Four wins and two seconds in six starts on the AW in the past, but he has not run on this surface since April 2023. Has spent much of his career competing in much stronger company than this, and might finally be able to find his form again now that he is returned to Polytrack.

Copes well with soft ground, a Group 2 winner last year on this surface. Bounced back to winning ways at York last time out when dropped into handicap company, and shouldn't find it any more difficult in a Listed race where he has a few pounds in hand at the weights.

Just 1/16 in her career, but that came over hurdles from this same mark of 95. Didn't run badly on her chase debut at Fontwell, just starting to backpedal when unseating three out. The first and second have won since, which suggests it was a strong race for a Class 5. Richie McLernon is back on her, finishing placed both times he has had the ride.

Smart Type in his youth, but he has been on the slide for a while now. Ran okay to a point in his first two starts this season for this yard with cheekpieces on, but not so well last time with them missing. Back on here and down eight pounds from the mark he arrived in Ireland on, so has place claims.

Well-supported when runner-up over C&D on soft ground back in July from the same mark. Held up out the back that day in a race where the first two from the start finished first and third, so it is a run that can be marked up a bit. Not a regular winner but there is more pace on here, so it might drop better for him.

Not the most consistent, but these are his underfoot conditions and he has gone fine when fresh in the past. Doesn't have too many miles on the clock, so there should still be better to come, and should appreciate the return to this shorter trip on his first start of the season.

Has finished last on each of his last three starts, all on turf and should do better back on Tapeta. His two career wins have both come at this track, the latter over this trip. His first win came when he had a hood for the first time, his second with a tongue tie for the first time, and now he gets cheekpieces for the first time. It could be the right race to back him in.

Sole runner on the card for her southern yard, who are 4/11 with their runners at this track so far in 2025 and 33% overall. One of those wins was this filly, who lost her action in a Chepstow contest, the only time that she has been seen since that success.

Seven furlongs on the AW was perhaps not ideal on her debut for this yard. Won at Thirsk on good to soft ground last September, and perhaps the return to softer turf can help her from a two-pound lower mark.

Tough to trust completely as he is horribly inconsistent, but he is a C&D winner of a similar level contest back in April and is only two pounds higher here. Has run limited times for one of his age, so he might still have a little better to come.

Form ties in closely with Station X, who she was a short head behind in a nursery at this track last season and then half a length behind at Ayr last time out. These conditions suit.

Makes his chase and handicap debut in a weak enough contest. He has gone well fresh in the past as well as with some cut in the ground. His one half-sibling, who has been seen over fences, improved on hurdles form over the bigger obstacles, and his dam is a half-sister to Al Ferof, who was another to improve for chasing.

Needed every inch of this C&D on her handicap debut when winning on the quickest ground that she has faced. She had won on softer prior to that at Chepstow, so she is clearly adaptable with underfoot conditions, slightly more cut here than the good to firm last time. A five-pound rise for that win is more than fair, and she should still have progression in her.
