9st 2lb

J: Daniel Muscutt

T: Paul Midgley

Into the veteran stage but he retains plenty of dash, setting a good pace at Catterick 17 days ago before weakening into third (Tuscan Point second but 8lb worse off today); likely to make a beeline for the stands' rail and more minor money could be on the cards.

9st 13lb

J: Rhys Elliott

T: Paul Midgley

The old man of the party but he still likes to get on with it and has a good record here; solid comeback second on AW in January wasn't built on but he's back down to the same mark he won this race from last year; that was a fourth C&D win and he has to enter calculations.

9st 4lb

J: David Nolan

T: Paul Midgley

Front-runner; ended 2025 campaign with a C&D second and filled the same position on his return in January, again over C&D; backward step last time but capable of a prominent showing off this mark.

9st 0lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Paul Midgley

Useful front-runner on his day and he has finished runner-up over C&D on his last two starts; unlikely to be let loose on the lead with other pace influences on show but he can't be discounted.

9st 12lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Paul Midgley

Tough campaigner with 11 wins to his name, two of them here; arrives in form after a fourth of 13 at Catterick earlier this month, and should put up another bold show.

7/2
