W: 9st 10lb

4 yo

OR: 93

Form & Verdict
All of his 12 runs have been on turf; has a patchy record but his last win was off this mark at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last July and he bounced back with a clear second behind a well-handicapped rival at Chester (7.6f, soft) last month; has claims if he can build on that and he's fresh after just two runs this season.

Form & Verdict
5yo who is not easy to predict but he's won at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) and Ascot (7f, good to soft) this year and was a close second at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last time; nudged up 2lb but he could make another bold bid back on Tapeta.

8yo who won off this mark on his stable debut at Ripon (1m, good) last month; two reasonable performances have followed (1m/1m2f, good to firm/good) but he needs something extra to come out on top today.

Probably better known for his AW exploits nowadays but he led close home to cause 28-1 surprise on recent stable debut at Ripon (1m, good), his ninth career success; nudged up only 1lb for that and is a rare runner here for his Middleham-based trainer; respected.

Form & Verdict
Won at Leicester (7f, good to soft) on his debut in October 2021 and he's finished placed in all three runs since; still has potential but he was beaten 4l when third at Newcastle (1m, Tapeta) last week and needs to find more progress.

Form & Verdict
Not as good as he was but has already collected four wins this year, most recently when prevailing by a nose at Leicester (1m, soft) last month; only 2lb higher here but he was well held at Redcar last time and this is tougher back up in grade; others preferred.

Took advantage of a reduced mark when making all at Newmarket (1m, good to soft) in June; went close there (1m, good) next time and he ran another good race when fourth of 13 at Haydock four weeks ago; remains feasibly treated on his best form and he's had a near miss here in the past; respected from good draw.

J: Ashley Lewis

9yo who looked as good as ever when making all with something to spare at Sandown (1m, good) in May on his sole run this season; however, he's never defied a mark this high and may be vulnerable in this hot contest.

Improved his record to 4-8 when landing a Kempton handicap (7f, Polytrack) on his return in May, but his form has slumped in two runs over 7f at Ascot since; now drops back in grade but he has some questions to answer at this new trip.

Ended 2025 with a pair of heavy-ground wins at Doncaster (7f); useful form in defeat this year, in the frame in competitive York handicaps (good ground) on consecutive days last month; another good run when fifth of 17 on quick going at the same venue last time; ground-versatile, trip a worry.

Form: 155364

Last run: 10 days

W: 9st 10lb

6 yo Gelding

OR: 93

Form & Verdict
Just one win from 20 starts on turf but he's 5-25 on AW and is more potent in this sphere; ran into plenty of trouble when a creditable fourth at Ripon (1m, good) last Monday and he's on a workable mark on this return to Tapeta; could be a big factor if he gets a good pace and some luck.

Not beaten far on any of his three hurdling starts for Fergal O'Brien this season and, given he was very useful on the Flat at his best, could quite plausibly turn out to be well treated for this handicap hurdle debut.
