Rajapour
RAJAPOUR remains below his last winning mark and his last 2 performances indicate that he's ready to take advantage, particularly granted a well-run race over 1m. Hale End beat the selection at Wetherby so he needs considering, along with the consistent Mission Command.

Heavily backed with reappearance under her belt and that proved to be well placed when landing 13-runner C&D handicap last month. Excuses for subsequent Wetherby defeat so she needs treating as though still in form.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosWetherby1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/12Thirsk7f 218yGoodFlat1/13Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat7/11Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat10/11Doncaster1m 2f 43ySoft (Heavy in places)Flat4/13- 10(8)Military LeaderJ: Sam JamesE: Phillip Makin43242-1Âge 54/14/17/2

Had been knocking on the door prior to gaining a deserved first success at Southwell last week.

Ended a losing run at Southwell (1m) in December and suited by the sound gallop when making a winning return to turf at Wetherby 3 weeks ago, proving a head too strong for Rajapour. 2 lb rise won't prevent another bold bid.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosWetherby1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/12Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat4/11Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat4/11Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat1/10Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat3/7- 6(11)RajapourJ: Mark WinnE: David O'Meara9557824Âge 613/213/27/1

Returned to form in a change of headgear when just failing to Hale End at Windsor, looking unlucky not to win (denied a run over 1f out). Didn't get the same pace to aim at when fourth of 7 at Ayr since but he clearly has it in him to win from this mark. Tongue tie added.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosAyr1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat4/7Wetherby1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/12Pontefract1m 6yGood to SoftFlat8/9Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat7/11Newcastle1m 5yStandard / SlowFlat5/8- 2(1)Rising ForceJ: Callum RodriguezE: John Butler1235101Âge 59/19/18/1

Already enjoyed a very productive 2026, just about better than ever when winning 9-runner handicap over this C&D 14 days ago. Value for a bit extra, too given he was held up in a modestly-run contest.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosThirsk7f 218yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/9Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat13/13Doncaster1mGood to SoftFlat1/22Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat5/12Lingfield Park1m 2fStandardFlat3/7- 5(7)Mission CommandJ: Paul MulrennanE: Jennie Candlish3453333Âge 49/19/18/1

Free-going type who was ridden more prominently than can be the case and he finally cashed in on a handy mark at Ayr 11 days ago, 2 lb rise less of a concern than overall profile.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosAyr1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/7Hamilton Park1m 68yGoodFlat4/8Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat5/9Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat10/10Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat5/10- 9(10)Ravishing BeautyJ: P.

Very effective on soft ground, winning at Ayr and this venue across a largely positive 2025 campaign. Showed the benefit of a recent run when sixth of 22 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) in March but folded as though possibly amiss at Newcastle latest.DateCourseDistConditionsTypePosNewcastle7f 14yStandardFlat8/8Doncaster1mGood to SoftFlat6/22Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat8/8Doncaster7f 6yHeavyFlat11/15Ayr7f 50yHeavyFlat2/8- 4(6)Pink AzaleaJ: Jason HartE: John & Sean Quinn12108-9Âge 433/125/128/1
