J: Jonny Peate

T: Richard Phillips

All three wins have come at Brighton (1m2f/1m4f); placed in his last two starts in similar contests at Lingfield (1m4f, Polytrack) and has run well on Tapeta at Southwell; first-time visor replaces the usual blinkers and he has every chance on these terms; high on list.

Has suffered some heavy defeats of late, but almost sprang a 80-1 surprise when only headed close home by Foinix over C&D last Tuesday; if he is able to back up that run then he comes here with a shout.

All three wins have come at Brighton, the latest a year ago; heavy defeats in his last four starts make him hard to recommend.

J: Miss Delphi Parkinson

T: Richard Phillips

His three wins have come at Brighton and he has a patchy record on Tapeta; has been running poorly and doesn't make much appeal.

Two runs here came in this race but he couldn't better his 2024 runner-up spot when only sixth last year; reappearance effort wasn't bad eight weeks ago but he's been poor in both starts this month, including when well behind Gearing's Point at Brighton last Monday.
