J: Ethan Tindall

Has an excellent record in this race, with a second in 2022 and wins in 2023 and 2024 (all on soft/heavy); only fifth to Lexington Blitz on good 12 months ago but his second (Lexington Blitz third) in the Epsom Dash (good to soft) shows he's still useful, and he can be made to look well treated on that form even from 3lb out of the handicap; any easing of the ground in his favour.

Won this race in 2024 when rated 8lb higher; well handicapped on even this year's best, 3lb lower than when second in the Dash at Epsom (5f, good to soft); stall 1 not ideal for one that comes from off the pace and he will need luck in running; big chance if the gaps appear though.

J: Ethan Tindall

All ten wins at 5f; last scored just over a year ago on good to firm but he's got plenty of form on a softer surface and ran well when runner-up in Epsom's "Dash" in June; also performed with credit at Glorious Goodwood and could be the type to bounce back from a lesser effort at Pontefract a fortnight ago; having just his second outing here since winning a C&D novice back in 2021.

Form & Verdict
Second on three of her last five runs, including at Musselburgh (7f, good) on Monday; surplus stamina may be no bad thing if the ground is very testing, but on recent evidence the drop back to 5f isn't an obvious plus.

Form & Verdict
Beaten about 4l when fourth of nine at Haydock (5f, soft) three weeks ago and needs something extra here, but he's had a very good season, with two wins in August (5f, heavy/good to soft) and a close third of 19 at York (5f, good to soft) two starts ago; could be in the mix.
