WILTSHIRE LAD was one of the last winners to be trained by Sir Michael Stoute when he landed a nursery at Southwell in October. That was an encouraging performance from the son of Wootton Bassett, who appeals strongly returning off 5lb higher with his new yard in excellent form. The runner-up from that Southwell race also filled the same position behind Invited when he scored at Kempton last month. George Boughey's gelding is highly respected back on turf off 6lb higher. Zowal and Hot Dancer complete the shortlist.

Andrew Balding is in flying form and his new recruit WILTSHIRE LAD gets the vote ahead of Hot Dancer and Invited.

GWEEDORE bounced back to form when second over C&D last weekend and the veteran merits plenty of respect off the same mark here. That said, Alzahir arrives on the back of two victories in recent weeks and could give the selection plenty to think about. Rockymountainway is another with strong form claims and edges out Benacre to be best of the rest.

A warm contest can go to course specialist GWEEDORE who showed he still has fire in his belly when second here last weekend.

There isn't much to choose between AMERICAN AFFAIR and Jer Batt on bare form and while the latter surely looks capable of paying his way at this level, the former has a better record when fresh and narrowly shades the vote. A winner over C&D on his seasonal debut 12 months ago, Jim Goldie's five-year-old did nothing but progress in 2024 and resumes with the potential to be a stable star in similar handicaps for his highly capable yard. Cover Up, Jm Jungle and Tatterstall are also notable options.

Jer Batt is still capable of better but COVER UP (nap) has been running well in Dubai and this could set up perfectly for him.

Danny Tudhope has been aboard the last two winners of this contest, including Wise Eagle, who he gets back aboard today. Adam Nicol's charge merits the utmost respect despite being 5lb higher this time around, but the vote goes to ALIGN THE STARS. A progressive handicapper last season before coming up short in a couple of Group contests, he returned with a creditable third in the Further Flight at Nottingham recently and is sure to mount another stern challenge with that outing under his belt. Wild Waves was by no means discredited in the St Leger when last seen and he looks a real player back in a handicap, especially with his yard in flying form.

Wild Waves was last seen when running with credit in the St Leger but ALIGN THE STARS made a bright reappearance ten days ago.

Cases can be made for all of these so only a tentative vote can go to AMALFINA. Outpaced over the mile at Doncaster on her debut in October, the daughter of Nathaniel will relish a step up in trip and she appeals as the type to progress over middle distances this term. Canavan might be a longer term prospect, but he showed clear promise last season and is another likely to benefit from a considerable rise in distance, while Ivatt appeals most of the remainder.

Caspi Star could be dangerous if getting an easy lead, but the one with the most potential is probably Charlie Fellowes' IVATT.

EPIDAVROS put in a promising display when fifth on her seasonal debut at Southwell a couple of weeks ago and, with the benefit of that outing, Katie Scott's filly could be hard to stop here. Reach struggled on her final couple of starts last year but should not be underestimated on her return to action, while similar comments apply to Alessia Fernanda.

Reach (second choice) and Zapphire should go well if fully primed but the percentage call is EPIDAVROS.

ZARZYNI was arguably an unlucky loser when a close third over C&D last Sunday as he met with plenty of trouble in running. With a clear passage here, the veteran could provide his supporters with some valuable compensation. However, Knicks also did not get the clearest of runs when narrowly ahead in second that day and is another to consider. Only Spoofing took the spoils on that occasion but a 4lb penalty could leave him vulnerable.

Only Spoofing is solid despite his penalty but Balon d'Or and OUR ABSENT FRIENDS are interesting rivals.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses.
