Found the 7f and undulations at Chepstow happening too quick last time but otherwise has run very well in similar contests this season and can be competitive again here.

Is better than recent runs when down the field at Windsor and Salisbury. Dropped another 3lbs here helps and we are putting the cheekpieces on today to help him settle better. Also hoping the move back to the AW will suit - each-way chance with Tom Queally, who has won on the horse, back riding.

College Oak is out of a winning sister to the three-time Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, Best Mate, and the Grade 1 winning hurdler Cornish Rebel, as well as the multiple winner Inca Trail.  College Oak won a bumper and a novice hurdle before winning a competitive handicap at Ascot.  However, he didn't appreciate going chasing…

12 race maiden, but has fair form around this level. Second here the last day to Silver Bubble and taking on that horse again here. We are 3lbs better off this time though at the weight for the 1 1/4 lengths. We also ran second to Toybox at the track the time before and much…

Good winner here last time out - first win on the turf too. Did it well that day by 1 1/2 lengths so the 5lbs ride here should be fine. Dropping back from 1m2f to 1m too will be okay as well and Jack rides again to claim 3lbs. Should have a leading e/w chance…

Six O'Hearts was down the field on debut at Wolverhampton. He is still a work in progress although a bit better is expected here. We will be happy is he makes a step in the right direction.

Night Eagle needed the run at Sandown after 7 months off. Going back to Lingfield where he is a CD winner should help. Rhys claims his valuable 3lbs so much better expected dropping into a Class 6. Each-way chance, although Seal Of Solomon and Sun Festival might be hard to beat.

Recall The Show has been a bit in and out in recent runs - but not far away the last day at Pontefract earlier this week and down a grade from that run too. A good draw in four helps and he comes here with an e/w chance. That said he is taking on two…

Sea Of Charms, whose only run so far this year was her fourth on the AW at Lingfield, has a consistent profile. She is down 1lb from last time and has a 5lb claimer booked. We feel the drop back to 1m2f will help as will running  in a fillies' handicap. She should have every…

The Whipmaster is in great order having won his last three. He stayed on well again last time over 1m2f at Lingfield to complete the three-timer. Up 4lbs here and up in grade again into a Class 2, he carries only 8st 6lbs in this better race and the longer trip will suit. Course fine…

Hey Frankie has done nothing wrong in two bumpers and two runs in novices. Going back up from 2m1f to 2m4f is a big plus for her. The ground will be fine and we are hoping for a big run in an open mares' handicap. She's going there with every chance today.

Optimistic Bias has had no help from the handicapper who refuses to give him any leeway despite his being 13 years of age.  If he takes to Cartmel he has place claims in a race where there are a few dark horses.

11 year-old now but has been running well without winning at the moment - third and second the last twice over hurdles. Same mark again gives him a leading chance on chase debut but the winner of the last race (when 2nd) didn't really frank that form last time. That said, our horse is well…

Yet to win from 8 runs, but took a step forward the last day at Goodwood with a close third. Has run well here before too and the quicker ground than last time is okay. Same mark as last time too, so should have every chance. Hector Crouch rides again.

Should have a leading chance if able to build on last run at Chelmsford when second over this trip. Up just a pound for that here and we've a nice draw in 2. Tom rides again too and we are also putting on the blinkers for the first time to help eke out a bit…

Needed the run back the last day at Ffos Las, when down the field over 2m4. We are stepping her up to 3m this time as feel worth another go - last time he ran over this trip was in 2020. 2lbs lower this time too and won't mind the ground. Probably just a small…

In good form but will need to back it up today after a few quick runs. Personal best is required in a big field. Good draw so every chance and I wouldn't be backing against him!
