J: Rowan Scott

T: Charlie Johnston

Inconsistent and without a win since September 2024; however, he was denied a clear run when second of six at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) recently and can be in the shake-up if backing that up; versatile ground-wise.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: Charlie Johnston

Three turf wins at up to about 1m2f (good to soft and soft), most recent in 2024; promising reappearance on AW in February but he hasn't done as well since and there was little in the locker at Hamilton recently.

T: Michael Dods

Triple AW winner who failed to get home, having raced too freely, over 1m2f in that sphere last time (still ran respectably); 0-12 on turf but was a good second off 6lb higher in last attempt; not ruled out.

Quite late in the day to be going beyond an extended 1m for the first time; often makes the running and can race freely, so will need to settle early from a wide stall back from ten weeks off; not in much form when last seen either way.

J: Sean Kirrane

T: Tim Easterby

Tough veteran who is having his 127th race; two wins already this season, latest at Musselburgh last week (1m1f, good) when he had to pull out all the stops; could go well again from a good draw, particularly if the going eases.

J: Sean Kirrane

Veteran who exploited a reduced mark when winning from the front at Ripon (1m2f, good) last month; held under 4lb penalty soon afterwards, though, and effectively another 1lb higher here; younger rivals appeal more.

Form at Carlisle features a success in 2024 and close second last June, both off much higher marks; a possible danger provided he takes a sufficient step forward from Beverley reappearance duck egg.

7f AW winner in September; no significant impact in two handicaps but stepping up in trip could help this well-related 3yo; inexperienced apprentice booked.

Half-brother to two stablemates who have a combined record of 8-9 on AW; duly gained his maiden success in this sphere; rather disappointing on final 2yo start (handicap debut; gelded since) but may still have more to offer; not written off.
