9st 1lb

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Michael Dods

7yo who hasn't been able to reproduce his very best form this season but he's dropped down the weights accordingly and there have been promising signs on his last few starts, finishing fifth of 17 over C&D (good to firm) in August and fourth of 14 at Ayr (1m, soft) last time; in the mix.

9st 13lb

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Michael Dods

Former winner at this meeting; operating a little below his really smart best so far this year but his handicap mark has edged down and his latest fifth came in a strong 17-runner handicap at the York Ebor meeting (good to firm; has won on soft); eased another 1lb; contender.

9st 11lb

J: David Egan

T: Michael Dods

Familiar face at York, including for three wins and five seconds, but he was only seventh (2022) and fifth (2023) in his two tilts at this race; not so good this season as in 2024 but he's also now down the weights, to his lowest mark since July 2023, so he needs a second look.

J: Paul Mulrennan

T: Ian Davison

Versatile as regards ground; has edged back down the weights this season and looks attractively handicapped; record in this contest reads 441, gamely making all off 2lb higher last year, and he's a solid contender in another International attempt.

Yet to make the frame this term; however, ran encouragingly at Royal Ascot most recently and has become attractively treated; defied a 2lb higher mark in major 7f handicap last July and can't be ruled out.
