Maximising
MAXIMISING looked progressive when bursting through from off a true pace to open his account at Lingfield 23 days ago and this lightly raced gelding can defy a 6 lb rise with further improvement on the cards. North View won with something to spare at Chelmsford 26 days ago and is feared most, whilst They All Know Me warrants respect with first-time cheekpieces applied. Irish raider Little Empire is another to note in a competitive handicap.

Progressive and lightly raced gelding who opened his account last time. Won 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (15/2) 23 days ago, bursting through from off a true pace to score readily. Up 6 lb but promises to improve further.

Hasn't won for 16 races but ran better than for a while when fourth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6/1) 14 days ago, slowly into stride before pulling his way to the front and keeping on.

Had struggled for much of 2025 but bounced back to winning form at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 11/1) 74 days ago, hanging left but staying on to lead final furlong in handicap. Not fully exposed at this trip but needs to prove he can build on that success.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat1/12Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat5/8Salisbury6fGoodFlat6/12Newmarket (rowley)6fGoodFlat6/9Haydock Park7f 37yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat5/9- 2(1)Purest TimeJ: Ryan KavanaghT: Ian Williams0230-50Age 67/18/115/2

Has shown fairly useful form this winter, runner-up at York in October and third at Wolverhampton in December. Eleventh of 14 in 6f handicap at this course (25/1) 21 days ago, better judged on previous form having been short of room when keeping on. Could be capable of better on rare start over 7f.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle6fStandardFlat11/14Southwell6f 16yStandardFlat5/13Kempton Park6fStandard / SlowFlat10/10Wolverhampton6f 20yStandardFlat3/9York6fGoodFlat2/19- 10(8)They All Know MeJ: David NolanT: Richard Fahey32233-2Age 415/215/28/1

Yet to win from six starts but ran best race when third in handicap at this C&D in December. Second of 8 in novice at Wolverhampton (4/1) 25 days ago, shaped well but didn't knuckle down as might be hoped. Will benefit from stronger gallop/first-time cheekpieces here and looks a player.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat2/8Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat3/10Newcastle1m 5yStandard / SlowFlat3/4Hamilton Park1m 68yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat2/5Redcar7fGood to Soft (Good in places)Flat2/9- 5(7)Little EmpireJ: Harry VigorsT: Anthony McCann, Ireland1332-23Age 615/213/27/1

Has been running consistently well at Dundalk recently and was third of 8 in handicap (2/1) 9 days ago, unable to defy a career-high mark on his return to handicap company. First-time cheekpieces could eke out some improvement.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDundalk7fStandardFlat3/8Dundalk7fStandardFlat2/7Dundalk7fStandardFlat2/13Dundalk6fStandardFlat3/13Dundalk6fStandardFlat3/9- 8(12)StenmarkJ: Jason HartT: Denis Quinn612563-Age 48/18/19/1

Won on stable debut after leaving James Ferguson last August, still in good form but hasn't added to that in 4 subsequent runs. Third of 10 in handicap at Kempton Park (7/1) 67 days ago, bounced back to best after a below par effort previously.

Lightly raced gelding who won a novice in 2024 and ran well when second at Haydock last August but eleventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (9/1) 138 days ago on AW debut, led but folded with something possibly amiss.

3-time winner on AW. Won for fourth time last season at Listowel 136 days ago (1m, 13/2), finding an extra gear when challenged to forge clear in a nine-runner handicap. Tongue strap removed for reappearance and has joined yard who can do well with new recruits.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosListowel1mHeavyFlat1/9Punchestown1m 30yGood to Yielding (Yielding in Places)Flat7/14Galway1m 98ySoftFlat6/12Killarney1m 30yGoodFlat2/6Galway1m 123yYielding to SoftFlat8/10- 1(2)Society ManJ: Tom MarquandT: Charlie Johnston80166-5Age 633/125/128/1

Won at Kempton in October from out of the blue but has run below form on all three subsequent starts, most recently fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (15/2) 31 days ago when trying markedly different tactics to no avail.

Underwhelming 2025 for George Boughey given his 3-y-o form but changed hands for £26,000 last October and made a successful stable debut in handicap at Chelmsford (11/2) 26 days ago, winning with something to spare under hands and heels. Up 4lb but can make a bold bid to follow up.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosChelmsford City7fStandardFlat1/11Lingfield Park1m 1yStandardFlat2/11Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat8/11Newbury1mGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat4/9Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat3/13
