Smooth-travelling mare who was thriving when successful over C&D last summer. Back in top form when narrowly denied a third Cartmel win in mid-July. Again contests a stronger contested than needed, however, should still be in the hunt if returning from 11 weeks away in similar heart.

Strong-travelling type. Resumed progress over hurdles when winning a 2½m course handicap in May. Lost nothing in defeat on the Flat the following month. Still on a handy mark over hurdles, though this drop back in trip isn't certain to suit.

Successful 3 times in the early part of last season. Performed with credit in good-quality handicaps subsequently, doing a bit much early when beaten 7 lengths in the Swinton on final start for Jack Jones. Interesting with hood added/sights lowered by new yard (38% strike rate so far in 2026/7).

Had strong handicap form at the beginning of last season, notably his third behind Alexei at Ascot. Gained reward for his consistency in Class 3 event at Wincanton in March and can be forgiven subsequent end-of-season effort. Big player back in calmer waters, with yard in fine form of late.

Capitalised on a drop in class in emphatic fashion when landing a second C&D victory (both on heavy) in May. Deserves credit for finishing close fourth off this mark under less testing conditions here subsequently. Could just be vulnerable in this grade following a recent pipe-opener on the Flat.

Maiden who finished third in back-to-back handicaps at Wexford for J. P. Dempsey last summer. Shaped quite well when beaten 8½ lengths in a solid Market Rasen handicap on stable debut/return in July. Interesting if building on that following further 12 weeks away.
