13/8

Made a successful debut in 4-runner all-weather Lingfield maiden on sole start in 2025. Got back on track when second in novice at same course on turf in May but looked uncomfortable on track at Chepstow on handicap debut last time. Tongue tie goes back on and can bounce back.

3/1

Won a Dundalk maiden (1m) on fifth outing last year for Ger Lyons. Improved when second of 14 at York over 6f in June, though found it tougher upped in grade over that same C&D just over 2 weeks ago. Should find this easier and is dangerous if allowed his own way in front.

Form: 12-5720

11/8

Only had to step up a little on juvenile efforts to make it third time lucky in 6f Newbury maiden on return before finding a good chunk of improvement when following up at Newmarket on handicap debut. Found run of good form coming to halt in competitive race last time. Type to get back on track.

Form: 22-110

Ayr maiden winner early last season who was an excellent sixth in Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot next time when trained by John S. O'Donoghue. Well held both starts this season for new yard. Hard to make a case for.

ART LOVER showed enough on return to suggest he can finally get his head in front in handicap company. Ray Mon Dough and Sea Cookie head the list of dangers in an interesting 3-y-o race.
