8st 9lb

J: Luke Morris

T: David Simcock

Creditable second at Southwell (1m4f) in September but has failed to repeat the form in two outings over the same C&D since; defied a 2lb higher mark at Kempton in 2024 and receives weight all round in this field, so has possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear.

J: Luke Morris

T: David Simcock

Won maiden on Tapeta elsewhere; two 1m4f wins in 2024, on turf and Polytrack, and has run some fair races in 2025; might come on for his latest run after a short break so not dismissed despite this looking competitive.

J: Luke Morris

T: David Simcock

Won two handicaps in 2024 and he has run some good races in defeat this year, including when second of 11 over C&D 68 days ago; 1lb higher today but can remain competitive.

J: Rossa Ryan

T: David Simcock

Three-time winner with form at this track; not far off his best RPR when second in a small field at Ascot (1m4f) and a steady pace was no good for his patient tactics when behind Great Bedwyn and Mrs Twig at Kempton two weeks ago; fair shout should this pan out more favourably.

Back in better form the last twice, runner-up at Ascot latest occasion; record of 2-6 on AW features a success (off just 1lb lower) in this contest 12 months ago; respected.
