Can lead; had some good results for previous yard and was running well in Bahrain earlier in 2025 for this one but he wasn't on his game in the Dash at Epsom recently, nor was he good enough in this race last year. |

Ex-Andrew Balding; inconsistent last year but smart on his day, notably when winning a 6f handicap at Newmarket's Guineas meeting; in good form in Bahrain this year, most recently showing plenty of pluck to win a local Grade 1 (5f, good) in March; returns to Britain with an inflated mark but he's drawn against the rail and has the pace to capitalise; significant rain would be a query. |

Can lead; often distinguishes himself at this level, including when runner-up in this race in 2023, and after going down narrowly in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) he was denied by only American Affair, who won the Group 1 King Charles III on Tuesday, in the Portland at Doncaster in September; justice was finally done when he saw off Jarraaf in a Group 3 over C&D (soft) in October but he needs to be better than ever to defy this mark. |

Finally exploited his drop in the weights when winning a C&D handicap last October (heavy ground); should come on for March's return to action at Doncaster and while slower ground would be ideal, he did run well in a fast-ground Stewards' Cup in 2020. |

Useful in his younger days and, having regressed last year, has found his level again of late; easily beat a big field from the front at York last weekend and a 6lb rise may well be within range now he's back in the groove. |

9st 11lb |
Has strong C&D form in the past and a sprinting superstar in his time, especially at Ascot, but the old fire is lacking now and he remains on the same mark as when failing to beat a rival back at Ascot in May; reunited with Neil Callan, on board for his latest win in October 2023, and any rain to fall will have helped. |

Five of his last six wins have come over C&D, including a couple of Wokinghams and two Group 3s; not as good as he was but that is reflected in his mark and he went close off this rating at Southwell 12 days ago; losing run stands at 20 but expect him to be popular once again. |

Went close on reappearance at Ripon (6f, good) and now 2lb lower; four lesser runs have followed and this 8yo is without a win since 2023, but he's a two-time C&D winner who is likely to get back on track at some stage. |

The years looked to be catching up last season but he's gone well fresh in the past and returned with a solid effort off 2lb lower at Doncaster in March; didn't build on that latest and such an easy 5f wouldn't appeal as optimal. |

Top-of-the-trees in the best sprint handicaps down the years, winning the Stewards' Cup in 2020 and the Gold Cup in 2022; failed to beat a rival here 12 months ago but the weight has fallen off his back since and his run at the Curragh last week was encouraging; could well have a decent crack at this; refitted cheekpieces replace regular visor. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

In good form on AW over the winter, winning twice over 6f; that trip stretches him on turf and neither of his Newmarket runs this spring have been too shabby; only 1lb higher than for his Lingfield success in March and the ground won't be an issue; first visit to Epsom but the return to 5f will suit and he's not out of it if he takes to the unique challenge. |

He'd been in good form on AW this winter prior to his midfield finish over C&D 17 days ago (race not run to suit); work to do with a couple of reopposing rivals but he did enough there to think he's still in top form; has the ability to play a leading role. |

Began 2023 with two AW wins; fair Listed fifth last May and was beaten just 2l into fifth in a red-hot race here on handicap debut last June; raced too freely back from 322 days off at Newmarket three weeks ago (6f, good) but that might have got the freshness out of him and he did move well for a long way; the drop to 5f is an interesting move and he appeals as being ahead of this mark; his only run on slower than good was on debut. |
