Captain Cess
CAPTAIN CESS has shown enough on both starts this year to think he has a race like this in him. Night Emperor has been shaping up quite well over 6f and is a likely danger if seeing out this extra 1f. Coconut Bay is next on the list.

Went close on 6f Chepstow reappearance (final start for Adrian Wintle). Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) 31 days ago, not clear run. Back up in trip.

It's now fourteen runs since last win in 2025 but she posted a creditable third of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, firm, 7/2) 8 days ago.

Has shown he retains plenty of ability since returning from a lengthy absence for new yard, caught away from where the main action took place when fourth of 18 over 6f here last time.

Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2025 but was quickly back on track when 2 lengths sixth of 8 in handicap (9/2) at Catterick (7f, firm) 24 days ago.

Sioux Nation mare who was off for more than 2 years after her debut. Hinted at ability on the second of 2 comeback outings and stands a more realistic chance now moving into handicaps.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosThirsk7f 218yGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat5/8Carlisle7f 173ySoftFlat6/6Redcar5f 217ySoft (Good To Soft In Places)Flat5/7- 6(5)ElashgarJ: William PyleT: Kevin & Lauren Frost-831206Age 333/125/128/1

Showed improved form to score on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6f) in February. Backed that up when second there (6f again) in March but below par switched to turf last twice.
