Verdict

Lots with chances but STIPULATION rates just the pick of the weights and with Billy Loughnane back up he is taken to gain a first win of 2026. Deep Sleep is progressing gradually for James Owen and is next on the list, while Tiger Beetle and Snaafy also need factoring in.

7	Failed to win for Tim Easterby but gradually going the right way for shrewd yard and posted a good third of 10 in handicap over C&D 10 days ago.
