Down the field at York and Windsor on his last two starts but he's won on his last four visits to Ripon (1m2f, good/good to soft), including twice this year; it's surprising he's only ever had one crack at 1m4f, given how well he kept on over that trip in 2024; firmly in calculations back here.
8yo who has been beaten 23 times since his last win in September 2024 and failed to threaten at the Curragh three weeks ago; however, prior to that this Irish raider was second at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) behind a subsequent Royal Ascot winner, and he's in the picture on that form.
Ten-time AW winner who is 5lb lower than when winning at Southwell (1m4f, AW) last November; however, this is his first run since January and he was well beaten at Ascot in May 2024 on his last encounter with turf; 0-5 on grass and others have less to prove.
Disappointing at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago but prior to that he was 2-2 since being gelded, with convincing wins at Southwell (1m3f, AW) and Hamilton (1m3f, good); could bounce back.
He's edged down the weights for his new yard this season and has been placed off this mark on his last two starts, finishing third at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) then beaten just a neck at Hamilton (1m5f, good); back up in grade this afternoon but he might not be far away.
5yo mare whose form has gone to a new level this season, with wins at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) and Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) sandwiching a runner-up finish at Lingfield (1m2f, good to firm); she may be the type who only just does enough and therefore she could have more still left in the tank.
He's won just one of his last 23 starts and has failed to fire on his last two outings; however, he had a tough assignment in the John Smith's Cup at York last Saturday and he's dropped to a handy mark; runner-up to the 4-7 favourite in this race last year and he's not ruled out.
3yo who has improved with each of his four starts and finished a close second of five on handicap debut at Thirsk (1m4f, good to firm) this month; the winner has followed up and this progressive colt could play a leading role following a 1lb rise.
