Sir Paul Ramsey

9st 5lb

J: Tom Marquand

T: Charlie Johnston

Two turf wins at around 1m on good ground last summer, the second of them coming off a 1lb higher mark; not far off his best form when fourth at Lingfield early this month but he has since finished a remote 11th at Musselburgh; not a solid option.

J: Pat Cosgrave

Has won two of his last three races, both at around 1m on good ground, the latest at Salisbury last month; tries 1m2f for the first time, is on a career-high mark and has a poor draw, so a bit to prove.

Won three times last year; should be sharper following his seasonal return when seventh of 12 at Wetherby (1m, good to firm) last month but is 6lb higher than his last winning mark and may need to come down a few pounds.

Ran five times for the Gosdens, winning a maiden at Yarmouth (7f, good) last July; no threat when sixth of ten at 9-1 on last month's stable and seasonal debut at Epsom (8.5f, good) but this well-bred 4yo may have needed that run and is just the type his new trainer does very well with; a possible.

6f course win as a 2yo; added a 1m handicap at Newcastle last October and there have been some near misses on AW this year too; not beaten far into fifth at Thirsk on Saturday on her return to Class 5 level; well drawn but slower than good would be a concern.

Turf winner as 2yo; some good AW runs since winning at Newcastle (1m) in October but she's slacked off on her last two starts and needs a turnaround now back on this surface; has more to prove than some.

Tough front-runner; ran a rare poor race last time but had been in good form prior to that, notably when a close third at Ayr last month (1m, good to firm); major chance.

Front-running 11yo with seven course wins, the latest gained over 1m (good) last spring; creditable placed efforts on his last three starts (including C&D) and should give it another good shot, for all this is a higher grade than he's been contesting.

Won three times in Ireland for Mick Mulvany, including at Listowel (1m, heavy) last September; low key in five starts for new trainer, slipping 9lb in the weights - now 1lb below that last winning mark; needs revival on AW return (3-9).

Signed off in Ireland with Listowel win (1m, heavy) last autumn; well held at long odds in four runs (7f-1m2f) for this yard; beginning to fall in the weights but probably best watched unless strong in the market.

Four wins in 2025 and he wasn't far away over 1m1f here in September; in reasonable form this year and this trip will suit better than the 1m4f he ran over at York last time out but it will be a good effort if he can win this off his current mark.
