Last week's C&D success made it 3 wins in his last 4 starts on the Flat. Has more to do under a penalty but he's very much at the top of his game.

Ended losing run in C&D handicap last summer for Jim Goldie. Easily best effort for new yard when ½-length third of 6 to Gemini Man over C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago and she's weighted to turn the tables on that rival now.

5/4
Made little impact on the Flat or over hurdles in Ireland but different proposition when comfortably landing a gamble for new trainer Daragh Bourke at Ayr (13f, soft) 11 days ago. Could take a bit of stopping if in a similar mood.

Just the one win to his name but has been runner-up twice at Hamilton this month, albeit beaten 7 lengths last time.

Has a poor strike rate but plenty of placed efforts to her name, including over 9f here on her first 2 outings of 2026. Respectable fifth over 1m here last time. Significantly up in trip.

Forecasts

Is She Now (5/4), Gemini Man (5/2), Falaise Blanc (10/3), Sophiesticate (11/2), Storm On Jura (33/1), On The Bubble (33/1)

Verdict

If IS SHE NOW is in the same form as at Ayr she's probably the one to beat again. Sophiesticate can turn the tables on last week's C&D conqueror Gemini Man and give Daragh Bourke's mare most to do.

  1. Is She Now5/4

  3. Gemini Man5/2
