Sole AW win came off 7lb higher at Wolverhampton (1m4f) just under a year ago; not clear run when fifth to surprise winner Duchess at Southwell (1m3f, also Tapeta) ten days ago; 3lb pull can only help and he copes with Polytrack; first-time cheekpieces.
Maiden who regularly fluffs the start; good second twice in May (1m2f, good to firm) but hasn't fared nearly so well since returning from a layoff; others hold greater appeal.
Unplaced in three 7f maidens for Jim Bolger in the summer of 2024 and subsequently gelded; picked up for 1,000gns in July and offered something to work on when fifth of eight on stable debut at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) last month; that was his first start for 506 days and should be sharper this time.
No immediate improvement for the switch to handicaps when ninth of 14 at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) in November; unexposed and it's still early days, though.
Multiple winner at 1m2f-1m4f, including here, but he only made the track once last year, when beaten 15l in an amateur riders' event at Bath in September; hard to know what to expect on this return from another break.
Dual Tapeta winner who landed a fourth career win when making all at Bath (1m5f, good to firm) in September; didn't match that in two AW runs subsequently but may have been freshened up by a break.
Didn't live up to 105,000gns yearling price for Charles Hills and left that yard for 1,000gns in October; always behind on her stable/handicap debut at Lingfield (1m2f, Polytrack) one month ago; up in trip but only of interest with market support.
Doubled her tally when popping up at 28-1 at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta; Karismatique third, Sisterandbrother fifth) ten days ago; 4lb penalty and she's not guaranteed to confirm those placings but can still make her presence felt again.
All starts at 11.5f since handicapping; yet to score but she's shown enough to win a race and it was a close third of four when last seen at Yarmouth in August; contender if ready to go after 164-day break.
Didn't progress for previous yard and was beaten 26l on her last start (1m2f, good to firm) 225 days ago; up in trip and needs a revival on this stable debut.
Five-time Flat winner (1m4f-1m6f, four times on Wolverhampton's Tapeta) who came back to some sort of form when dropped into a classified and second at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta; 66-1) eight days ago; more needed back in handicap company.
150,000gns foal price has proved far from a snip but he recorded his first piece of worthwhile form when 80-1 and third to Duchess at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta; Sisterandbrother fifth) ten days ago; that was just his second handicap and first go at this sort of trip so all is apparently not lost.
