JenningsBet Over 200 Shops Nationwide Handicap

Set to make much of the running in Listed company last time and beaten comfortably, he needs to settle to show his best; his form on a sounder surface is considerably better and there is ability here to exploit.

A sharp improver whose recent turf return exposed the limits of the current mark; back on the all-weather where he has been effective, but the handicapper may have caught up after his rapid progression.

Inconsistent and beaten well last time, this gelding faces a stiff task at this mark; first-time cheekpieces add a fresh element and the trainer is in excellent form, but a lot needs to go right.

Beaten well on his turf return, where the race set against him, he comes back to his favoured all-weather surface and has form here to suggest he can run well even off a career-high mark.

A former Group-level performer who has shown his best recent form only fleetingly — beaten without excuse at Thirsk last time — he needs to recapture his peak 2025 level to justify favouritism at this mark, and the trainer's current strike rate is a concern.
