J: Neil Callan

Took a step back in the right direction with his close sixth at Haydock on latest start and he's back in the visor in which his last five wins have come, including two last season (7f, good to firm); entitled to respect.

J: Ben Robinson

T: David O’Meara

Came good at Goodwood last August (7f, good to firm), running on strongly to bag a Class 2 handicap; faced a stiff task in a Thirsk conditions event on his reappearance two weeks ago; opposable with his usual visor remaining absent.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: David O’Meara

Useful sort who landed fast-ground handicap wins over C&D and at Goodwood last year; however, he has plenty to find on these terms and failed to beat a rival on his reappearance in 2024 and 2025.

J: Mark Winn

T: David O’Meara

A 7yo with high mileage but did well to win going away from well off the pace at Goodwood a fortnight ago (7f, good to firm), denying the bang-in-form Great Acclaim; hit with a 6lb rise but this softer ground won't faze him and he should run well.

Best form this term at Thirsk, namely success in May and creditable effort (despite tardy start and traffic issues) last time; capable of being involved, albeit is far more exposed than some of these rivals.
