Form & Verdict
Not easy to win with but he has run some good races in defeat since June; has the ability to feature but his tendency to get going too late is a concern over this C&D.

Winless in 2025 but he is 3-6 over C&D and has settled matters quite emphatically on his last two starts; back up 3lb but weighted to have another race in him and it could well be this one.

Ended a lengthy losing run when beating Colors Of Freedom in a classified event over C&D two weeks ago (reported to have bled from nose); has 8lb rise to deal with back in a handicap but he remains well treated on old form and all three wins have been on AW; respected.

J: Zak Wheatley

T: Tony Culhane & Stella Barclay

Won twice over C&D in late 2025, the latter success coming off a 2lb higher mark; more recent efforts need bettering but this is likely to be run to suit and dropping back into a 0-60 could see her bounce back to form.

Form & Verdict
A better horse on AW but that isn't reflected in his handicap mark; quiet on testing ground the last twice but better judged on his Southwell second in August (6f) where he was racing off 3lb higher than today; AW wins have come at Southwell but he ran well here on his one start two years ago; strong claims.
