Expelliarmus (M)
[P]
Fair maiden on the Flat for Joseph O'Brien and bettered previous efforts for this yard when fifth of 10 back from a break at Sedgefield (16.8f, soft) where she was considerately handled. One to consider off this 3 lb lower mark.

She's Notjoeking (M)
Ended last season on a bit of a downer but has made the frame all 3 starts in handicaps this season, including when third of 14 at Ayr (19.5f, soft) last month. Should benefit from this drop back in trip and has to enter calculations.

Yapper Hill (G)
Winless following 5 runs in maiden points and hasn't troubled the judge in his qualifying runs in this sphere. Likely to be more competitive now going down the handicap route, but a stiffer test is probably needed.

Kazar Forez (G)
FAV
Fair maiden hurdler in France, going close in Auteuil handicap on final start there in June. However, has struggled both starts since joining this yard and now has a bit to prove.

Zamond (G)
Back on the scoreboard at Sedgefield in September and ran to similar level when creditable fourth of 11 at the same course (16.8f, good to firm) next time. Good run of form came to a grinding halt at Doncaster recently, though, and perhaps…

Ruler Legend (G)
Fairly useful on Flat in Ireland and opened hurdles account on handicap debut in this sphere at Huntingdon in March 2024. Hit-and-miss since, but ran well for a long way before running out of petrol in 24.3f Southwell handicap (held when f…

Joto (M)
[T]
Made the frame on second of 2 starts in bumpers and wasn't disgraced when third on handicap bow at Carlisle (17f, good to soft) in March. Conversely, she failed to threaten on return/debut for new yard at Sedgefield and others make more ap…

Jet Approach (G)
Little promise in various company and sizeable step forward will be needed if he's to play a leading role now handicapping.

Modest maiden on the Flat and no better over hurdles judged on what he's shown in 5 starts in this sphere.
