Often leads; 7f winner at this meeting in 2024 and he went out on his shield in the Gold Cup (soft) last year off 1lb lower, giving up his lead only late on; had two wind surgeries in 2026, returning from the latest one with two solid efforts, struck into when sixth in the Portland at Doncaster last week; cheekpieces return in place of a visor; good form chance.

Made all in a 6.5f handicap at this meeting 12 months ago before a narrow defeat in the Ayr Gold Cup six days later (off this mark); first two runs this year weren't up to much but he had wind surgery in June and last month's midfield finish at York was much more like it; a visor is now reached for, replacing cheekpieces, and he is an interesting contender.

J: Tom Marquand

T: William Haggas

Got going too late in the Silver Cup 12 months ago but went on to run out an impressive winner at York (6f, good) three weeks later; looked a prime candidate for a major handicap on that occasion and his return to action at York's Dante meeting (6f, good), when finishing with a flourish having raced away from the main action, did little to dispel that notion; two fast-ground runs since have both been perfectly serviceable and today's return to slower ground could be the catalyst for him to fulfil his potential.

Got up late to win Bath novice (5f, good to firm) for Andrew Balding in June; 0-9 for this yard (majority 6f, turf/AW) and first-time cheekpieces (removed) didn't spark an improved effort last time; career-low mark and second go at this trip (first is easily excused) the straws to clutch at.

Has come from the rear for her two wins this season (6f/7f, good to firm; versatile ground-wise); looked as good as ever when keeping on for third at Haydock (7f, good) a fortnight ago and a strongly run 6f in a big field could prove ideal for this progressive filly; on the shortlist.

Runner-up over C&D (to Little Mi Mi) and at York in June/July; has lost his form on turf this autumn but is well handicapped again and a good AW record (3-9) provides the hope for better this time.

Poor strike-rate and he hasn't been at his best since finishing second at Southwell in October; slipping down the weights but others arrive in better form.

Just one win from his 21 starts but he was twice a runner-up over C&D last autumn and he is now 4lb lower than for the second of those efforts; recent runs need bettering if he is to take this though.

Just one win from 17 starts (5.5f, good to firm; off 3lb lower mark) but he comes here on the back of two good second-place finishes at Southwell; clear of the third on latter occasion and a 2lb rise justified; should be in the thick of it.

Recorded 40-1 win over 6f here (good to soft) a year ago but has lost her way since and refused to race on latest appearance 25 days ago; others are much less risky.

Shock 6f winner at Ayr (good to soft; 40-1, from 5lb higher) last July; not much to enthuse about since (0-5) but she was returning from a two-month break when fifth at Ayr (1m, good to firm; Mwafaq runner-up) latest; stamina is a major risk over 8.5f.

40-1 winner of a 6f handicap here last summer; well below that level in her last three races (6f/7f) and there are stamina doubts over this far.
