Went close over a mile and three furlongs at Southwell in August from today's mark of 75, showing he can compete from this rating. His sixth there on 22 October was less compelling, though he finished only three and a half lengths behind the winner in this grade. The extra furlong has some support from his Southwell second over a mile and a half in September 2025, beaten two and a quarter lengths. He remains 5lb above his figure for July's Nottingham win, so that success alone does not make him look generously treated.

Finished eighth over a mile and three furlongs at Kempton on 14 October, beaten seven lengths, and now drops from Class 4 into Class 5. His February win at Lingfield came over today's mile and a half on Standard going, so these conditions suit on that evidence. A mark of 74 leaves him 3lb below his figure for that success, giving him some scope if he can recapture that form. His second here over a mile and six furlongs in March also shows he can be competitive at this track in stronger company.

Finished sixth at Southwell on 10 October, beaten eight lengths over a mile and a half, so his recent form needs some improvement. His Epsom win on 30 July came over this trip in Class 5 company, and today's mark of 71 is 1lb below his figure there. Three course wins give him an established liking for Wolverhampton, which adds substance to his claims back here. He also finished second over this course and distance in December 2024, albeit in stronger Class 2 company and from a much higher rating.

His July third at Leicester over a mile and two furlongs gives him a respectable Class 3 effort to bring into this lower grade. He was less effective at Salisbury on 1 October, finishing seventh on soft ground, six lengths behind the winner over the same distance. A 2lb easing to 75 and the drop from Class 4 into Class 5 give him some help as he seeks a better performance. Today's mile and a half adds two furlongs to the Salisbury trip; his August fifth at Kempton came over a mile and three furlongs.

Won over a mile and six furlongs on good to firm at Lingfield in August in Class 4 company, and is now rated just 1lb higher. Her latest sixth at Nottingham came in the same grade over that distance on good to soft, beaten five lengths, and she drops in class here. The return to a mile and a half cuts two furlongs from that assignment, with her July second at Epsom offering encouragement for this distance. She finished two and a quarter lengths behind the winner at Epsom, a respectable effort in Class 4 company on good ground.

Won over this course and distance in March in the same grade on Standard going, and returns to the Flat from a mark 1lb lower. His September hurdle success at Sedgefield provides more recent encouragement, although that came over two miles and a furlong on good ground. He followed it with third at Stratford on 17 October, beaten six and a half lengths, keeping his recent hurdle form respectable. His latest Flat effort was less persuasive, finishing fifth over a mile and three and a half furlongs on heavy ground at Haydock in September.

Won over a mile and a furlong at Newmarket on 19 September in Class 4 company, giving him a positive result to build on. He drops a grade here, although a mark of 67 asks him to follow up from a figure 4lb higher than at Newmarket. The move to a mile and a half adds three furlongs to his latest trip, making stamina an important part of today's task. His close third over a mile and two furlongs at Bath in May offers some encouragement, though this asks him to stretch further again.

Finished fifth here over a mile and a furlong and a half on 5 October, beaten six and a quarter lengths, so needs more. His April second at Nottingham was more encouraging, finishing a length behind the winner over a mile and half a furlong from a rating of 73. He is now rated 67, which offers some encouragement if he can reproduce that spring effort after several less persuasive performances since. The step up to a mile and a half adds two and a half furlongs to his latest trip and presents a greater stamina test.

Finished fifth over a mile and three furlongs at Kempton on 5 October, beaten four and a half lengths, a better effort than his May Salisbury run. His third over a mile at Haydock in September 2025 showed promise in Class 3 company, although that was over a considerably shorter trip. He now tackles an extra furlong from a 1lb lower mark, so needs to build on the Kempton effort over a mile and a half. Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy have combined for four winners from 16 runners in the past fortnight, providing encouragement from the partnership's recent results.

Finished sixth over seven furlongs here on 29 September, beaten ten and a quarter lengths, leaving him with more to find on recent Flat form. His August fifth at Kempton over a mile and three furlongs was also well beaten, with 33 lengths separating him from the winner. Today's mile and a half is five furlongs farther than his latest assignment, while the move into Class 5 gives him an easier grade. Luke Morris brings extensive course experience, with 534 Wolverhampton winners, offering an experienced pair of hands for this substantially different test.
