Down the field at Southwell three weeks ago, but has done well over C&D, winning back-to-back races during the winter, at the main expense of two of these rivals; beat Sacred Oath by one length in a maiden and gave Annaghmccanns 10lb and a 1 1/4l beating in a handicap.

Runner-up in a maiden over C&D in November; unplaced favourite over 1m here in December; addition of cheekpieces and return to this trip did the trick when she won a maiden 10 weeks ago; handicap debut.

Spotlight :
Won a 1m handicap at Southwell 13 months ago; has struggled at this venue during the winter and was out of the money at Southwell last time; has been competing over shorter trips for the past 15 months; worth noting he finished second in both C&D attempts in 2023.

Spotlight :
Sole win came over C&D in November 2023; best run for some time (well-backed) when back to same mark in similar contest in December when beaten a short head, finishing strongly; failed to reproduce that form five weeks ago; plenty to find with Trishuli River on that running.

Spotlight :
First three runs were over 1m here; performed with credit on debut in November, recovering from a terrible start; showed the benefit of that experience in winning a maiden 12 days later; awkward out of the stalls when unplaced on handicap debut; saw out the trip when second to Genoah over C&D three weeks ago.

Two 1m handicap wins at this venue since November; two moderate runs before returning to form with a third placing two weeks ago, a run that gives him an edge over Church Mountain.
