BLACKISTHENEWBLACK should have more to offer on the back of her Kempton success and can defy a 6 lb rise for Andrew Balding. Boilermaker shaped quite encouragingly on his Yarmouth handicap debut and can build on that and provide the main threat ahead of the William Haggas-trained Caraway.

Didn't show much in trio of novice events at up to 1m last year but took a step forward when fourth of 9 on 1¼m Yarmouth handicap debut (good to firm) 25 days ago.

Improved with cheekpieces added (retained) when making her second handicap start a winning one at Kempton (1½m) 16 days ago. Very much had the run of that race from the front but still appeals as one who can progress again.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park1m 3f 219yStandard / SlowFlat1/9Kempton Park1m 3f 219yStandard / SlowFlat6/11Chelmsford City1mStandardFlat6/9Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat3/7Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat6/10- 6(4)CarawayJ: Darragh KeenanT: William Haggas77-646Age 38/18/115/2

Yet to better modest form, including in a pair of 1½m Wolverhampton handicaps this spring, although she had an excuse (hampered) when sent off at 6/5 last time.

Three qualifying runs at up to 9.5f on all-weather at the end of 2025. Steps up in trip for handicap debut after 5 months off.
