J: Shay Farmer

Veteran who has gained most of his wins at this venue, including this race in 2020 and 2025 (same mark as today); hasn't built on his reappearance second at Ripon in two subsequent outings but a revival can't be ruled out back here.

J: Jake Dickson

T: Tim Easterby

The latest of his 12 wins (Flat/hurdles) came at Catterick (1m6f, good) last October when ridden by Jake Dickson; flattered by proximity to eased-down winner at Ripon (2m, soft) ten days ago, but that rival has won twice again since and this 10yo may step forward from that first run since January.

Form & Verdict
Carlisle (1m6f, soft) in June saw her break a long losing run; back in that sort of form when fourth at Haydock (1m6f, good) on latest outing and this 9yo mare will probably be thereabouts.

10yo who snapped a losing sequence at Carlisle last June and reappeared with a good second here (1m6f, good) last month; she should be fine back up in trip and can be bang there if backing up that latest performance.

Form & Verdict
Sole win (23 races) was over hurdles in Ireland in April 2023; with new yard for last five starts, mostly on Flat and best of those was his second at Southwell (2m, AW) last time out; well treated on that and his trainer won this race in 2019 and 2021.

Just missed out at Chester (12.3f, good) in July but her form has slipped in the wrong direction in three subsequent runs; edging back down the weights but she's now 0-13 and has stamina to prove at this new trip.

Form & Verdict
Only five races and started to finish a bit closer, beaten 5l when fifth of ten at Pontefract (1m4f, good) in April in his second handicap; unraced in the 193 days since, which poses a question, but he's stoutly bred and might be able to raise his game with this extra distance.
