Catherine & Charlotte Roche Handicap

Three wins from his last five starts, most recently landing a handicap here by a neck off a 4lb lower mark, outstaying the field; consistent over 10-12f on this ground and the trainer is in form — the mark has tightened but he is the one to beat.

Showed an improved effort over course and distance last time, going down by just half a length off this same official mark at extended 12f; this trip clearly agrees with her and conditions suit, though she is yet to win in recent starts.

Returned to winning form at Ayr 11 days ago, landing a classified race on the Flat by four lengths, which shows she is back in good order; effective at this trip and handles the going, though handicap company is a tougher ask — the mark looks fair.

A disappointing display at Hamilton 13 days ago, beaten 10 lengths, adding to a run of below-par efforts; her trainer does have a strong record at this track, but she has yet to produce any consistent showings and remains hard to recommend.

Placed second at Hamilton just five days ago, going within seven lengths of the winner at this trip and running to his current level; first-time visor adds interest and the mark looks fair, though he is yet to win in recent starts.
