Form & Verdict
Handles any ground and he got back in the groove when making all off a reduced mark at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago; back up 5lb but he remains well handicapped on old form and should make another bold bid.

Form & Verdict
Both wins have come on Tapeta at Southwell (5f/6f); hasn't made an impact in last five runs but she caught the eye with her late headway behind So Smart (sixth of 14) at Lingfield last time; needs to build on that but she's still unexposed on turf and is not ruled out.

Form & Verdict
Four-time AW winner who is 1-16 on turf but he ran well to finish a close second over C&D (good to firm) last Monday; this return to forecast slower ground is no problem and he's a big player if he can repeat that latest form; cheekpieces reapplied.

J: Tom Marquand

T: Ian Williams

Runner-up in this race last year and he scored off 1lb lower at Chester (5f, good) last July; never a threat on his reappearance at Lingfield (6f) last month but he pulled hard and this drop back in trip is a positive; usually comes from off the pace and has claims if he gets the breaks.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo who has form on on good to firm and good to soft; ended last season with a Southwell win (5f, AW) and he reappeared with close second over C&D two weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he's an interesting contender off an unchanged mark.

He'd been headed when badly hampered at Newbury recently (not recover) but was without his usual visor, in which he was running really well in defeat previously under Chloe Lyons at up to 5.2f; he should be fine at this trip; the visor returns and he could bounce back with a big run.

Recent form-figures look less than encouraging but she returned from a short break with a respectable fourth at Windsor and then showed up well for a long way over 6f at Lingfield; now returns to the C&D of her last three successes and she's back to her last winning mark; might be the answer.

His losing run goes back to October 2024 and he was only fifth at Lingfield (5f, good) last month, but prior to that he was second over this C&D (good to firm) and the return to Windsor could be a plus for this two-time C&D winner; he's one to consider.
