Highbet Weekly Racing Rewards Club Classified Stakes

Two 5f turf wins in 2022 but nothing since, failing to follow up a fair effort at Brighton in April back there next time (both 6f); chance on form of September's C&D handicap second, if she can rediscover it.

5f handicap winner here 22 runs and over two years ago; operating generally below a winning level over his past half dozen or so starts, and among the worst in on this evening's terms.

Twice before has his official rating dropped to 50, and on both instances he capitalised with narrow wins in 6f Chelmsford classified events; didn't stay 7f at that venue latest but more in his favour again tonight.

Sole win came over Dundalk's Polytrack 6f, though about as effective on turf at her best; trail went cold from the end of last summer, and didn't lay down enough of a marker on this month's return to persuade.

Poor on turf last twice and return to this surface will be appreciated; C&D fifth in April was encouraging, but the Newcastle win which followed it suggest he needs at least a galloping 6f to give of his best these days.
