Comment: April foal; 11,000euros yearling; 40-1, promising debut when fourth of 12, beaten just over 2l, at Windsor (6f, good to firm; seventh has won since) 17 days ago; that bare form already sets a clear standard and she's related to some smart sorts on AW so likely there's more to come on this surface.

Comment: Scored on nursery debut at Southwell (1m) in November and followed up on reappearance at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in April; kept on for very respectable third when upped to 11.4f for recent turf debut and could still have untapped potential over middle-distance trips back on the AW; sports first-time cheekpieces.

Comment: Went very close when upped to 1m for recent handicap debut at Windsor (1m, good to firm) despite losing ground by hanging left and racing wide around the first two bends; moves up in trip again before 1lb nudge takes effect and will be fine back on Polytrack; needs to be taken very seriously.

Comment: Fine sprinting family; successful siblings have won on Polytrack and dirt; qualified for an ordinary mark for previous yard and he extricated himself neatly from an awkward position to lead near the line on yard debut at Pontefract (6f) in April; up just 2lb; can progress back at 7f.

Comment: Just over 1l behind City Captain over C&D when they made their handicap debuts in September but time has moved on since and he made it two wins from three starts in 2025 when giving weight to a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (7f) last month; up another 3lb; still going the right way.

5/1

Comment: Wide-margin winner of handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in November but it's not been easy in this grade since running well in a higher one at Kempton (7f) in January; needs new tongue-tie to help if he's to overcome in-form rivals.

9/1

Comment: All three starts at 6f, showing minor promise on debut and facing a tough task back from a break at Kempton in May; this extra furlong can suit on pedigree and has a more realistic chance now handicapping; blinkers on.

50/1

Comment: Caught the eye of the stewards in one qualifying run, over 7f on Southwell AW in February, but she hasn't achieved a lot since and was nearly 9l behind Adelaide Bay on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f; 40-1) last month; needs major turnaround.

Comment: Started career with a promising 6f turf run but she's been well adrift in three starts since, the last two for this yard; ordinary handicaps make more sense but she still has to prove her worth off this mark.

Jockey: Marco Ghiani Trainer: Clare Hobson Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 14287 OR: 56

Comment: Off the mark over 6f on this course in March but down the field in her latest two handicaps (first-time headgear on penultimate start); the return to this track offers hope but others more likely now back at 7f.

Ceira G

Jockey: Daniel Muscutt Trainer: Michael Keady Age/Wt: 3/9-2 F: 6-61270 OR: 53

Comment: Buckled down well when off the mark over C&D in February and was a shade unfortunate not to follow up at Wolverhampton (7f); never sighted next time and she had no reserves over 1m on turf since but there should be another race for her when things pan out.
