J: Darragh Keenan

T: S Woods

Last four starts in cheekpieces; went close at Newmarket (2m, good to firm; acts on AW) in June but the effect of the headgear seems to have worn off and he was beaten a long way four weeks ago; carries risks after that but does have a commendable course record and that keeps him in the picture.

Scored at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last October and has been placed five times this year, although he was beaten over 8l when third back on AW at Lingfield (1m5f) a fortnight ago; others are preferred.

T: S Woods

Scored at Southwell (1m6f, AW) last October and has been placed four times this year; may have found the drop back in trip against him when fifth of six at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) last month; cheekpieces return to replace blinkers but he may find this trip on the sharp side.

J: Sean Levey

T: S Woods

One win from 14 races; three seconds from five starts this year, beaten a head at Newmarket (2m, good to firm; made most) 18 days ago in first-time cheekpieces; they are now replaced by blinkers; last time he raced over shorter than 1m6f was in June 2025 but this isn't a strong race; good chance.

J: Billy Loughnane

T: S Woods

Ran away with a Southwell handicap (1m6f, AW) last October; second twice there (2m/1m6f) this April and he wasn't beaten far when making the running on good to firm at Yarmouth (1m6f) eight days ago, albeit coming last in a three-runner race; chance if he takes to the first-time headgear.
