stumbled start, soon midfield on inner, waiting for room over 3f out, ridden over 2f out, weakened over 1f out (jockey said gelding stumbled leaving the starting stalls)

Not a prolific winner, with his waiting tactics, and never involved when 7-1 for last year's 1m4f Duke of Edinburgh at this meeting; however, it would be unwise not to recall his fourth in the Ebor at York last August (1m6f, good to firm) off a 1lb higher mark and he was unsuited by the steady pace at York last time out (1m4f); could get competitive should this pan out favourably; stable won this in 2022.

Beaten a head in this race last year and fourth of 22 here in the Ebor in August; began 2026 with another solid effort, when second at Ripon; not a prolific winner with his waiting tactics but big each-way chance.

Smart handicapper who won at Haydock (1m4f, good) off 4lb lower last May and recorded several good efforts in defeat later in 2025; has gone well fresh before.

Acts on heavy; has a very solid record at Doncaster, albeit without winning (seventh in this race last year but not beaten far); scored over 1m4f at Haydock in May and career-best form over 1m6f/1m5f on last three outings, but he's not the easiest to win with given his waiting tactics.
