Consolidation
Placed over C&D at the Glorious meeting (good to firm) and ended 2024 on a high with a ready win in 7f novice at Kempton, after which he was gelded; starts the new season open to further progress and looks a lively contender despite top weight.

Majestic Wave
Justified favouritism in 6f Navan maiden on final 2yo start and ran respectably in Lingfield handicap (6f, AW) on debut for new stable; however, he was disappointing at Newmarket 17 days ago and needs to bounce back.

Brighton Boy
Improved towards the end of 2024, winning nursery at York and running well when second in a big-field sales race at Newmarket (again 6f, good to soft; wore cheekpieces; subsequently gelded); his only blip came when down the field in C&D nursery at the Glorious meeting but there were possible excuses (caught wide); still unexposed and high on the list.

Huscal
A progressive 2yo campaign over 6f comprised a promising effort here and two wins in the north; raced freely and probably needed the outing when only sixth of eight in 7f handicap at Newbury three weeks ago; must come on for that run but it's certainly possible.

Power Fizz
Has not looked back since wind surgery, winning Newcastle maiden and Newmarket handicap, both over this trip; comfortably made all on second occasion (good ground); open to further improvement and a major player provided his wide draw does not turn out to be an inconvenience.

Philanthropist
Has progressed markedly with every run (all at 7f), winning maiden at Newcastle on final 2yo start and handicap at Southwell on reappearance; got on top late on last time and remains unexposed; should make a bold bid for a hat-trick.

Shameful
Ready winner on debut (6f, good) and bumped into a smart prospect at Kempton (7f, AW) next time, beating the remainder handsomely; subsequently gelded; still has plenty of untapped potential and does not look overburdened on handicap debut; might be the answer.

Sunshine State
Didn't improve significantly last year after making winning debut at Chelmsford (6f) but she held her form well enough in nurseries, including when making the frame over C&D at the Glorious meeting; not discounted if ready to roll after six months off but others have more pressing claims.

Diamont Katie
Chelmsford winner (6f) in January and showed she's effective on turf with creditable second of 11 in fillies' handicap at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) last Sunday; no obvious reason why she won't give her running again but this looks a stronger contest.
