Coronado King
Midfield in two 7f runs for Charlie Appleby last season; sent off the 4-7f when easily winning a 6f maiden on his stable debut/return from 510-day absence in October; could well be up to this mark but not sure the Wolverhampton form is compelling evidence that he is.

Sergeant Pep
Third of 16 in a Class 3 handicap at Haydock on his seasonal return in May; well short of that level in four runs since but this is weaker and he's on a dangerous mark; big chance if proving as effective on AW as turf (mixed record so far).

Won twice in four days in February, both over 5f with the first of them at this track; may have needed last month's return from a summer break but others bring more persuasive claims.

Giorgio M
Won twice for George Boughey last year; several near misses have followed but he returns from a 193-day absence (new yard, same owners) on a mark that demands improvement.

Began 2025 with three AW wins, the first leg of his hat-trick coming over C&D and going to win twice at Wolverhampton; only midfield at Windsor when last seen three weeks ago; drawn widest but he has the ability to feature.

Balon D'or
Had a few ideas of his own when trained by Hugo Palmer but he did manage to win a 6f handicap at Chester in September; should come on for last month's stable debut here (5f) but others look more persuasive all the same.

Manhattan Chute
0-10 when trained in Ireland and he was unable to replicate his best 2yo form this summer; starts out for new connections off a reduced mark but he has more to prove than many; AW debut.

Lightning Bear
Tumbled down the weights and there has been more encouragement of late; that said, he weakened over this trip at Chelmsford on Thursday and this is a stronger race; cheekpieces (worn for his best efforts) join the hood today; others appeal more.

Way To Dubai
Yet to win in Britain but he has been threatening to put that right more recently, just missing out over 7f here last month and then close up over 6f at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago; should make another bold bid despite his 3lb rise.

Game effort to win a small-field 6f handicap at Brighton (soft ground) in September; well beaten twice since, including on AW last time, and others have much less to prove.

Harry Brown
This is a stronger race than he has been contesting but he has been better than this mark in the past; his comfortable C&D win in October was followed by a lacklustre 7f run here two weeks ago but this should be more to his liking; capable of a big run.
