Five-time winner over 6f-1m2f here, the latest from 3lb lower over 7f in January; capable of playing a part if this sets up for his closing style.

Versatile 6yo who had form over all sorts of trips last year and just did enough to hold off Ardaddy over C&D one week ago; recent 3lb rise is probably enough to leave him a shade vulnerable, though.

4-27 at Hamilton, which has dominated his itinerary but he also has two wins elsewhere; made a respectable return to Flat over C&D two weeks ago under Lexie Clarkson and could build on that to get seriously involved.

Four-time course winner, most recently over today's trip (good to soft) in September; ended 2025 with two below-par hurdle runs, though, and would appeal more on ground slower than good.

Burst back to life with a very easy classified win at Ayr (1m2f, good; cheekpieces back on for only a second time) but wouldn't want to be at all flattered by that with the handicapper hitting him with 9lb.

His two wins last August/September (including here) came over 1m2f but he travelled well when fourth over 1m1f here (good to firm) on his recent return to action, when short of room close home, and he may have versatility in terms of trip; interesting contender.

Ended a losing run going back to September 2022 when winning here (1m7f, soft) last Tuesday; her profile suggests her credentials for following up are questionable, but she had 3l to spare last week and a 4lb penalty may not stop her if she can reproduce that form.

4yo who made it 0-7 when flopping at Hamilton (1m4f, soft) latest; however, prior to that she was second at the same course (1m3f, good to soft) in first-time cheekpieces, and perhaps the switch to blinkers will be a positive.
