Straight A
Only narrowly failed to justify market support in a similar C&D race last Saturday; a 1lb nudge shouldn't prevent another prominent showing.

Havana Sky
Has landed seven 6f AW wins in the last 13 months, the latest at Lingfield in October; good second over C&D last month and player if a lesser effort back over 6f since can be forgiven.

Arnaz
Has drawn a blank since a 7f handicap debut success at Brighton in May 2024 but plenty of creditable efforts this year, including second over 6f at Kempton in September; excuses on turf at Yarmouth later that month (final start for Ed Walker); enters calculations on first outing for Mark Loughnane (same owner).

Bint Havana Gold
C&D scorer who resumed winning ways at Chelmsford (6f) in October; not at her best twice since but she's not the type to stay down for long and might be happier back in a 0-70; also well drawn.

Dragon God
Hinted at ability in three qualifying runs (including 7f on AW) and brings unexposed potential to this handicap debut after wind surgery; also tongue-tied first time; all the more interesting if backed.

Token Gesture
Won on nursery debut at Kempton (7f) last autumn but hasn't gone on from that in six runs since; still 5lb higher than for his win and needs to find more for first-time cheekpieces.

Dapper Gee Gee
Got off the mark at Chepstow (7f) in June; runner-up three times on turf since but weakened quickly back on AW at Kempton 17 days ago and seventh is the placing he's managed in his four AW outings.

Diddy Man
C&D winner in April; some decent efforts on turf since but blotted his copybook when refusing to race at Chepstow in August and always behind returned to AW here in early October.

The Caribbean
On a losing run but took a step back in the right direction when a close second over C&D at the beginning of October; being put back up 3lb doesn't help but he is well capable in this grade if putting his best foot forward.

Lessay
Ex-Ed Dunlop; has won twice over 7f at Kempton, latest in March; yet to hit form for new yard but is becoming well handicapped.

Book Of Life
Both wins on AW, including here (9.4f) off 1lb lower in February; off seven months, well held at Newcastle (1m) on debut for new yard 14 days ago; needs to have come on a fair bit.

Ten Club
Gained compensation for a near miss over C&D when scoring at Lingfield (7f) last month; his run of good form came to a halt back at Lingfield 11 days ago but a wide trip didn't help.
