Al Waqidi
Two from two for Charlie Appleby, winning at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in 2020 and Newmarket (1m2f) in 2021; had gelding/wind operations and sold for 12,000gns since; now goes in tongue-tie and drops sharply in trip; the form pick but has to overcome a very long absence and it remains to be seen how much ability he retains; check the betting for further guidance.

Chalta
4yo filly by Bungle Inthejungle; dam 7.4f 2yo winner (RPR 85), half-sister to 1m1f 2yo Listed winner Wovoka, out of 11.6f/1m4f winner; sole newcomer in the field; market instructive.

Fazen
Needs to improve on her Wolverhampton efforts (8.5f/7f) and looks likely to be more interesting in handicaps shortly.

Groovy Baby
Consistent maiden who has finished second in six of her nine starts, mostly over 1m; beaten only a neck at Newcastle most recently; shapes as if this belated return to 7f is worth exploring and holds solid claims; could go one better, with doubts over her rivals.

Next Trick
Eight-race maiden (on turf) for Dermot Weld and has proved inconsistent since running well at Gowran Park (1m) last June; joined new connections for 70,000gns; not entirely solid but has possibilities if taking well to AW and first-time cheekpieces.
