Paradias
Readily accounted for his five rivals in this race last year (4lb lower mark) before a hard-fought success at Kempton off today's mark in January; solid efforts in defeat on his next three runs; absent since May but has gone well fresh in the past.

King's Code
Now rated too highly to bid for his hat-trick in the 9.5f Class 3 handicap on the card (4.35) and his stamina for this trip is still not fully established; he comes here having been in peak form though and a tactical affair at Lingfield 11 days ago didn't see him to best effect.

Haku
Ten-time winner over this trip on AW, including 6-8 over C&D; one of the defeats was when only fourth behind Paradias in this 12 months ago and this 6yo is 6lb higher this time around; on the plus side, he has won three times since, including a hard-fought Southwell win four weeks ago; should go well.

Brasil Power
Most of his racing has been over shorter trips but he is 2-5 at 1m2f+ and stepping up to 1m4f for the first time saw him record a personal best RPR when winning at Lingfield nine days ago; 6lb higher today (2lb wrong) but it is easy enough to envisage further progress at the distance.

Knightswood
Goes well fresh so a 200-day absence since his Pontefract win in June (1m4f, good) is not necessarily an issue; this is his first AW start since December 2022 and he's perhaps a shade high in the weights.

Aeolian
Lightly raced 3yo; made debut in July and has won two of her six starts, taking well to the AW with her ready Kempton success last month (1m3f); up 7lb but could well have more to offer on AW and this extra furlong should suit too.
