Spillers Future Champions Apprentice Handicap Stakes

Won last time out and two starts back, making it two wins in his last six starts, and quick to return after just 12 days with experience over today's trip. Carrying 144 lb from draw 1, the query is whether he can defy such a weight off a rating of 90.

That win last time out stands out from an otherwise modest sequence of fifths and a sixth, and he returns quickly after 11 days with experience over today's trip. From draw 3 carrying 136 lb, the question is whether that solitary win can be repeated against these.

Placed in each of his last five starts (three seconds, two thirds) but yet to win, he joins a trainer in good form (10/36, 28% recently) with experience over today's trip — a genuine threat on that consistency. Carrying 133 lb from draw 4, the query is turning those places into a win.

Third last time out and fourth in three of his last four starts, still without a win but with experience over today's trip. He rates the one to beat on our figures at 93, though the yard is currently out of form (1/23, 4%) carrying 133 lb from draw 5.

Fourth last time out, sandwiched by a runner-up two starts back and a winner three starts back — modest recent form at best. He does have experience over today's trip, but sits bottom of this field on our figures at 71, leaving plenty to find from draw 2 carrying 130 lb.
