T: George Baker

In the form of his life when winning four in a row for Ben Brookhouse last summer, namely a maiden hurdle followed by three Flat handicaps over 1m2f and 1m4f (twice) on good/good to firm; better effort in Bahrain for George Baker this year when third of seven over 1m2f (good to firm) five weeks ago; returns to Britain on a career-high mark and may prove vulnerable to less-exposed sorts.

Won the 2024 Ladies' Derby at Epsom and repeated the trick when romping away with this year's edition (1m4f, good to firm) in June; completed a hat-trick (first leg was over hurdles) when defying penalty under Paul Hainey at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month and a 4lb rise for that success looks fair; usually sets the pace and he's a big player again in his bid to make it 3-4 over C&D; cheekpieces added.

Form & Verdict
In good form with blinkers fitted over C&D for this yard this season, winning an apprentice event on reappearance (good to firm) and last time finishing a close second (good to soft; caught last stride) off 4lb higher; up another 2lb; should go well again.

Held off his revised mark since an AW win late last year; not a bad effort back from a break returned to turf at Chester (1m4f; good record first time out in his younger years) last time and this is less competitive.

J: Zak Wheatley

T: Tony Carroll

Ended 2025 with emphatic AW win at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) and came second on both AW starts in January (1m2f/9.4f); absent since lesser effort in February and not ideally drawn today but has two course wins (including a division of this race in 2024) on his CV; could have a say.

Form & Verdict
Only turf win was over 1m2f here in July 2022 (good); has found winning difficult since then although most of his runs have been on the AW; has a 5lb lower turf mark but just a fair turf run at Bath (1m2f) last time; can pull hard and well beaten on only previous try at 1m4f.

0-7; having been gelded and undergone wind surgery he made a promising return/stable debut when third of 16 at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) last month, but twice held since including when around 5l behind Blueflagflyinghigh at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) nine days ago; switch to blinkers will need to make a difference.

Very busy and he's had his share of wins, including four over 2m in 2025, but that's been mostly on AW which has dominated his career; best turf ratings were on last two outings but his turf form still needs improvement.

Prominent racer who posted four wins in the second half of last year, including a C&D defeat of Charging Thunder on good; suffered a heavy defeat on AW last time but it was in a strong Good Friday race at Newcastle and Charging Thunder was once again behind him; a bold show seems likely in these much calmer waters back on turf.
