|
12/1 |
Winston's Warrior
Best form (and both wins) on the AW; bled from nose back on turf when only eighth of 11 at Nottingham two months ago; needs to bounce back after a break.
|
|
|
|
- Port Road
- Christian Howarth / S Dow
|
|
83
|
40/1 |
Port Road
All three wins on AW but below par at Kempton last time; fifth of ten at Epsom on sole turf outing last spring; bit to prove back on grass.
|

|
|
- Havana Blue
- Ryan Sexton / Miss J A Camacho
|
|
85
|
7/1 |
Havana Blue
All three wins at around 7f on good or good to firm ground; possibly unsuited by 1m on soft at Goodwood last time; 7lb below last winning mark and could be dangerous under optimum conditions.

- Cancan In The Rain
- Jake Dickson / Gihan Arnolda

3/1 |
Cancan In The Rain
Won two from five last season and made an encouraging reappearance/stable debut when fourth of nine at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) three weeks ago; stepping back down to 7f looks a positive move and the booking of promising claimer Jake Dickson is a plus; high on the list.

- L Morris / M Pattinson

40/1 |
Daring Legend
Won over this trip at Newmarket last autumn for Mick Appleby but three turf runs for current yard have been well below par; bit to prove.
|

- Enola Grey
- S H James / G Tutty
|
|
86
|
11/1 |
Enola Grey
Has a better strike-rate on AW than turf but she wasn't disgraced after a break at Carlisle (1m, good to firm; 40-1) 17 days ago; may come on for that outing and she's not ruled out.
|

- Documenting
- J Mitchell / K Frost

|
17/2 |
Documenting
Admirable teenager with 12 wins to his name, including one over C&D; best recent effort when second of 12 at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last month; should be on the premises again.

- Arantes Nascimento
- Kieren Fox / M J Attwater

|
10/1 |
Arantes Nascimento
Arrives in top form after a 7f win at Kempton and two second places over 6f; hard to knock and should be thereabouts.
|

|
|
- North View
- Gina Mangan / S C Williams
|
|
82
|
16/1 |
North View
7f winner on the AW early in the year but seems to have lost his form and finished last at Yarmouth two weeks ago; fair bit to prove.
|
|
|
|
- Red Hat Eagle
- Cieren Fallon / W J Knight
|
|
87
|
12/1 |
Red Hat Eagle
On an advancing losing run but he's well handicapped and bubbling under; too free (not for the first time) for a 7lb claimer last time and far from disgraced to finish fourth of eight at Yarmouth; interesting with Cieren Fallon taking over.
|

- Be Frank
- D Egan / Ian Williams

|
15/2 |
Be Frank
Just one win since the first half of 2023; might have needed the run when sixth of 11 at Chester (16-1) on reappearance but he'll have to have come on a good deal to make an impact here.

- Benoit D L Sayette / J Parr

50/1 |
Beauty By My Side
Returned to form in first-time cheekpieces when winning at Chelmsford last October; unplaced all four starts since and now returns from five months off.
|

- Luansobe
- Kaiya Fraser / C Fellowes
|
|
82
|
11/1 |
Luansobe
40-1 winner of novice at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) on reappearance; down the field on handicap debut at York four weeks later (subsequently gelded); has to prove he's as effective on turf as the AW but yard won this with a lightly raced 3yo in 2024.

- Lunario
- George Wood / L A Dace

Lunario
Dual winner from the front last summer but has shown very little this season; tumbling in the weights but carries clear risks.
|

- Sponsor
- David Probert / B J Meehan

22/1 |
Sponsor
Has gone the wrong way since making the frame in novices at Windsor (1m) and Newbury (7f) in the spring; may come good at some point but the handicapper is dropping him only gradually.
|
|
|
|
- Ararat
- Taylor Fisher / R Cook & J Bridger
|
|
83
|
28/1 |
Ararat
8lb below his last winning mark and ran respectably when third at Newbury 18 days ago, finishing one place behind Documenting; more appealing than some.
|
|
|

- Oceti
- S M Levey / R Hannon

|
16/1 |
Oceti
Unplaced all four starts but he shaped a bit better than the bare result when sixth of ten on handicap debut at Windsor (6f, good to soft; stayed on after being short of room) five weeks ago; hard to pin down and may have untapped potential.
|
|

- Northcliff
- Callum Rodriguez / R Burdon

|
11/2 |
Northcliff
Most recent win came over this trip at Chepstow in May on final run for Thomas Faulkner; not disgraced over 6f twice since and looks ready for a return to 7f; gets that here and should be thereabouts.
