17/2 |
Roadshow
Sedgefield winner in September under Freddie Keighley; that form has some substance but he failed to build on it in a higher grade next time; ran well enough on his return at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) in first-time cheekpieces last month and blinkers are now tried, but he remains on a tough mark.

6/1 |
Blue Universe
Still a maiden over hurdles after 13 starts but looked set to put that right at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in April, only to fall at the last when mounting his challenge, after a similar break to today's; up 2lb but Paddy Hanlon retains the ride and this 6yo is worth considering.

10/3 |
Little Ledgend
0-8 over hurdles but made the frame on all three starts since switched to handicaps, most recently at Market Rasen (extended 2m5f; just in front of Estacas) in June with a tongue-tie added; looked hard work there and cheekpieces are now tried, but Sean Bowen returns and he's a leading contender.

25/1 |
Achille Des Rocs
Dual hurdle winner in late 2024 but pulled up on both starts (over fences/hurdles) since an absence; cheekpieces (worn on last three starts) are removed; others make more obvious appeal.

5/1 |
Estacas
Couldn't hold on when attempting to make all at Market Rasen (extended 2m5f, good) in June but that was still a solid effort, only narrowly denied second by Little Ledgend late on; should go well again, with Luke Scott able to claim 3lb this time.

18/1 |
Midnight Jewel
Gained a tenth career success when scoring over fences at Fontwell in October off a 13lb higher mark, but ended the year with two pulled-up efforts; returns from a 277-day break with something to prove back over hurdles, but he's bounced back from quiet spells before.

4/1 |
The Grayster
Encouraging hurdle debut when 12l second at Doncaster (2m, good to soft) in November and ran to a similar level when fifth at Haydock the following month before pulling up in January; has since undergone wind surgery and his pedigree suggests this longer trip will suit on handicap/stable debut for Dan Skelton; interesting contender.

12/1 |
Bashful Boy
On a long losing sequence but returned to some form when back from a break and finishing a 12l third of five over C&D 12 days ago, ridden by Rian Corcoran; respected off 4lb lower.

- Pivotal Days
- Ellis Collier / S Hosie

|
33/1 |
Pivotal Days
Hasn't beaten a rival on the Flat this year since switching stables and has been well held in three hurdle starts, although he wasn't beaten far when sixth of nine here (2m) in May; moves up in trip for handicap hurdle debut with something to prove.

22/1 |
The Padster
Back on track to some extent when runner-up at Hereford (2m3f) in first-time cheekpieces, which are retained, albeit beaten 21l; more is needed again.

- Medina Blue
- Joe Anderson / G Harris

|
5/1 |
Medina Blue
Twice runner-up in Irish points but has only hinted at ability in three novice/maiden hurdles (2m-2m1f) for this stable; needs to take a marked step forward on this switch to handicaps but the move up in trip should suit.

Quick Of The Night
Built on June's reappearance when keeping on for third over 2m here 12 days ago, in a race she had won in 2024 and 2025; yet to prove she needs this far but is on a good mark and could figure if staying the trip.

Gone In Sixty
1-39 but was runner-up at Southwell (2m4f, good) in June and ran well for a long way from the front at Market Rasen last month before fading into fourth; enters calculations on the strength of his earlier effort.
