Unable to justify strong market support at Newcastle latest; may strip fitter; contender.
8 (7)	Bashful Boy Bay J:Joanna Mason T:David Pipe	J:Joanna Mason T:David Pipe	131	p	32-347	71	88	80	32d	—	—	-5	9.3	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Only seventh of nine at Lingfield (2m; Barenboim runner-up) latest; plenty more required.
10 (2)	Arc Zoosve Bay J:Rob Hornby T:Neil King	J:Rob Hornby T:Neil King	122	p	1-4125	62	86	78	40d	—	—	+4	12.5	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Latest effort - only fifth, 9-4 jt-fav - was a step backwards; tough task in a Class 4.
6 (4)	Tarbat Ness Grey J:Gina Mangan T:John Berry	J:Gina Mangan T:John Berry	132	b	/21-11	72	88	68	17d	—	—	-1	8.2	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Bounded clear to score by 6l at Newcastle (2m, Class 5) latest; 7lb higher; shortlisted.
4 (1)	Appier Bay J:Kieran O'Neill T:Richard J Bandey	J:Kieran O'Neill T:Richard J Bandey	134	h	633-13	74	88	74	42d	—	—	0	8.2	2.50/1	10/1 9%

Pipped on post at Lingfield (2m Class 4) latest; slightly tougher off 1lb higher; 2m2f?
3 (3)	Vaguely Royal Brown J:Edward Greatrex T:Ian Williams	J:Edward Greatrex T:Ian Williams	134	p	000-76	74	80	66	13d	—	—	+2	7.5	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Poor for S. Hosie in 2025; likely still working back to form for this trainer; easing mark
1 (9)	Call My Bluff Bay J:Paul Mulrennan T:Dominic Ffrench Davis	J:Paul Mulrennan T:Dominic Ffrench Davis	142	p	23/94-	82	84	-	140d	—	—	+6	8.7	12.50/1	50/1 2%
Close third in the Chester Cup (2m2f, soft; 11-4 fav) in May 2023; lightly raced since.
7 (10)	Fleurman Grey J:Paddy Bradley T:Patrick Morris	J:Paddy Bradley T:Patrick Morris	132	p	460-30	72	88	36	13d	—	—	+4	6	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Disappointing for this yard; reportedly never travelling at Newcastle (2m) 13 days ago.
9 (8)	Royal Deeside Bay J:James Sullivan T:Patrick Morris	J:James Sullivan T:Patrick Morris	122	p	/6208-	62	82	-	—	—	—	+5	5.8	31.25/1	125/1 1%
Both wins over fences at Hexham (2m4f); likely to need this run with other targets ahead.
