Comment: Split a number of these rivals in a claimer when beaten 15l (third of six) 14 days ago; form could be levelling off and a while since he's been in the winners' enclosure (last win in 2023); he can be taken on.

Comment: Came good at the sixth time of asking two weeks ago in a maiden claimer (Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing), scoring by 5l; has displayed improved form on last two starts; win last time suggests he can handle the step up in class so could figure.

Comment: Out of the frame (beaten 8l in fifth) two weeks ago in a claimer; lightly raced (this just his fifth race); C&D has proven suitable before; notable jockey booking; eased in class with tag standing at $12.5k here; others more persuasive.

Comment: Seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice but winless with run of consecutive defeats standing at ten; respectable fourth in a maiden claimer four weeks ago, a race won by the reopposing Ramesses; now a lower claiming tag ($20k from $22.5k) so down in class; been struggling to get his head in front recently so not easy to fancy.

Demand Ransom

Jockey: Alexander Bendezu Trainer: Earl Hughes Age/Wt: 10/8-10 F: 967-34

Comment: Could be at the extent of his ability; held when fourth beaten 11l two weeks ago at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing in a claimer; claiming tag now upped from $4k; a once useful performer but not at that level anymore and he faces an uphill struggle.

Comment: Only once has he got into the winners' enclosure; first-time blinkers had no impact when tenth of 12 in October on his first start for this trainer in a stakes; returning from a layoff here; prospects as reverting to this trip sure to suit and jockey does well from inside draws here.

Comment: Seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; registered first success at the fifth time of asking at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing over 5½f (maiden special weight, sloppy track) 26 days ago, winning with plenty in hand; now upped in trip and not easy to fancy.

Comment: He meets the required standard ability wise and one-time useful performer; split a number of these rivals when not beaten too far two weeks ago in an optional claimer; higher claiming tag here so class rise to contend with; jockey booking is a positive; likely to be in contention as has proven capable of posting bigger numbers than these rivals and there was plenty to like about his latest performance.
