11st 6lb

Had plenty of Flat racing and won five times; 0-6 as a hurdler and after his fourth to The Resdev Tyke on Boxing Day he ran no race at Sedgefield; others preferred.

J: Charlie Maggs

T: Donald McCain

Five-time Flat winner who is 0-5 over hurdles but ran pretty well when fourth of 11 at Wetherby (2m, soft) on Boxing Day on his first handicap start in this code; today's extra yardage looks a plus and he's in with a chance.

Sweet Kiss

9st 9lb

J: Jake Dickson

T: Tim Easterby

She won three times under Jake Dickson last August/September (1m2f, good to firm-good to soft) and may have needed her comeback run at Hamilton (1m3f, good) 12 days ago; however, she was well beaten and a swift and major turnaround is necessary.

Sweet Kiss

9st 1lb

J: Warren Fentiman

T: Tim Easterby

Won three times over 1m2f under 7lb claimer Jake Dickson last August/September; progressive overall in that campaign and needs respect if she's sufficiently tuned up for this reappearance; market may guide.

Division Day

10st 6lb

J: Danny McMenamin

T: Brian Ellison

Dual 1m6f Flat winner; made inauspicious start to hurdling career but seemed very much to be getting his act together when keeping on to snatch second at Doncaster (2m, soft) 12 days ago, and promises to be suited by today's step up in trip; leading contender.

J: Danny McMenamin

4yo who was progressive at an ordinary level on the Flat in autumn; took a step forward when fourth at Wetherby (2m, soft) last month on third hurdle start but beaten 18l and needs another chunk of improvement.

Its Only Fun

10st 3lb

J: Mr Aiden Blakemore

T: Sara Ender

Handicapper quick to ease off this spring and he turned in his best effort for this yard when fourth behind Sisterandbrother at Doncaster last weekend; inclined to over-race back in cheekpieces there and has to prove he can do it on the AW.

9st 6lb

J: Tom Kiely-Marshall

T: Sara Ender

Won on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last April but he's 0-9 since and has been well held in four runs this year; now 10lb lower than for his win but he weakened quickly at Nottingham three weeks ago and others are preferred; cheekpieces (tried once last year) are reapplied.

9st 9lb

J: Ben Robinson

T: Brian Ellison

Took form to new level when drawing clear to score at Pontefract (1m4f, good) in April 2025 but absent since disappointing run over 1m6f a few weeks later, and this drop back to 1m2f is probably not ideal.

0-22 but he arrives in good form, third in minor handicaps at Beverley and Catterick on his last two starts; more minor money could be forthcoming.

Remains a maiden after 21 starts and he's had several opportunities off a similar mark to today's, but he's been running pretty well of late and was third of seven at Beverley last Monday; might have an each-way shout.
