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 & Verdict
All wins on AW but it's unwise to pigeonhole him as an AW specialist given earlier turf promise (peak RPR at Goodwood last May); heavy ground was too much for him at Goodwood 16 days ago but better can be expected this time.

J: Ashley Lewis

T: Peter Crate

Scored at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) in May and probably bettered that performance when very close second at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month; recent Windsor run is best overlooked (saddle slipped); slightly out of the weights but the return to 6f won't be a problem; probably won't be far away.

Form & Verdict
Usually needs his reappearance but, even allowing for that, his recent Thirsk comeback was modest; may need a bit more help from the handicapper.

Chasing a hat-trick after two wins in Bahrain in February (second past the post on more recent occasion); up in the weights now back in Britain and he'll need to take his form to the next level to defy top weight.
