J: Jack Nicholls

T: K R Burke

Registered a 1m6f double last autumn; not nearly so potent this season, including beaten 10.5l when fourth on heavy at Haydock (1m6f) three weeks ago, but this is a drop in class; goes without any form of headgear for the first time in two years.

J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: K R Burke

Best ratings on no worse than good to soft, although he did win on heavy in 2024; registered a 1m6f double (C&D and Chester) last September but he's not been nearly so potent this season; experiment with cheekpieces was brief and blinkers now replace his usual visor.

J: Cam Hardie

T: K R Burke

Best ratings on no worse than good to soft, although he did win on heavy in 2024; 1m6f winner (unraced beyond that) last September on his only visit to this track; that was the second leg of a double, following a series of places, but he's not been nearly so potent this season and is 5lb out of the handicap today.

J: Toby Moore

T: K R Burke

First leg of a quick-fire double when winning this (good; visored) last year off 2lb lower and it was a fairly close third back over C&D (good to soft) three weeks later; hasn't matched that form on his last three starts, most recently in cheekpieces, but he needs a second look back at Haydock in the reapplied visor.

9st 9lb

J: Sam James

T: K R Burke

Edging back down the weights and now 3lb higher than for the latest of two wins over 1m6f last September; wore cheekpieces in a void race last month, but this is effectively his first start in them; shortlisted.
