Verdict
Versatile performer who was successful 3 times during 2025. Knocking on the door with back-to-back seconds at Kempton over the spring. Freshened up and has good claims to go one better with Oisin Murphy retained.

Verdict
Chased home fairly useful sort on handicap debut last summer. Has worked his way back to top form this season, digging deep to get off the mark at Catterick (7f) last time. Strikes as the type who'll act around this course, and he could make a bold bid to follow up off 2 lb higher.

Verdict
Doubled his tally in straightforward fashion at Newmarket (7f) in May. Went close back under less testing conditions on the July Course there last time. Only 1 lb higher in a less competitive event here.

Verdict
C&D winner who went close on seasonal reappearance at Kempton (7f) last April. Latest success came over same C&D in October. Back to form with second on all-weather at Lingfield when last seen in January. Returns on turf and isn't discounted given his record fresh.
