11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |

Veteran loves it here; has won eleven times, including three over C&D, most recently off this mark last September; poor both runs this season, however, and not well drawn here. |

Veteran has won 11 races; sole success last year came off 76 at Roscommon (7.5f, soft); beaten 20l on seasonal return over 1m last time (soft to heavy); others preferred. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
The oldest contender and a familiar face, having taken part in this race for the last four years (form figures read 6529); beat all bar Eldrickjones over C&D last month but the return to this better grade presents a tougher task. |

Four-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021; second in it last year; has continued in good form in the main since winning over C&D last November (didn't run badly at Doncaster latest) and is on the shortlist now back here. |

Arrives here fit and in form after a third of nine at Haydock (7f, soft; unraced on firmer than good) three weeks ago; C&D winner earlier in career; should be in the thick of things again. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Last year's Golden Mile win at Goodwood (strong record there) shows he's still smart on his day; respectable return to action when fifth in good conditions race over 7f here three weeks ago but he's gained the vast majority of his ten career wins on slower ground than he's likely to encounter this afternoon. |

Last year's Golden Mile win at Goodwood (strong record there) shows he's still smart on his day; third in this in 2022 but hasn't beaten a rival in the last two runnings (all reappearance); safe to look elsewhere. |

Admirable mare who is 12-21 on turf including wins at Group 3/Listed level; has winning form over C&D, but will need to improve plenty on her reappearance effort at Saint-Cloud in March if she is to play a part here. |

7th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
3-13 at Chester (the wins over 7.6f) but the last time he scored anywhere was in May 2023; has his lowest mark since 2020 and a shout on plenty of 2024 form, but seasonal debut may not be his best moment. |

27th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 7f 37y Class 3 |

Dual course winner who went close over C&D last month but he's been disappointing since including a laboured effort back here last time; losing run is now up to 15 and others are more convincing. |

Both turf wins on soft and won a Listed race on AW in November; ducks and dives regarding the trip but he nearly made his first 6f turf handicap a winning one at Goodwood recently; back up 4lb but has course form at 7f; interesting. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Very productive in 2025, winning five times; hindered by wide draw at Chester most recently, otherwise has a good record over 5f; just needs to prove he can overcome current mark. |
12/1 |

9th 13 (12) |
7th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Posted duck eggs over 6f in last two appearances, not beaten entirely by the trip; has a very good record at 5f but faces a harder task off current mark at this level, especially from an unfavourable draw. |
33/1 |

10th 9 (10) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Enjoyed a revival in the second half of 2025, winning five 5f handicaps on good ground or slower; no show over 6f when last seen in November and he returns to action off a tough mark. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Stable stalwart; just 1lb higher than for his front-running C&D win last November (soft) but his two runs this year have been unconvincing; will no doubt pop up at some point but perhaps in a race with less pace pressure. |
16/1 |
|
14th 7 (9) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
He has been a fine advertisement for Katie Scott, winning 13 races over 7f and 1m; 0-6 at this trip but he was beaten less than one length in the 2023 Ayr Gold Cup; recent Musselburgh return should have blown away the cobwebs but others are still more appealing for win purposes. |
33/1 |
|
7th 5 (10) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Often leads; superb 9yo with six course wins, the latest over C&D (soft) in November; not weighted out of it off the same mark as his second to Persuasion here last April but he's had a much longer break this time and is drawn widest. |
13/2 |
