Third over six furlongs at Yarmouth on 12 October, beaten a length and a quarter, he showed he could be competitive in this grade from today's mark. His rating of 70 is 7lb above the figure from which he won over the same trip at Kempton on 23 September. A second over this course and distance on 29 September, beaten a length, adds encouragement for the return to standard going. Billy Loughnane arrives with ten winners in the past fortnight, another positive for a horse holding his form well.

Won over five and a half furlongs at Brighton on 6 October in this grade, arriving here on the back of a positive performance. A 3lb rise to 70 asks more of him, while today's six furlongs adds half a furlong to that winning trip. His third at Southwell in September and five-furlong success there in May show that standard going suits him well enough. A narrow second over six furlongs at Newcastle in March also offers encouragement that the extra distance is within his compass.

Won over this course and distance on standard going on 21 July, giving him an obvious claim with those conditions repeated today. He moves up from Class 6 to Class 5 from a mark of 69, which is 6lb above his July winning figure. A seven-furlong win here in November 2025 shows he can be effective in this grade, so the class rise alone is manageable. His July success followed more than four months off, offering encouragement as he returns from another absence of 94 days.

Finished eighth over this course and distance on 2 October, beaten eight and a quarter lengths, and needs to show more than on that occasion. He is now 2lb lower than for that run, giving him some relief in the weights as he seeks a revival. His latest win came over five and a half furlongs on firm ground at Bath in May, from a mark 1lb higher than today's. A six-furlong success at Kempton on standard to slow in March provides encouragement for the trip, despite his disappointing autumn all-weather form.

His second over six furlongs on standard going at Southwell on 17 September, beaten a length and a quarter, puts him in the picture. He failed to reproduce that effort at the same track on 10 October, finishing eighth and ten lengths behind the winner. Today's mark of 65 is 1lb below his latest winning figure, gained over six furlongs at Redcar in May 2025. That Redcar success came in Class 5, so returning to this grade need not be beyond him if he can recapture his September form.

Third over seven furlongs at Yarmouth on 28 July, beaten two and a half lengths, he returns from 87 days off with a respectable effort to build on. Today's six furlongs is a furlong shorter, although his third over this course and distance in November 2025 offers encouragement for the switch. A mark of 62 leaves him 3lb below the figure from which he won at Lingfield in January. Michael Appleby has sent out six winners from 22 runners in the past fortnight, adding a positive from the stable.

Six course wins underline his liking for Wolverhampton, including a success over this trip on Standard going on 31 July 2025. His mark of 61 is 21lb below the rating for his latest win, over six furlongs at Lingfield in December 2025. He needs to put a modest September effort behind him, having finished twelfth at Ripon, beaten seven lengths, after a better third at Beverley in August. Michael Appleby's six winners from 22 runners during the past fortnight add encouragement as this veteran returns to familiar surroundings.

A close third over six furlongs in Class 5 at Pontefract on 17 September gives him a fair chance at this level. He finished sixth at Ripon on 26 September, but was beaten only two and three quarters of a length, so that was no heavy reverse. His June win here came over seven furlongs on standard going, and today's mark of 60 is just 2lb higher. The return to this track is a positive, although he still has to show he can be as effective here over six furlongs.
