Comment: Off the mark in 6f classified at Thirsk (good to firm) in August and had two close calls on AW when cheekpieces first fitted in the autumn; can find another race judged on recent Thirsk run (6f, good) when, after seeing off her group, she was run down late; up 2lb and in deeper here but respected.

Comment: Well held on return at Leicester but you can set your clock by him over C&D, as he's won and been placed in all eight attempts, on ground ranging from good to firm to heavy; has eased a few pounds and solid to go well.

Comment: Had the odd excuse in 2024 but she was suited by the drop to 6f when winning at Salisbury (soft) last May and handled good ground perfectly well when coming from off the pace into second at Brighton in September; looked in good heart when making a successful comeback on Southwell AW (6f) this month; 4lb higher mark within reach if in the same form again.

Comment: AW maiden and lightly raced on turf (1-7; 6f novice) but well treated if recapturing a close second of ten at Goodwood (7f, good) last June and hopefully will get more early cover from this draw than at Kempton in March when he pulled hard early; possibilities.

Comment: Climbed the ranks on the AW last year, winning five times over 1m-1m2f; seems to have reached his ceiling this winter and raced too freely when upped to this trip on penultimate start, before his last of ten on turf debut (1m4f, good to firm) on latest, so he's best watched for now.

Comment: 50-1 second at Southwell (7f, AW) in October on debut, which she failed to match on her two subsequent starts; hooded on first two; needs an overall step forward on this handicap/seasonal debut.

Comment: Big step forward when third in a maiden at Newcastle (7f, AW) last September, form which she has failed to reproduce in any of her three starts since; two of those were handicaps, including her sole run on turf.

7/2

Comment: Usually slowly away; co-second favourite for reappearance over 1m here (good) three weeks ago and he got off the mark at tenth attempt, leading over 2f out for a clearcut win in second-time cheekpieces; back up 5lb and more to prove at 1m2f but may have turned over something of a new leaf.

Comment: Front-runner who won twice over 1m2f on good to firm last summer when trained by Georgina Nicholls; back near his best when second of eight over C&D (favourite) 17 days ago, so he helps make this race look competitive.

17/2

Comment: 1m3f at Carlisle in July 2023 saw his only win from 15 races; lightly raced since but not far away at Doncaster (1m2f) or Beverley (1m4f) on last two outings, which brings him into each-way calculations.

Comment: He's had more joy on AW, with sole turf win in an amateurs' race at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last July; 3lb lower today and he had an AW win last month, followed by a respectable effort, so he's not ruled out.
