All Moonshine (F)
FAV
Confirmed debut promise to win a 7f novice at Southwell (9/2) 15 days ago, asserting in good style despite showing greenness. Penalised but open to further improvement with just two runs under her belt.

[T]
Lightly-raced gelding who showed promise with two second-place finishes, including when returning from a breathing operation at Southwell. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5/2) 23 days ago, not settling and weakening in the final fu…

Hammal (G)
Modest form when sixth of 10 in a novice at this C&D (7/1) in December 2024, slowly away but made late headway. Subsequently sold from Stuart Williams £1,400 in January 2025 and missed that season. Best watched.

Oceans Five (G)
Proved a different proposition from sole 2-y-o start (off 14 months) when third of 10 at Chelmsford City (4/1), no extra only late on. Has plenty about him physically and can do better again.

Splinterwood (G)
Showed only greenness on racecourse debut when seventh of 8 in novice stakes at Southwell (20/1) 15 days ago. Needs to show significant improvement from that initial effort.

Thequietman (G)
[H]
Lightly-raced gelding placed in three of five starts, ran on for third of 8 behind All Moonshine in novice stakes at Southwell (4/1) on yard debut 15 days ago in first-time hood. 7 lb better off with the winner here.

They All Know Me (G)
Lightly-raced gelding placed in all five starts including third of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10/1) 23 days ago, finishing well but left with too much to do. Good chance back in a novice.
