7/1 |
I Play County
Absent and had wind surgery since winning a maiden hurdle at Southwell (2m, good to soft) ten months ago, taking overall record to 3-6; bred to be as effective back up in trip and looks open to further progress.

Cast's Tasha
Record of 3-19 includes a Ffos Las win during a light 2024-25 campaign; beaten only a whisker by the favourite at Leicester (2m4f, soft) on reappearance but this 9yo is now on a career-high mark.

Kajikia
Lightly raced 6yo; distant second when bidding for a Plumpton double last time but record suggests he may be best caught fresh; hence looks an interesting handicap debutant on return from 83-day break.

Activist
Record of 4-17 over hurdles, the most recent success over C&D (good to soft) last March in sole Fontwell start; respectable staying-on fourth over 2m at Chepstow last time; possibilities back in this scenario.

Northanger Abbey
Reasonably consistent in points and maiden hurdles, making the frame each time; folded tamely the latest occasion but may finish to better effect and show improvement now handicapping.

- Charlie Hammond / S Edmunds

9/1 |
Comanche Magic
Ex-Irish maiden who still has low mileage; last of six finishers at Southwell (2m4f) on stable/handicap debut but was prominent in the betting and is seemingly thought capable of better.

11/2 |
Kool Kid
Bumper scorer; spoiled his finishing effort by hanging but ran well on the figures at Plumpton (2m4f; handicap debut) most recently and the winner has franked the form by following up at Fontwell; major claims.

- Calshot Spit

16/1 |
Calshot Spit
Has gained both hurdles wins off 3lb lower in 2m1f events at Fontwell, latest when narrowly beating Bridge on reappearance (heavy); back up the weights and in distance, he's perhaps one to take on.

Hillsin
Contrasting performances since rejoining this stable, holding on narrowly in small field at Exeter (2m2f) then soundly beaten at Hereford; not the percentage call in this competitive affair.

- Benjamin Macey / L Horsfall

Lexie's Moon
Has become inconsistent but is competitively weighted on best form, such as defying a 2lb higher mark at Stratford (heavy) in October 2024; admittedly still seeking first win beyond 2m.

- Bridge
- Caoilin Quinn / G & J Moore

11/2 |
Bridge
Lost out only narrowly in a tight finish with Calshot Spit on return from lengthy layoff, taking Fontwell record (2m1f) to 122 and again shaping as if this longer trip is worth exploring; solid claims.

16/1 |
Miss Maxfort
2m winner in Ireland; couple of third-place finishes over same trip for new stable; appears to be in reasonably good form but doesn't shape as if she's crying out for this step back up in distance.

Motazzen
Hurdles record is 3-16; has form figures of 112B at Fontwell, brought down three out when returned to this venue last time (2m3f; race won by Bradman); solid chance, assuming he gets better luck.

- Westlain
- Lorcan Williams / Jack Jones

|
14/1 |
Westlain
Juvenile hurdler who registered a 66-1 success at Fontwell (2m1f) with hood applied and faced a stiffer assignment at Cheltenham since; the return to this course and drop back in grade are positives.

- Bradman
- James Best / K Bishop

|
14/1 |
Bradman
Opened his hurdles account in C&D contest (good to soft) on Boxing Day but was rather fortuitous, with three of his four rivals coming to grief three out; no certainty to follow up in this deeper field.
