Hoof Hustle Handicap

Has built a fine record at Musselburgh and showed his best form in over 2 years when he won there 36 days ago. Needs to prove as effective away from that track but a 2 lb rise still leaves him very competitive.

€190,000 son of Kodiac who showed promise away from testing conditions as a juvenile. Possessed sharper turn of foot than short-price favourite when winning a match at Leicester (1m) last month but didn't look an easy ride at York 18 days ago. Back in distance,

Free-going type who showed fair form for Ollie Pears and wasted little time making an impact for current connections when winning 7f handicap at Brighton in June, showing improved form in the process. Matched that form when second at Doncaster and looks one to beat from the same mark.

Built on debut promise when landing a 7.5f maiden here in August 2025 but she hardly set the world alight in a trio of handicap starts at up to 1¼m during the spring. Drops back in distance on return from a break post breathing operation.

Dual course winner last season who was given a considerate ride on belated reappearance here 2 weeks ago, This will reveal more.

Musselburgh winner on soft in October but has done nothing of note since.

Yet to win but he was eased in grade and posted a very good second of 6 here 24 days ago, albeit no match for the winner. Back up in grade but a repeat of that will see him competitive again.
