Caroline Taylor-Beswick Appreciation Handicap (Professional And Amateur Female Jockeys)

Modest form in bumpers/over hurdles but has shown a fair level of ability since switched to the Flat. His opening handicap mark does demand improvement, though.

Creditable third at Hamilton (11f) in June and better than he could show (denied a run) when sixth at Beverley since.

Five-time course winner over shorter but has won over 11f at Hamilton. 9/2, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (1m, good) 30 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Significantly back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. On a good mark and his stable has won this race 3 times since 2014.

One win from 21 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Last of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good, 125/1) 11 days ago. Others are preferred.

Stepped up on reappearance run when landing Ripon Ladies Derby for second consecutive season in June. Good second at Epsom since, both under regular rider Emily Roberts. Ought to be competitive again.

Second at Southwell (2m) in April but shaped as if amiss back there since and been off 98 days. Drops significantly in trip with a hood also refitted.

Out of sorts for Iain Jardine at the end of 2023 and off 9 months ahead of reappearance for former yard. The betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations.

C&D winner in May and went in again at Hamilton in June. Remained in form since and should give another good account.
