10/1 |
Parramount
Bumper and triple hurdle winner; 0-9 on the Flat but has threatened this year and latest defeat came in a far better race than this; respected.

- David Probert / A King

Outgun
Had a bit in hand at Kempton (1m4f; 3lb lower) but ran no race back there last time; gives his running more often than not and, back into a Class 5, is not discounted.

7/1 |
Sax Appeal
1m4f winner here earlier in the year and, back off that winning mark, he was beaten 2l last time at Chelmsford (1m5f); handicapper left him alone for that and Archie Young returns with his 5lb claim; thereabouts.

Banderas
Won a 1m4f Chester maiden in 2023 but 0-8 in handicaps and left Michael Bell for 15,000gns after a remote fourth at Southwell (2m); others hold greater appeal.

Had a ball here last winter when winning four on the bounce over 1m4f; handicapper has looked in charge ever since.

Haliphon
Haydock winner in September and hasn't been that far away since, beaten under 3l at Southwell latest (1m4f) despite finding some trouble; can go well.

Percy Jones
Has only ever won here, the latest in gritty fashion over 2m a month ago (3lb lower); expect another positive ride back in trip.

Two Auld Pals
Five turf wins include one over hurdles; first run on the AW when coming clear with the favourite over 2m here 12 days ago; 2lb rise is fair and he's fine at this trip.

D Day Arvalenreeva
Runner-up three times at about 1m4f before backwards steps the last twice; cheekpieces tried last time are removed; has a big effort in her.

5/1 |
Sun Dancer Girl
Strike-rate of 4-12 and benefited from the return to patient tactics when winning at Lingfield (1m4f) with the front two dominant; no reason why she won't have another big say off 3lb higher.

Eagle's Realm
Four wins on Tapeta at up to 2m last autumn/winter; ran okay over 1m4f here last week given he wants further.
