5lb higher mark than for last month's soft-ground C&D victory over Sunset Hill and Johnson's Blue still reads favourably next to his 2022-23 peak RPRs; Flat scorer at Hamilton since (1m5f, good), and plainly on fine terms with himself again; player.

J: Rowan Scott

Won over C&D (good to soft) last September and he's just 1lb higher today; won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, soft) last month on his second start for this yard and there's lots to like about his claims.

High Dancer

11st 7lb

J: Danny McMenamin

T: Nicky Richards

Didn't see out 3m when well-held third at Doncaster (good to soft) in March but ran well for a long way and is now back on same mark as for his clear second behind a useful rival there (2m3f, soft) in November; also suited by good ground; could be a tough nut to crack if aided by new cheekpieces.

Haarar

J: Tom Eaves

Generally productive over hurdles but last few efforts leave a doubt over whether he'll be in top form returned to the Flat for first time since winning at Redcar (1m6f, soft) in November 2024.

Has won five of his 17 races over hurdles, including at Haydock (2m3f, good to soft) and off 7lb lower at Carlisle (2m1f, good to soft) this season; not at his best on last two runs but could bounce back.

Dual C&D scorer in first half of 2025; lightly raced since but she took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Hexham (2m) three weeks ago; possibilities off a slipping mark.

Won a Cartmel seller and two handicap hurdles (one over this C&D) last summer; may have needed the run when pulled up at Perth last week; bit to prove.

A head away from securing a fifth course win here last Saturday (2m); can number two C&D successes among that haul and respected again, for all that his record in the past three editions of this race reads 655.

Four Hexham wins (2m-2m4f) and is rated 15lb lower than when last successful at Kelso (2m, Class 2) in May 2024; returned from a 204-day absence with a decent effort, runner-up to Banderas, over 2m4f here latest; respected, even if some of the others have more potential.
