ARTISAN DANCER was beaten only by an unexposed rival at York last week and makes plenty of appeal racing from an unchanged mark in this lower grade. Zealandia remains well treated on the pick of his form and also merits consideration after his recent third at Newcastle, with C&D winner Hardy Bloke also shortlisted having not really been seen to maximum effect in the Northumberland Vase.

    Verdict
    Had an exceptional 2024 when winning 5 times on the Flat and once over hurdles. Good second of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, good to soft) on penultimate outing but ran only moderately at Windsor a fortnight ago. Still respected.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful ex-French 15f winner in 2023 had edged down the weights and produced his best effort on these shores when third of 19 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f, 12/1) in June. Lacklustre display at Goodwood last time, though, so needs to bounce back.

    Won over C&D under this claimer on return before finishing mid-field in Northumberland Vase, not looking particularly well suited by the way that race developed. Each-way claims.

    Verdict
    40/1, respectable ninth of 19 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 61 days ago, well positioned. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Johnston. Visor back on. Worth betting check after eye-catching stable switch.

    Verdict
    Latest win at Bath in June. 7/2, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f, good) 36 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. 2 lb out of weights and probably needs a career-best to land this.

    Verdict
    Useful 3-y-o in 2022 for David Menuisier, 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Onesto in Prix Greffulhe at Saint-Cloud when last seen. Likely to need to this starting out for new yard after over 3-year absence. Gelded/makes handicap debut.
