T: David & Nicola Barron

Without a win since August 2024 but well treated on last year's best efforts and he shaped when seventh of 14 over C&D three weeks ago as though he'd be sharper for that comeback run; seems to like it here; on the shortlist.

J: Saffie Osborne

T: David & Nicola Barron

A losing sequence is mounting but he has a win and a third from just two attempts over C&D, and the latter was first time out last season; 7lb lower here and he's of obvious interest if cherry ripe after 161 days off (has had wind surgery); one of two very plausible candidates for the Barrons.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: Michael Dods

Made it two wins from his 11 starts when scoring at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month and respectable fifth of 13 in good 3yo handicap at York (5f, good) last Saturday; each-way claims back down in grade.

Mighty Magnus

J: Mark Winn

T: Michael Dods

Has gained both wins in Scotland, including at Musselburgh (5f, good; did it readily) latest start; generally consistent sort but will need further progress to defy a 5lb rise and follow up in this field.

J: Mikey Sheehy

Two wins over 5f on soft/heavy as a juvenile, the second a Listed event at Chantilly; hasn't won since and only seventh of nine on reappearance, but on a fair mark; could go well though stall 1 a slight negative.

Montezuma

9st 10lb

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Jim Goldie

Often threatened better as a 3yo and he has made good progress this year, albeit he only has one win (5f, good to soft) to show for it; not beaten far into fifth in a blanket finish at Thirsk 17 days ago (5f, good); now sports a hood for the first time and that could help this free-going sort.

Competitive over 5f at Musselburgh this spring and wasn't at his best at Hamilton two weeks ago (6f); capable of bouncing back.

Won off an 11lb mark at Musselburgh last August (5f, good); hasn't run as well since and below-par over same C&D last time (good); dropped another 3lb so no surprise if he were to go well.
