BANANA showed a good attitude when doubling her tally at Chepstow last week and she is taken to follow up as she returns to this lower level. A pair having their first try in this grade could be the main dangers, with Colorada Dancer feared most dropped in trip, ahead of Canaria Queen.

    Made it 2 wins this season when landing 5-runner handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm, 9/2) a week ago, rallying to lead again close home. Major player as she drops back down in grade.

    Nineteen runs since last win in 2024. Run best excused when twelfth of 18 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good, 12/1) 16 days ago, racing on unfavoured far side. Interesting making first start at this level.

    Modest gelding. Fifth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm, 10/1) 30 days ago, never nearer having been very slowly away. Capable of getting involved but could do with brushing up his starts.

    Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. However, in first-time visor he ran well when second of 9 in minor event (16/1) at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Task is now to build on latest effort.

    Verdict
    Twelve runs since sole success in 2023. After 3 months off, raced freely in first-time visor when fourth of 6 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good to firm, 9/2) 17 days ago. Merits consideration as he drops in grade/trip.
