J: Luke Catton

T: Hugo Palmer

Six-time AW winner but he's 0-11 on turf and has struggled at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) and Hamilton (1m5f, good) in last two runs; now drops back into a Class 4 event but he has plenty to prove back at this trip.

J: Jason Hart

Six wins from his 24 AW starts, the latest in February, but 0-9 on turf and he was last seen in this sphere in 2023; fit from AW action (well beaten in hot race last time) but other options seem more likely.

Six wins from his 23 AW starts, the latest at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in February; has continued in good form when fourth at Lingfield and Kempton on last two starts, but he may again be vulnerable today.

Returned after almost two years off with a game win over 1m4f at Wolverhampton (12-1) last month; held in fourth in his follow-up bid at Lingfield but he wasn't beaten far and that another good effort in a valuable handicap; has raced prominently in his last two runs and he should go well again on this drop back in grade.
