth of 11 in 1m course handicap 11 days ago.

Letsbeatsepsis (9/2), Night Bear (5/1), Love You More (5/1), Little Tiger (6/1), Bohemian Breeze (15/2), Celebrating Ethel (11/1), Power Of Prayer (12/1), Masqool (12/1), Monks Mead (12/1), Turpin (14/1), Celtic John (16/1), Fighting Poet (16/1), Twilight Guest (22/1), Foinix (28/1)
CELTIC JOHN shaped as if a return to 1ÂĽm will suit when fourth over 1m here last time and might prove the answer to this open handicap. Letsbeatsepsis is feared on the back of a good reappearance, while Fighting Poet and last year's victor Twilight Guest very much know where the winning post is here.
- Celtic John16/1
- Fighting Poet16/1
