Form & Verdict
Regressed last year but is on a competitive mark now and ran well the only time he's come across this sort of ground; has done most racing over 5f, though, and this stiff 6f would be a slight concern.

Three-time C&D winner, latterly off 4lb higher in February; fine on Polytrack but the return here is an obvious plus off a career-low mark and he's another with claims in an open handicap.

Ended 2025 with a win at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in December; has had some ups and downs since but he came from off the pace to finish a creditable third at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) two weeks ago; now 3lb lower than for his last success and has claims if he can build on that last run.

Form & Verdict
Soft/heavy-ground winner in the past who arrives in good form for his new yard, having been picked up for 6,000gns since his recent Brighton win off 4lb lower; fair chance he gets his own way into this smaller field and should go well again.

Form & Verdict
Had issues at the stalls last year and is still to get involved in a finish; didn't run badly on his comeback, having been gelded, though (first-time cheekpieces) without seeing out 7f and is lightly raced compared to the rest of these; considered.

His sole win from 24 starts came over Bath's extended 5f last May; has the same mark today and some minor honours this term, but the switch from cheekpieces to today's visor needs to make him step back up a notch.

Had excuses for her Hamilton performance 11 days ago (anticipated the start and hit the gate) having previously made a promising reappearance when third of nine over this C&D (good to firm); 1lb below her last winning mark and very much of interest back in a 0-55.

Won off this mark at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in April and fared okay back over 6f there (fourth) next time; however, he has scarcely managed to beat a rival in his last three appearances (5f-7f) which suggests that he'll find life tough, particularly from this wide draw.

Has only won once but is consistent and handles this ground fine, as she showed when just behind Danzart over C&D a fortnight ago off the same mark; often takes a grip, including since the hood went back on, but she's shortlisted.
