J: Jack Callan

Gained second win of 2026 at Leicester (1m) in May and has continued in good form, refitted in cheekpieces when fourth of seven at Musselburgh (1m) 16 days ago; that form has been franked so he can go well again.

OR: 75

Form & Verdict
Won handicaps at Kempton and Leicester in April before posting an eyecatching third of 12 in a Newcastle handicap (7f, AW) when not enjoying the smoothest of passages; latest run at Lingfield can probably be ignored, when not much went right; trip should be fine and he'll likely bounce back under his promising apprentice Elizabeth Gale.

J: Jack Doughty

Four-time turf winner who scored off 1lb higher over C&D last autumn; took a while to get going this season but he's been placed at with cheekpieces added in his last two runs (1m, good to firm); usually comes from off the pace and has possibilities if he gets some luck.

Had a fine year in 2025 and he spent the spring in the handicapper's claws; offered more encouragement when tried in cheekpieces at Newbury (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago; should have a big run in him.

J: Cieren Fallon

A 2025 campaign that featured five wins was always going to be a hard act to follow and he has found it tough going so far this year; has slipped back to a winning mark though and cheekpieces are now given a go.

Form & Verdict
Dual 2yo winner (including on good to firm) who proved she's trained on with a good third at Lingfield (7.5f, good; Knights Gold sixth) last month; did well to get so close having raced away from the favoured rail that day and commands serious respect off the same mark.

Still seeking her first handicap success but she's run well to be placed in her last three starts; drawn widest and she'll need a bit more to win but the extended mile could suit.

Form & Verdict
Can race freely; three wins over C&D (twice on firm; once when making all) and he went close to adding a fourth when fighting out a fairly tight finish with Thapa Vc in May; again took a grip when flopping at Newbury next time but he's tactically versatile and of interest back here.

Form & Verdict
Standout run came when second in a Salisbury maiden (7f, good to firm) last August but not so good in testing conditions subsequently and she left Rod Millman (still with same owner) after finishing down the field on her handicap debut at Newbury in September; didn't settle on her reappearance in a Wolverhampton novice (8.5f, AW) last month but she's likely capable of better now returned to this sphere.

Front-runner who's well suited by a stiff 1m2f, winning twice last summer and going close over C&D in the autumn off tonight's mark; soon gave way once headed on her recent AW comeback from eight months off and needs to improve a lot on that.

Improving in July, making all in good style at Sandown and Leicester (both 1m2f, good); creditable third over C&D (good to soft) last month and better still when beaten a head at Salisbury (1m2f, good) latest; her two runs on soft/heavy were offputting, albeit last season.
