William Hill Each Way Extra Handicap

Good second of 16 (AW) on his stable debut/reappearance last April and went on to land similar events in June and July; turf no issue and was second of 17 at Ascot (also 1m, soft; acts on good to firm) in September; career-high mark but still respected on this return.

Scored on his reappearance at Newbury (7f) last April; string of good efforts followed from August onwards and he posted a career best when fourth of 24 in Newbury's Spring Cup (1m, also good) on his return three weeks ago; stall 1 might not be ideal but otherwise holds strong claims.

Defied penalty in 3yo novice here (good) in 2024; back from a 145-day break and wind surgery when landing Class 2 at Newcastle (also 7f, AW) in December and beaten a neck at Abu Dhabi (1m, good) in March; career-high mark but still considered.

Novice and handicap (7f) winner on AW here, latterly in December when sporting first-time blinkers (retained); respectable ninth of 21 when 66-1 for the Lincoln in March and it was another solid effort when third in Class 2 handicap (1m, good) at Newmarket's Craven meeting; can't be ruled out.

Patchy form for David O'Meara last term but won in June (good to firm; first-time hood) and ran a corker when third of 21 in valuable Ascot handicap (good) in July; back in form when slightly unlucky second at Newcastle (also 7f, AW) in October and sold for 40,000gns later that month; hood (absent when disappointing on final start) missing again; tongue tied for stable debut and warrants a market check.
