JOCKEY/TRAINER FORM
Runners Spotlight
Posted a resurgent effort, albeit in a race that panned out favourably, at Lingfield (1m4f) last weekend; only 1-18 on AW but gained the win off 6lb higher in sole attempt over this C&D; possibilities.
Record of 2-3 at Wolverhampton but 0-11 elsewhere and form has dipped since scoring in first-time cheekpieces in October; removal of that headgear needs to have a positive effect in two ways.
Scored on AW in autumn 2024 and turf in spring 2025; back in form having been placed at Wolverhampton (9.5f) the last twice, collared on the line by a subsequent winner on latest occasion; solid chance.
Made it 12th-time lucky with a convincing success here (1m2f) last month and only went down narrowly at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) 12 days later; clearly in top form, but up another 2lb and the return to this trip is a concern.
Completed a turf hat-trick last May/June; has made the frame in six of his nine AW attempts, including over C&D when last seen three months ago (winner has franked the form); in the mix.
