9st 12lb

J: Connor Beasley

T: Michael Dods

Retains plenty of ability aged eight; regained the winning thread at York (7f) in July and finished a close third in the Summer Cup at Thirsk (1m) last time; solid chance in current form.

J: Connor Beasley

T: Michael Dods

Nosed ahead in the final strides at York (7f) last time, ending a two-year losing spell and showing he retains plenty of ability aged eight; back up just 2lb he remains well treated on historical data; won the Thirsk Hunt Cup over C&D in 2023; should remain competitive.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Michael Dods

High-class handicapper at 7f/1m; winless since landing a valuable 7f handicap at Ascot in July 2024 but he is now 7lb lower and he retains plenty of ability; should be sharper with last month's reappearance behind him; bold bid expected as he attempts to win this race for a second time.

J: Sean Kirrane

T: Michael Dods

High-class handicapper at 7f/1m; winless since landing a valuable 7f handicap at Ascot in July 2024 but he is now 6lb lower and three runs in Bahrain this winter suggested he retained a chunk of ability; back from four months off and this is perhaps not the day to catch him.

9st 1lb

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Michael Dods

7yo who hasn't been able to reproduce his very best form this season but he's dropped down the weights accordingly and there have been promising signs on his last few starts, finishing fifth of 17 over C&D (good to firm) in August and fourth of 14 at Ayr (1m, soft) last time; in the mix.

5/1
