Multiple wins, seven of them on Polytrack, and only 2lb higher than for his Lingfield success in February (1m5f); tailed off at Salisbury five weeks ago after a break; should be seen to better effect back on this surface.

10yo whose last three wins came in this race (2022, 2023 and 2025) and it's now named after him; did it in good style from the back last year (good to firm) and is now 3lb higher; made a satisfactory return to action at Yarmouth last month and the chief concern today is probably whether there will be enough pace in the race for his stamina to kick in sufficiently.

Shed his maiden tag in the corresponding race in 2021 (good to soft) and he has added a further four wins, the last three in consecutive renewals of a 2m handicap at Newmarket; chased home a stablemate in this race last year after a six-month absence; back from eight months off today and perhaps vulnerable to younger legs.

Handles Tapeta but is best known for his Chelmsford work and has three poor efforts to his name here, including one at a short price; is long odds-on to blow the start too, so doesn't come without risk, going without headgear for the first time in ages.

Two turf wins over shorter and should stay this far; started this season with two good runs at Doncaster but his form dipped on faster ground 19 days ago; unplaced all six AW runs but appears to handle it; Oisin Murphy booked and he can't be discounted.
