Fireworks Festival 7th November 2026 - Book Now Handicap Stakes

Metallo shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up last time out, and his experience over today's trip and conditions gives him strong claims from a field-topping rating of 88; the concern is that he remains winless in his last six starts.

Breakdancer shaped with promise when third two starts back and has run over today's trip, while our rating of 85 puts him right in the mix as a leading danger among these fourteen; the risk is that he remains winless in his last six starts.

Wesam won four starts back and was third three starts back, but two unplaced efforts since then, combined with 255 days off the track, leave fitness a real concern; he has run over today's trip and carries 141 lb from stall five.

Spy Kingdom won four starts back but has been out of the frame in his last two, and a 220-day absence is a significant unknown; he has run over today's trip and going, and his rating of 84 offers some encouragement, though the long layoff is the key question.

Home Hero has winning form in his recent starts, with a victory three starts back, though a fourth last time out and a seventh two starts back show inconsistency; experience over today's trip and going helps, but 135 lb from stall one is the key variable.
