- Billy Loughnane / D M Loughnane

|
4/1 |
Ciotog
Four-time C&D winner (good, soft), all in the autumn off higher marks; may just be on the downgrade but the handicapper's been quick to ease off and Billy Loughnane is back up for the first time this year.

- Villalobos
- Alistair Rawlinson / S Hodgson

|
15/2 |
Villalobos
Front-runner who returns to turf 4lb higher than when last seen on it after a Polytrack win in the winter; 0-11 round here down the years and needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Lingfield a month ago.

- Lewis Edmunds / A Wintle

11/1 |
Redhot Whisper
Highly tried on occasion by Ben Brookhouse and regressed sharply last year prior to being sold for 5,000 in October; big prices and well held in four AW runs for this yard, which also saddles Havana Club; hard to latch on to unless there's been market support behind him.

- D C Costello / G Brown

80/1 |
Majestic Leo
String of poor efforts under both codes since picked up from Ralph Beckett; wind surgery in the winter didn't help improve things, likewise the first-time blinkers worn last time.
|
|
|
|
- Volendam
- Jack Doughty / A W Carroll
|
|
68
|
5/2 |
Volendam
Regressive maiden who's been turned over as favourite a couple of times on the AW of late, latterly looking to have no complaints at a very short price; claims again back on turf for the first time for her current yard but there can only be so many excuses.

- Nammos
- Charles Bishop / J L Flint
|

|
12/1 |
Nammos
Debut for a seventh different yard having been beaten at short prices three times for James Owen this year, latterly in a visor (off today); not convincing in a few runs over this trip.
|

|
- Purple Sky
- William Carson / Joe Ponting
|
|
71
|
25/1 |
Purple Sky
String of poor efforts since an Irish win over further last summer, finishing well behind Volendam on the AW last time; first-time headgear will need to make a big difference on this return to turf.

- Hawaiian King
- George Wood / M Madgwick
|
|
68
|
20/1 |
Hawaiian King
Regressive maiden (1m-1m4f) who's with his third yard already; has shown enough on the AW this year, however, to suggest he can play a part on today's turf debut, down another 3lb.
|
|
|
|
- Havana Club
- Finley Marsh / A Wintle
|
|
69
|
18/1 |
Havana Club
Couple of ordinary efforts on the AW since unseating in February but he returns to turf on a career-low mark, 1lb lower than when winning over C&D last spring; the hood returning could help and he ought to fare better.
|
|
|
|
- Baynoona
- Millie Wonnacott / Mrs S Gardner
|
|
67
|
15/2 |
Baynoona
C&D winner for Millie Wonnacott off a 3lb lower mark last autumn; heavy ground may have been behind a lesser effort here on her final start and she's one to consider on comeback.
|
|

- Happy Chandler
- Alec Voikhansky / M Blake
|
|
70
|
6/1 |
Happy Chandler
Maiden who had plenty of chances at a similar level last year; well held first time out in his three previous seasons and he is some way down the pecking order back from his latest break.

- American Rose
- William Cox / H J Evans

|

|
22/1 |
American Rose
Serial slow starter who's done most recent racing over 7f and looked to find this trip stretching her a couple of times; capable if getting away and finding the race setting up for her but she's been expensive to follow in 0-50 company latterly.
|

- Miss Moonshine
- Oliver Searle / B R Millman
|
|
66
|
50/1 |
Miss Moonshine
Has not run on turf since 2023 and this is the first time she's ever gone beyond 7f; typically inconsistent since since eight-month layoff and it could well be all or nothing again.

- Cherry Hill
- Rob Hornby / D J S Ffrench Davis

|
33/1 |
Cherry Hill
Seen only three times last year, running poorly on each, and fared no better on her comeback in January; underwent wind surgery since.
