Form & Verdict
C&D winner off this mark in April; enough solid efforts since to think he was still in form and his proven ability in the mud will stand him in good stead here.

J: Kieren Fox

T: Michael Attwater

Veteran who is often a front-runner but he's not won since August 2023 and he's been well beaten in his two starts this year; on career-low mark but he has a lot to prove.

Form & Verdict
12-race maiden; went close in a modest 1m maiden at Ffos Las last month but he was put in his place in a 1m2f handicap at Newbury (soft) 11 days ago; cheekpieces need to make a big difference.

J: David Probert

Just one win from 35 starts and he finished eighth of nine in a classified event at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; remains unexposed over this trip but he's hard to predict and others are more convincing.

J: Callum Hutchinson

T: Bernard Llewellyn

Record of 1-34 but his win was at Ffos Las last summer and he returned from a break with an encouraging fifth here (8.6f classified) last month; should benefit from that run and he could be dangerous back up in trip.

Form & Verdict
Four times a winner, including over this trip, and he ran well for third at Lingfield last month (1m2f, AW); seems to handle soft ground but his two turf wins have come on good.

Seven-time winner from 1m-1m2f; not on a bad mark on the pick of last season's efforts, but he has been absent for 193 days and and an inexperienced amateur takes the ride (first Flat ride under rules).

5 yo Gelding

Form & Verdict
Currently 0-20 but he has been run well in five of his six starts this year (2m an excuse on the other occasion); Oisin Murphy an eyecatching booking; cheekpieces back on; promise on good to soft but unraced on slower.

Form & Verdict
Got up late to win a 1m2f handicap at Lingfield (AW; cheekpieces first time); not disgraced the next twice but his form dipped markedly back on turf 12 days ago (second heavy defeat in two turf runs); something to prove on grass, not least his ability to handle heavy ground.

Having dropped down the weights he returned to form with a neck second at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) three weeks ago; has also run well on Polytrack; can be in the mix back up 3lb if producing another good run.
