As good as ever on Tapeta lately, albeit turned over as favourite on last two outings; returns to turf 3lb above his highest winning mark and at the age of seven (no surprise to see Rhys Elliott up to take off 5lb) and he will need to get things bang on.

Turf wins as a 2yo came on soft/heavy ground and the midweek rain will have helped, although he'd have preferred more; highly consistent but a 2lb rise for his recent AW win puts him on a career-high mark into a more competitive handicap, down from 6f.

Regressive maiden who returns from seven months off having undergone a second round of wind surgery; done a lot of her racing over 7f and she'd be a surprise winner for a yard that has more obvious claims with Jonny Concrete.

Chamber verdict Balanced lens

Montezuma

Speculative

Montezuma owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (53) and market confidence (86). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Something clicked over the winter and she has made good progress since springing a 40-1 shock at Newcastle in November (1m4f), adding further wins at Wolverhampton and over C&D; ran as well as she ever has when a close second at Hamilton on Sunday (1m3f); that was a Class 4 and she should be hard to beat back down to Class 6 company.

1m3f Flat and 2m hurdle wins last autumn on first two runs for Gavin Cromwell but pulled up one month ago on handicap hurdle debut when wearing tongue-strap and cheekpieces for the first time; the latter are not retained on this first run for new yard (same owner); could have more to offer on Flat.
