Hamilton

Tomorrow, FlatClass 66f
Verdict

This looks wide open and with that in mind a chance is taken on IMPRESSOR. Phil Makin's 9-y-o wasn't at his best in a first-time visor here 12 days ago but the refitting of cheekpieces/return to soft ground are both likely catalysts for a better showing and he could well be ready to capitalise on a much-reduced mark. Big Apple Jack is a danger following his recent Carlisle second, with last year's runner-up Lumenbourg and course specialist Iris Dancer others fancied to feature.

    Verdict
    Stepped forward on the back of a breathing operation last autumn, winning twice over 5f in October. Career-high mark/return to 7f were enough to prevent further success when eighth at Doncaster on final outing in November and undergone another breathing operation ahead of this return to action.

    Verdict
    Resumed winning ways at Carlisle (6f, soft) in June prior to posting a good fourth at Doncaster later that month. Not at best when fifth of 6 in handicap at latter-named venue in July but quickly returns to sprinting and he was second in this contest 12 months ago. Cheekpieces replace usual visor.

    Verdict
    Prolific winner over C&D, scoring 3 times this season (latest was her 12th overall). Has struggled in class 4 handicaps more recently but she returns to this lower level now 1 lb below her last winning mark and she can't be ruled out.

    Verdict
    Ended a losing run stretching back to his debut at Southwell (7f) in March. However, not really threatened to add to that subsequently, running below best when fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (6f) 4 weeks ago.

    Verdict
    Enduring a lengthy barren spell but has come down the weights this year and he took a definite step back in the right direction when second at Carlisle (6f) 3 weeks ago, outpaced 2f out before making late headway. Drops back into class 6 company now and not dismissed out of hand.

    Verdict
    Not won since his 2-y-o days and continues to fall in the weights this season without showing any signs of taking advantage. Visor quickly goes back on in place of cheekpieces but others are more convincing.

    Verdict
    Lightly raced 4-y-o who is yet to fire in 5 starts upon joining Ruth Carr, back down in trip following a breathing operation when fifth at Redcar (6f) 11 days ago. Pick of his form in Ireland came with plenty of give underfoot, though, so interesting if supported from career-low mark.

    Verdict
    C&D winner who regained winning thread over 5f here this time last year. Has endured something of a hit-and-miss 2026 but lurks on a dangerous mark as a result and the return to soft ground very much a plus in refitted cheekpieces. Interesting.

    Verdict
    Mayson gelding who is still in search of a first success but he again ran well back on a softer surface when second at Carlisle (7f) 2 weeks ago, nearest finish. Blinkers go on for the first time and respected back at a stiff 6f for yard who have been amongst the winners.

    Verdict
    Bounced back to form in refitted blinkers with success in 13-runner handicap at Ayr (6f) 2 starts back. Looked unlucky not to finish closer when finishing close-up seventh at Newcastle (6f) 2 weeks ago and she remains well treated if able to hold her form.

    Verdict
    Won 3 times on all-weather early in 2026. Not so good back on turf since, never better than midfield over 5f here on penultimate start and not picking up once in the clear when filling same spot over 6f at Newcastle 2 weeks ago.

    Verdict
    Better than ever when notching a second C&D success of the season in July and back to that sort of form of late, shaping as if a return to this trip would suit when staying on fifth over 5f back here 12 days ago. Each-way claims having eased back down to last winning mark.

    Verdict
    Maiden who ran respectably without doing enough to suggest she's ready to break her duck just yet when staying on third over 5f here 3 weeks ago. Return to this longer trip won't inconvenience her but a little more needed in any case.
