Improved on debut form when runner-up in a Chelmsford novice in January last year. However, well held at Newcastle next time and absent 16 months since ahead of first run since leaving Sir Mark Prescott Bt (sold for 1,000 gns). Makes handicap debut.

Held his form well in second half of last year, successful at Beverley and Musselburgh. Has looked to be working his way back in 2 starts this season, drawn widest and again ridden more patiently than usual when seventh of 10 at Pontefract last month.

Showed plenty to work on when making the frame in novice at Southwell (1½m) in April. Tailed off only 11 days later, but got back to more like his debut form when fourth of 6 in maiden at this course (1¼m) 25 days ago. Drops in trip as he goes handicapping.

Sole success over 1m at Newcastle in October. Encouraging fourth in 8-runner contest here (7f) last month but hasn't built on that 2 starts since, twelfth of 18 at Doncaster (1m) 6 days ago. Worth a market check with his win coming off this same mark.

Opened account on only fourth start for present trainer at Kempton in December. Yet to fire this year, eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton 19 days ago, though he's dropped back down in the weights as a result.

Maiden who made the frame at Beverley on second of 2 starts last spring. However, after 10 months off he was found to have had an irregular heartbeat when well held at Southwell in March. Absent again since.

Remains with just the one career victory, but placed 3 times at this course in 2025 and left this season's return behind when fourth of 11 here (7f) 26 days ago. Could be thereabouts making only third career start at this trip.

Has shown fair form switched to handicaps this year, running up to his best when 2 lengths fifth of 10 at Wolverhampton (7f) last month. Can give his running as he drops in grade here.

Made a winning nursery debut at Pontefract (6f) for Jonathan Portman last summer and posted easily best effort for current yard when third at Doncaster (7f) in April, form boosted by the second since. Possibly unsuited by soft ground at Haydock last time, so could bounce back.

Built on encouragement of previous effort when 1½ lengths fourth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle 18 days ago, the first 2 both scoring again since. Enters calculations from 12 lb below last winning mark.

Long-standing maiden who again finished well held when tenth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (1½m) 16 days ago.

Some encouragement when third of 6 in novice at Catterick (7f) in April on debut. Hasn't progressed in 2 subsequent outings, fifth of 9 in maiden at Thirsk 15 days ago, but could yet do better upped in trip for handicap bow.
