Travelled strongly for a long way but was headed towards the finish when 2nd of 12, beaten a head over 6 furlongs at Chelmsford at the end of last month. The drop in trip appeals for this former course winner.

Beaten three lengths over 7 furlongs here 11 days ago in an amateur race, and the drop in trip with Cam Hardie back on board appeals.

A 15 race 3 year old maiden carries an element of caution but placed in 3 races over six here offers hope. One of those was over this trip under today's jockey beaten a length and a quarter off a 3 pound higher mark in September 2025. Failed to build on that when well beaten 5 days later also over course and distance but arguably that race came too soon and beaten a length and a quarter off a mark of 56 over course and distance on the 1st of November. Worth another look over this trip following 3 races over 7 furlongs here.

Ran on inside the final furlong when third of seven over a mile in a Class 5 here on Saturday. Turned round quickly for this. Remains on the same mark but has Lauren Young taking an attractive-looking 5-pound allowance this evening. That, combined with the drop in trip and ease in grade to Class 6, is appealing.

Wore the first-time blinkers when a respectable third of seventeen over the extended 2 miles at Exeter last month. That run was on the back of a 7-month absence, which he should come on for. Possible further improvement to come with the blinkers retained.

A course-and-distance winner off a 10-pound higher mark back in 2022, and twice a runner-up off higher marks too. Off the track for nearly a year when reappearing over an inadequate trip at Ayr in September, then well beaten over this trip at York in October. Won over a mile and three-quarters at Redcar on the penultimate start, and found the extended mile and a half here too sharp last time out. This step up in trip will suit.

Flash Gorcombe is now a pound below his last winning mark of 103, which was over a furlong shorter on soft ground at Exeter in January 2025. He struggled in four subsequent races last season off higher marks. He will come on for a recent run over course and distance following a 210-day absence.

Third over course and distance, beaten less than a length off a mark of 46 on the penultimate start, and a good winner at Chelmsford over this trip last time out. Up to a mark of 52 now, but with Donagh Murphy's 7-pound claim, is effectively a pound below that recent course-and-distance run.

A beaten favourite over course and distance beat 2.75 lengths off a 2-pound higher mark wearing blinkers on the penultimate start. Disappointed at Wolverhampton last time out where the blinkers were replaced with cheekpieces.

A previous winner over half a furlong shorter here in 2023, and his last win came over a furlong further off a mark of 144 at Kempton in November 2024. Just five races since that win and he is now down to a mark of 138. He will come on for a recent run here last month when well beaten but in need of the run following a seven-month absence. Trainer Nicky Henderson's horses are in good form, with seven winners from the last 30 runners.
