1	10 1st (10) (8/1 +20%) Star Of Guiting		8 8/1(+20%)																															(10) Star Of Guiting 8/1, Improved on recent form when landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 2m and a consistent performer under similar conditions. Won over C&D on New Year's Day; has to race off 10lb higher today but he's not discounted.
2	7 2nd (7) (4/1 -14%) Afadil		4 4/1(-14%)																															(7) Afadil 4/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; ran to form, did plenty early when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m, suited by GS or G; running back into form and mark fair. A win and 1l second from last two runnings of this race; could play another leading role.
3	5 3rd (5) (6/1 +40%) Wise Eagle		6 6/1(+40%)																															(5) Wise Eagle 6/1, Just about back to form on the Flat when beaten 9 1/2l in a handicap at Newcastle last time. Effective from 2m to 2m3f and a useful dual-purpose performer who can have a say back over hurdles. The drop back in trip could help; remains plenty of mileage in mark judged on Flat ability.
4	2 4th (2) (4/1 -20%) Williethebuilder		4 4/1(-20%)																															(2) Williethebuilder 4/1, Travelled, did it cosily, improved at favoured venue landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Kempton last time; effective 2m, may not get further,, likes a sound surface; can go well again. Career-best form when winning at Kempton on last two starts; tackles slower ground today.
5th	6 5th (6) (28/1 -100%) Saligo Bay		28 28/1(-100%)																															(6) Saligo Bay 28/1, Made too much use of when 11th, beaten 27l off 125 last time, and is 1lb lower here. Effective at 2m and generally consistent, though the handicapper may now have caught up. Came up well short at Windsor in bid for a four-timer but ground may have been too testing.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -50%) City Of Diamonds		18 18/1(-50%)																															(8) City Of Diamonds 18/1, The yard has won 2 of the last 9 runnings of this race. Scored by 5l off a 7lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. Effective at 2m, with his progress checked on his latest run. Convincing C&D win in November and messed around in the straight over C&D subsequently.
7th	3 7th (3) (18/1 -50%) Gibbs Island		18 18/1(-50%)																															(3) Gibbs Island 18/1, Again below form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Kelso last time. The trainer is in form, he returns off a short break, remains effective at 2m, but is still 4lb above his last winning mark. Impressed in 4yo h'cap at Chepstow on reappearance but down the field on both runs since.
8th	1 8th (1) (9/1 +25%) Kateira		9 9/1(+25%)																															(1) Kateira 9/1, Landed a William Hill Handicap Hurdle by 2l off a 9lb lower mark at Aintree in April. Effective from 2m to 3m, generally consistent, and the drop back in trip may suit on her return to handicap company. Suspicion she's on a tough mark but this classy mare is not ruled out.
9th	9 9th (9) (16/1 +0%) Static		16 16/1(+0%)																															(9) Static 16/1, The yard has won 2 of the last 9 runnings of this race. Ran to form when finishing third, beaten 9 1/4l, in a handicap hurdle at Kelso on his most recent run. Returns off a short break and can go well again. 5yo who arrives in reasonably good heart but is 2lb wrong and others are preferred.
4	4 |U| (4) (7/2 +30%) Welsh Charger		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(4) Welsh Charger 7/2, Won this race last year and was outpaced when comfortably held in the Festive Handicap Hurdle at Ascot last time, looking in need of a stiffer test. Effective from 2m to 2m4f and just 1lb higher than last year. 2-2 here and just 1lb higher than when winning this last year; has to be of interest.

WELSH CHARGER won this contest 12 months ago from a 1lb lower mark and was a respectable fifth in the Scottish Champion Hurdle on his next outing. The eight-year-old's fourth in the Greatwood in November is also decent form and he can bounce back from an underwhelming effort at Ascot last time. Afadil chased that rival home last year and won the 2024 renewal, so he has to be noted. Others to consider are Williethebuilder and Kateira.

Having won in good style over C&D in November on his handicap debut, CITY OF DIAMONDS had an excuse here last time and gets the nod.

Effective at 2m-2m4f and acts on GS and G. Drops in trip on deep ground. Best to forgive latest effort; may still have further progress in him; handicap debut.
2	6 2nd (6) (22/1 -38%) Classic Maestro		22 22/1(-38%)																															(6) Classic Maestro 22/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Haydock last time; enjoys making it; effective 2m, suited by plenty of cut; stiff mark. Won in first-time cheekpieces last February; below that form since.
3	9 3rd (9) (7/1 +7%) Dr T J Eckleburg		7 7/1(+7%)																															(9) Dr T J Eckleburg 7/1, Returned to form in first time cheekpieces benefitting from pace collapse 5l third in a handicap chase at Windsor most recent run; usually held up; suited by 2m with cut; can go well. Resurgent with cheekpieces fitted last time; close second in this contest 12 months ago.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 +50%) Denemethy		10 10/1(+50%)																															(8) Denemethy 10/1, Returned to form when beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Exeter last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f with cut. Looks to have found his level and can go well. Consistent but gets virtually no help from the assessor.
5th	1 5th (1) (16/1 +20%) Haddex Des Obeaux		16 16/1(+20%)																															(1) Haddex Des Obeaux 16/1, Made too much use of when fourth, beaten 8 1/2l, in a handicap chase at Wetherby latest. Enjoys making it and is effective at 2m. Not the horse he was, but his mark looks competitive now. Two runs since returning from long layoff suggest he's not the force of old.
6th	11 6th (11) (20/1 +20%) Hypotenus		20 20/1(+20%)																															(11) Hypotenus 20/1, Made too much use of when a bit below form at Taunton latest. Effective at 2m, but the ground is a concern here. Still in form but goes into deeper waters upped two grades.
7th	2 7th (2) (6/1 +0%) Gunsight Ridge		6 6/1(+0%)																															(2) Gunsight Ridge 6/1, Won this last year; never jumped or travelled but plugged on when fourth beaten 19l in a handicap chase at Cheltenham latest; trainer in form; effective 2m-2m4f, likes plenty of cut; can race lazily but on same mark as 12 months ago. Form figures of 1321 at Sandown, most recently winning this race last year; possibilities.
7	7 |F| (7) (11/2 +21%) Kotmask		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(7) Kotmask 11/2, Back below last winning mark, returned to form in first-time blinkers at favoured venue when second beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap chase here latest; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on S and G; can go well. Resurgent in first-time blinkers over C&D most recently; still 1lb below last winning mark.
3	3 |U| (3) (22/1 -83%) Martator		22 22/1(-83%)																															(3) Martator 22/1, Made mistakes and was never threatened when finishing down the field in the December Gold Cup Handicap Chase at Cheltenham most recently. Effective at 2m-2m4f and suited by good ground. Back on a workable mark but has been inconsistent of late. On last winning mark, so holds a fighting chance provided he's in top form.
5	5 |PU| (5) (7/2 +22%) Escapeandevade		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(5) Escapeandevade 7/2, Ran to form when doing plenty early and setting it up for the closer when second, beaten 1 1/4l, off 130 last time. Raised 3lb here. Effective at 2m and acts with cut. Revised mark will demand more. Record of 2212 this term for new yard; solid contender in current form.
10	10 |PU| (10) (9/1 +18%) Rath Gaul Hill		9 9/1(+18%)																															(10) Rath Gaul Hill 9/1, Travelled, flattened out, bit below form 9 1/2l third in a handicap chase at Newbury most recent run; effective 2m, acts on S and GS; running into form this term, good Newbury record. Capable of being involved but has a question mark over the course.

Jax Junior has to be respected on his handicap debut following a wind operation since his last appearance. That said, a chance can be taken on GUNSIGHT RIDGE, who has not been at his best of late but that means that he arrives here on the same mark as when successful in this contest 12 months ago. The consistent Escapeandevade edges out Dr T J Eckleburg and Kotmask to be best of the rest.

With the blinkers retained, KOTMASK (nap) may well build on his resurgent C&D effort and take advantage of a workable mark.

1	4 1st (4) (16/1 -167%) Kaaress		16 16/1(-167%)																															(4) Kaaress 16/1, Took a step back in the right direction when fourth, beaten 3l, in a classified race here last time. Visor is worn for the first time, but others appeal more. On lengthy losing run but she's bubbling under, fourth over C&D last time; not discounted.
2	8 2nd (8) (11/2 +73%) Newfire		5.5 11/2(+73%)																															(8) Newfire 11/2, Remains below her best after being beaten 4 1/4l last time. Effective over 8-10f, but there has been no sign of a revival yet. Well treated on old form and not disgraced under inexperienced rider latest; possibilities.
3	6 3rd (6) (16/1 0%) Marion's Boy		16 16/1(0%)																															(6) Marion's Boy 16/1, Made late gains after a slow start and did well considering when fourth, beaten 3l, here last time. Usually held up and interesting to see if he can build on that run. Thrown in on best form but slowly away of late; chances hinge on breaking on terms.
4	3 4th (3) (5/2 +17%) Dubai Harbour		2.5 5/2(+17%)																															(3) Dubai Harbour 5/2, Ran to form 3 1/4l third in a handicap here most recent run; effective 8-12f, best form largely on AW; can go well again down into a classified. 3rd to Haveagobeau over C&D on latest; consistent & should be in the thick of things again.
5th	7 5th (7) (5/2 +29%) Myna		2.5 5/2(+29%)																															(7) Myna 5/2, Improved, good attitude when winning a classified race here by a neck last time; top course trainer; suited by 10f, acts on any; chance if building on latest. Breakthrough win over C&D ten days ago, rallying; commands major respect again.
6th	1 6th (1) (5/2 -43%) Haveagobeau		2.5 5/2(-43%)																															(1) Haveagobeau 5/2, Travelled, ran to form when second beaten a neck in a classified race here latest; effective 8-10f, probably acts on any; unexposed at 10f, has run into form. Arrives in top form with C&D win and neck second to Myna on last two runs; leading claims.
7th	5 7th (5) (20/1 +0%) Laurentia		20 20/1(+0%)																															(5) Laurentia 20/1, Never competitive from off the pace when beaten 5l here last time. Blinkers are fitted for the first time, but she remains on a long losing run. Finished behind several of these in a first-time visor last time; now tries blinkers.
8th	2 8th (2) (150/1 -500%) Asense		150 150/1(-500%)																															(2) Asense 150/1, Was a bit below form and did not stay when well beaten last time. Off a long absence; effective over 10-12f on the all-weather, with a drop in trip and grade a plus but still up against it. All three wins over further and now returns for new stable after lengthy absence.

MYNA beat Haveagobeau by a neck over track and trip recently and that might be the key piece of form to focus on. If Tony Carroll's charge can back that performance up, he will prove a tough nut to crack. Dubai Harbour finished third behind the selection over C&D latest and may get closer on these revised terms. Five-time C&D winner Marion's Boy is another to note.

The joker in the pack could be NEWFIRE who showed signs of a resurgence last time and is now partnered by Rossa Ryan.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +20%) Jpr One		4 4/1(+20%)																															(1) Jpr One 4/1, Travelled, just denied when beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Cheltenham last time; effective 2m, suited by sound surface; back in form of late and has long looked in need of this step back up in trip. Close second at Cheltenham last month and major player if seeing out this longer trip.
2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 -14%) Tommy's Oscar		8 8/1(-14%)																															(3) Tommy's Oscar 8/1, Poorly placed and ridden to see out the trip when fourth, beaten 6l, in a handicap chase here last time. Effective at 2m but is struggling for his best form this term despite his mark continuing to slip. Looked like he might have a big part to play over C&D last time only to make bad mistake.
3	6 3rd (6) (13/2 -8%) Traprain Law		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(6) Traprain Law 13/2, Ran to form when landing the Castleford Handicap Chase by 3l off a 4lb lower mark at Wetherby last time. Enjoys making it and is effective around 2m, so should go well again. Won at Wetherby last month and remains 3lb lower than when third in this last year.
4	8 4th (8) (33/1 0%) Bleu D'enfer		33 33/1(0%)																															(8) Bleu D'enfer 33/1, Below form when well beaten in a handicap chase here last time. Effective over 2m–2m4f, his mark is slipping but he has been struggling to find his form this term. Appeared to return to form over C&D latest (mistake three out) but he's 7lb wrong today.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 -167%) Teddy Blue		12 12/1(-167%)																															(5) Teddy Blue 12/1, Below form off revised mark when seventh at Ascot latest; off a short-break; suited by 2m on a sound surface; not straightforward and 3lb above last win mark. Won on reappearance at Ascot but below par there since; good ground seems preferable.
6th	4 6th (4) (10/3 +33%) The Kalooki Kid		3.333333 10/3(+33%)																															(4) The Kalooki Kid 10/3, Won this race last year but did not find much after briefly threatening when beaten 6l in a handicap chase here last time. Effective over 2m–2m4f on a sound surface and looks nicely treated if bouncing back. Only fifth over C&D last time but could build on that and he won this 12 months ago.
7th	7 7th (7) (22/1 -57%) Moon D'orange		22 22/1(-57%)																															(7) Moon D'orange 22/1, Ran to form but was comfortably held in the Betfair Exchange Handicap Chase at Cheltenham last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time and he is effective at 2m4f on a sound surface, although his mark probably looks stiff enough. Not disgraced at Cheltenham on last two starts and perhaps blinkers will give him a lift.
8th	2 8th (2) (10/3 +5%) Insurrection		3.333333 10/3(+5%)																															(2) Insurrection 10/3, Travelled well but flattened out after a bad error back from a break, then returned to form when beaten 3l off this mark here last time. Best around 2m4f on a sound surface and 5lb above his last winning mark, but should go well. He's run really well on both visits here, including last time, and is in with a big chance.

INSURRECTION displayed plenty of promise when filling third place over C&D on his seasonal return at the beginning of the month. With the benefit of that run under his belt, the nine-year-old could be hard to beat on this occasion, especially having won at this meeting 12 months ago. JPR One has been running well in defeat of late but a 3lb rise for his latest second does not help his chances. Tommy's Oscar edges out Traprain Law and Teddy Blue to be best of the rest.

Class act JPR ONE is taken to defy topweight. Insurrection (second choice) and Tommy's Oscar both like it here.

Enjoys making it, is best around 2m4f, acts on soft and good ground, and is well worth this step up in grade. Better than ever at Cheltenham last time, taking chase record to 2-2; possibilities.
2	4 2nd (4) (2/1 +11%) Kala Conti		2 2/1(+11%)																															(4) Kala Conti 2/1, Did it cosily, improved from debut, fitness told when winning Order Of St George Mares Novice Chase (Grade 2) at Cork by 16l last time; effective 2m-2m4fm, acts on any ground; classy mare progressing over fences who has been aimed at this. Very useful mare who is 2-2 over fences and holds a leading chance at the weights.
3	2 3rd (2) (14/1 +30%) Miami Magic		14 14/1(+30%)																															(2) Miami Magic 14/1, Improved up in trip under a positive ride, jumping much better when winning a novice chase at Cheltenham by 4l last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f and best on a sound surface, but ground is a major worry here. Needs to build on his Cheltenham win; has the worst chance on bare ratings.

KITZBUHEL created a very big impression when winning well in the Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day and Willie Mullins' gelding is hard to oppose on the back of that performance. The main danger looks to be Kala Conti, who has won both of her starts over fences easily and receives a useful 7lb allowance. However, neither of Miami Magic or Sixmilebridge should be discounted but the latter is arguably the pick of that pair.

In a very interesting clash, KALA CONTI is first choice ahead of Sixmilebridge then Kitzbuhel.

Ready win in this race last year; had excuses at Southwell last time; one to consider.
6th	1 6th (1) (50/1 -25%) Accrual		50 50/1(-25%)																															(1) Accrual 50/1, Improved off a new high mark when second, beaten a short-head, in a handicap here last time. Enjoys making it and is effective at 5/6f. Has plenty to find at these weights having been upped in grade. Progressive handicapper but he is into deep waters today and needs a good step forward.
7th	8 7th (8) (66/1 -500%) Golden Sickle		66 66/1(-500%)																															(8) Golden Sickle 66/1, Ran right up to best when second beaten just a head in the Grade 1 Tab Computaform Sprint at Turffontein latest; effective at 5/6f on a sound surface; high-class sprinter in South Africa, tried in a hood on this stable debut; likely has a leading chance. Smart 5f form in South Africa; hooded for stable/British debut; tricky to assess.

Ryan Moore keeps the ride on Completely Random after his impressive victory in a handicap over C&D earlier in the month and he is well worth his place at this level. However, a chance can be taken on COOL HOOF LUKE. The son of Advertise was last seen winning the Gimcrack at York in 2024 and the unexposed four-year-old makes plenty of appeal on his return from a long absence for the in-form Andrew Balding team. Last year's winner Marshman can't be ruled out either.

He hasn't been seen since but the form of COOL HOOF LUKE's Gimcrack win reads well and he could be worth chancing on his reappearance.

3	5 3rd (5) (17/2 -89%) Sleedagh		8.5 17/2(-89%)																															(5) Sleedagh 17/2, Bit below best when dropped in trip, finishing second beaten 12l in a maiden hurdle at Ayr latest. Effective over 2m4f-3m and acts on soft and good to soft. Return to this trip looks a plus. Runner-up on all three hurdle starts and today's step back up in trip looks a firm plus.
4	3 4th (3) (16/1 -60%) Out Of The Woods		16 16/1(-60%)																															(3) Out Of The Woods 16/1, Did plenty early up in trip when running to form but well beaten in a novice hurdle at Newcastle latest. In good form prior and off a short break; effective at 2m-2m4f. Step up in trip may help. Bumper/maiden hurdle winner; held at Newcastle last time but should be capable of better.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 -8%) Lewisham Grove		7 7/1(-8%)																															(2) Lewisham Grove 7/1, Improved when getting off the mark with plenty to spare in a maiden hurdle at Newcastle, winning by 2 1/4l last time. Effective up to 2m4f and acts on good to soft, but needs more upped in trip. Off the mark over hurdles at the fifth attempt at Newcastle and could have more to offer.

ABSOLUTELY DOYEN will attract obvious support given his connections and progressive profile. He has to concede weight all round here but has won his last four starts and might not be done improving yet. Getting 8lb from the selection, Sleedagh must come into calculations and a solid chance can also be given to Lewisham Grove, who won well at Newcastle.

The one to beat is ABSOLUTELY DOYEN, who made it 4-4 for Paul Nicholls when winning a handicap at Wincanton on Boxing Day.

Effective over 2m4f-3m on any ground, loves Sandown, and a step back up in trip should suit. Two big C&D runs on heavy last winter; short-headed latest start despite just 2m4f on good.
2	1 2nd (1) (14/1 -17%) Santos Blue		14 14/1(-17%)																															(1) Santos Blue 14/1, Had too much to do when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow last time. Effective over 2m4f-3m on soft and good ground; progressive last term but needs to get back on track. Well beaten this term on both runs for new yard; needs a career best to win this.

Effective over 3m+ on any ground and generally consistent. Two good places before he fell early on penultimate start and was below form on latest.
5th	11 5th (11) (7/1 +65%) Sole Solution		7 7/1(+65%)																															(11) Sole Solution 7/1, Never travelling when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time; effective around 2m4f on heavy and soft ground but needs to bounce back. Muted performances last two starts and a big revival is needed in the first-time headgear.

9	9 |PU| (9) (9/1 +36%) Party Vibes		9 9/1(+36%)																															(9) Party Vibes 9/1, Outpaced before rallying gamely when back to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb higher mark at Cheltenham last time. Enjoys making it but stamina to prove back hurdling. Back in top form for a chase win last time but unraced beyond an extended 2m4f under rules.
3	3 |PU| (3) (9/1 -20%) Titan Discovery		9 9/1(-20%)																															(3) Titan Discovery 9/1, Improved down in grade when landing a handicap hurdle by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Cheltenham last time. Effective over 2m4f-3m on soft and good ground but possibly now on a stiff mark. Up 5lb but respected after he battled on well to win at Cheltenham (3m) in December.

Effective around 2m4f-3m on soft and good ground but needs more at this level. Not disgraced in fifth when cheekpieces were enlisted at Windsor on last two starts.
2	2 |PU| (2) (15/2 +17%) Red Dirt Road		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(2) Red Dirt Road 15/2, Won this race last year but pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter on latest start. Returning from a long layoff; enjoys making it and is effective over 2m4f-2m7f with cut. Made all to win this race by 8l on heavy last year; pulled up last March when last seen.
7	7 |PU| (7) (18/1 -29%) Gabbys Cross		18 18/1(-29%)																															(7) Gabbys Cross 18/1, Outpaced but flew home and had too much to do when beaten 2l off a 4lb higher mark here last time. Effective over 2m4f-3m on any ground and of interest back hurdling. Close over fences here (3m) latest start was best form for a long time; no win since 2022.

After being outpaced before the last, Henri The Second did well to stay on strongly to just be touched off over 2m4f here last time and he will appreciate this step back up in trip. However, PARTY VIBES hit the line powerfully when victorious over an extended 2m4f at Cheltenham and could improve for this step up in distance. Provided Henry Daly's mare is as effective against the boys, she could prove hard to beat. Roaring Conquest completes the shortlist.

The forecast heavy ground helps to put the focus on HENRI THE SECOND who excelled under such conditions at this track last winter.

Barenboim accounted for Vice President when returning to winning ways in this grade at Kempton on his most recent outing and is expected to confirm that form. Even so, BERKSHIRE SUNDANCE looks the way to go. The six-year-old ran too badly to be true when well beaten in a warmer event at Newcastle, but this is a lot easier and he could take full advantage. Therapist is another to keep an eye on.

Educator is feared but a chance is taken on VICE PRESIDENT who should be well suited by this return to 2m.

PLATIN MOON gave the impression he has a lot more offer over hurdles when scoring at Ayr earlier in the month. He'll go on the ground if the rain continues to fall and another bold showing looks assured. Of the others, Gemini Man has been knocking on the door here and would be no surprise winner, while Paddys Policy is also noted.

The progressive MAGNA VICTOR beat Gemini Man over C&D in December and Alastair Ralph's 7yo is taken to follow up.

Despite failing to complete the four-timer, Mr Vango was far from disgraced when only beaten a short-head into second in the Becher at Aintree and his chance is there for all to see. However, FORTUNATE MAN was a convincing winner at the same venue on Boxing Day and could have a lot more in the locker. A 5lb rise might underestimate the manner of that success and he looks the one to beat. Pic Roc may also have a say.

The admirable Mr Vango commands respect but, in receipt of almost two stone, FORTUNATE MAN may prove the answer.

Several of these are old rivals and there is little to choose between the likes of The Thames Boatman, Star Chorus and Master Of My Fate based on recent encounters. However, MICHAELA'S BOY has a good record on Polytrack and this now dual C&D winner could be the answer bidding to follow up after resuming winning ways here 19 days ago. Having won off this mark before, a 5lb rise is workable for Robert Cowell's six-year-old.

Diomed Spirit and Atomic Force can go well but THE THAMES BOATMAN can enhance his fine course record.

REXEM appreciated going back over fences when a running-on second over 2m4f here on New Year's Day and the Irish raider is well worth another chance going up in trip. Sammy Smart will make it tough for the selection judged on recent form at Thurles and Punchestown, which includes a narrow win at the latter venue. Kelce should also be thereabouts.

The front-runner KELCE (nap) ran well a lot more often than not in 2025 and he earns the vote ahead of Irish challenger Sammy Smart.

1	2 1st (2) (11/4 +21%) Zryan		2.75 11/4(+21%)																															(2) Zryan 11/4, Scored by a length off a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton three starts back. Never threatened when meeting trouble, finishing tenth beaten 7 1/4l off 86 last time, with the same mark here. Won at Wolverhampton last month and he didn't get any luck over C&D latest; interesting.
2	6 2nd (6) (14/1 +30%) Inappropriate		14 14/1(+30%)																															(6) Inappropriate 14/1, Below par up in class when comfortably held in a handicap here last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time; suited by 10f and was unlucky on his penultimate start so could bounce back. Dual purpose performer who is not easy to predict and was laboured over C&D last time.
3	1 3rd (1) (2/1 +0%) Londoner		2 2/1(+0%)																															(1) Londoner 2/1, Bit free but returned to form down in class when beaten 2l off this mark at Kempton last time. Effective at 10-11f and generally consistent. Strong claims if getting stiff test down in trip. C&D winner who is generally reliable and was runner-up at Kempton ten days ago; respected.
4	5 4th (5) (15/8 +17%) Pride Of Donegal		1.875 15/8(+17%)																															(5) Pride Of Donegal 15/8, Quickened clear and ran to form but kicked on too soon when fourth, beaten 4 1/2l, in a handicap at Lingfield latest. Suited by 10-12f and all runs have been on the all-weather. Likely has a bit more to offer down in trip and looks the one to beat. Kempton winner who still has potential and could be a big factor back in trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (12/1 -71%) Haveyoumissedme		12 12/1(-71%)																															(7) Haveyoumissedme 12/1, Scored by a head off a 2lb lower mark at Redcar in November. Effective at 12-16f, has a good mark, and is in form, posing a threat if the race provides a stiff test. His last win was over 1m6f but was placed over C&D 11 days ago; dangerous.
6th	4 6th (4) (28/1 -12%) Intinso		28 28/1(-12%)																															(4) Intinso 28/1, Poor hurdle debut when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Cartmel latest. Effective at 12-14f but regressive based on recent form in both codes. Regressive for current yard and tailed off over hurdles latest; lots to prove on return.
7th	3 7th (3) (33/1 -200%) Good Morning Alex		33 33/1(-200%)																															(3) Good Morning Alex 33/1, Needed the run when beaten 9 1/2l in a handicap at Southwell last time. Best at 8f and has stamina to prove over this longer trip. All seven wins have been at around 1m and has something to prove at this new trip.

ZRYAN has been in decent form over the past few months and can easily be forgiven his latest C&D effort when not getting a clear run at a crucial stage. The five-year-old makes plenty of appeal dropping in grade and gets the vote to earn a fourth career success. Londoner's second at Kempton gives him every chance of being in the mix, while Pride Of Donegal remains capable of better on only his ninth career start.

The vote goes to ZRYAN, who won at Wolverhampton last month and didn't get any luck in a Class 2 event over C&D last time.

1	1 1st (1) (9/2 -13%) Way To Dubai		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(1) Way To Dubai 9/2, Below form when fourth, beaten 5l, in a handicap here last time. Effective at 6-8f and requires a bounce back to feature more prominently on this occasion. Still seeking a first win in Britain but plenty of good runs on AW here this winter.
2	9 2nd (9) (12/1 +0%) Antiquity		12 12/1(+0%)																															(9) Antiquity 12/1, No-show from off the pace down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; trainer in form; effective around 8f, acts on G and AW; enthusiasm sometimes a worry but mark has dropped. Won three times in first half of 2025 but gone off boil in recent starts.
3	8 3rd (8) (4/1 +38%) Dandy Khan		4 4/1(+38%)																															(8) Dandy Khan 4/1, Below form when fifth, beaten 4 1/4l, off 62 last time, with the same mark here. Has a top course jockey booked and needs a bounce back after a rare below-par run. Four AW wins here since joining this yard; could bounce back from below-par fifth latest.
4	3 4th (3) (15/2 +17%) Pitney		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(3) Pitney 15/2, Just about to form when fourth, beaten 5l, in a handicap at Chelmsford last time. Drawn wide again and effective at 7-9f, but needs more to be competitive. No win since autumn 2024 but respectable in-frame efforts around 1m on last four starts.
5th	2 5th (2) (6/1 0%) Baloo's Blues		6 6/1(0%)																															(2) Baloo's Blues 6/1, Best work late, ran to form when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton latest; off a short-break; effective 7f, acts on GF and AW; can go well in this. Second on 7f turf handicap debut last May; fourth on AW five months later; gelded after.
6th	6 6th (6) (15/2 -150%) No Knee Never		7.5 15/2(-150%)																															(6) No Knee Never 15/2, Returned to his best when landing a handicap by 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Southwell last time. Effective at 6-8f and remains on a fair mark. Good record since fitted with cheekpieces, including 7f win latest; should go well again.
7th	7 7th (7) (12/1 +52%) Dodging The Bullet		12 12/1(+52%)																															(7) Dodging The Bullet 12/1, Below his best back on the Flat when failing to stay, beaten 7 1/4l, in a handicap here last time. Effective at 8f and the drop in trip is a plus. Well held on 1m2f course handicap debut 14 days ago; down markedly in trip now.
8th	10 8th (10) (33/1 -340%) Naval Ensign		33 33/1(-340%)																															(10) Naval Ensign 33/1, Below form when fifth, beaten 8 1/4l, off 64 last time and now 3lb lower. Hood is applied for the first time and a bounce back is required. Got up late over C&D at start of the month; hung left when fifth here since; hooded now.
9th	11 9th (11) (40/1 -100%) Havana Touch		40 40/1(-100%)																															(11) Havana Touch 40/1, Again below form when beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Southwell last time. Effective at 7/8f but the mark continues to ease without signs of improvement. Struggled so far this winter but worth a look in betting from falling mark.
10th	5 10th (5) (22/1 -120%) Suzuka		22 22/1(-120%)																															(5) Suzuka 22/1, Found little after hanging when well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Had been in good form beforehand, though drawn wide again, and a bounce back is needed. Ended time for Roger Varian with Wolverhampton win but well held on recent yard debut.
11th	12 11th (12) (5/1 +75%) Kaaranah		5 5/1(+75%)																															(12) Kaaranah 5/1, A no-show from off the pace when well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective at 8-10f, with 9f possibly his best, but remains unproven on this surface. Both wins around 1m but on a dangerous mark and needs market check after short break.
12th	4 12th (4) (40/1 -21%) Under The Sun		40 40/1(-21%)																															(4) Under The Sun 40/1, Remained below form when comfortably held in a handicap at Chelmsford last time. Effective at 7/8f but arrives in poor form and has something to prove. Tumbling down weights without suggesting he's ready to take advantage.

Gelded since last seen, BALOO'S BLUES is a potential improver that looks worth chancing on just his third start in a handicap. A rating of just 65 is highly workable and he won't need to raise his game by much to get off the mark this time. No Knee Never, a ready winner over 7f at Southwell 11 days ago, is feared the most with a 3lb rise manageable for the step back up to a mile. Way To Dubai and Naval Ensign complete the shortlist.

A small rise may well not prevent NO KNEE NEVER (nap) going in again, particularly with Mason Paetel taking 5lb off.

1	1 1st (1) (8/1 +0%) Pal Joey		8 8/1(+0%)																															(1) Pal Joey 8/1, Below form in a first-time visor when beaten 3 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark here last time. A top course jockey takes over, he is effective at 6f and 7f and is now on a competitive mark. Won at Haydock last summer but he's been disappointing since and is untried at this trip.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 +14%) I Need Your Love		6 6/1(+14%)																															(4) I Need Your Love 6/1, Was a bit keen but ran to form when beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time. Effective at 5f and 6f, he is generally in form, although this mark demands more. Faded when favourite at Southwell latest but he looks interesting back at this trip.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/1 +44%) Lion's House		9 9/1(+44%)																															(3) Lion's House 9/1, Free and never threatened when beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap here last time. Drawn wide again, he is effective at 5f and 6f, his mark is falling, but he is not in his best form. Triple Tapeta winner but he's finished down the field at Newcastle in his last five starts.
4	8 4th (8) (7/2 -5%) Water Of Leith		3.5 7/2(-5%)																															(8) Water Of Leith 7/2, Had too much to do after meeting trouble when beaten 2 1/2l off this mark at Wolverhampton last time. Effective at 5f and 6f, his mark is easing and he could build on that latest run. Runner-up over 6f at Wolverhampton on Friday; respected back in trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (15/2 +25%) Lucius Aurelius		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(7) Lucius Aurelius 15/2, Made too much use of when beaten 6l in a handicap at Southwell last time. His trainer is in form and he returns from a break, but a wide draw is a concern, with his form tailing off towards the end of last year. 0-13 and has been out of sorts in last three runs; needs to revive after after break.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/2 -22%) Emperor's Son		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(2) Emperor's Son 11/2, Scored by a length off a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start. Third beaten 4l off 70 last time and runs from the same mark here, with a top course trainer and effectiveness at 5f and 6f. In form and should go well again. Won at Wolverhampton but was well below that form at Southwell latest; risks attached.
7th	10 7th (10) (40/1 -150%) Latin Five		40 40/1(-150%)																															(10) Latin Five 40/1, Scored by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. Ran to form when fifth, beaten 4l off 52 last time from the same mark, is usually held up and is in fair form. Won over C&D last month and he had an excuse against a pace bias last time; not ruled out.
8th	5 8th (5) (7/2 +13%) Our Absent Friends		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(5) Our Absent Friends 7/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 6lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. Travelled and ran to form when second, beaten 1/2l off 65 last time, and is 1lb higher now, remaining competitive over 5f. Made all over C&D last month and was a close second here last time; key player.
9th	6 9th (6) (15/2 -7%) Ganesha		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(6) Ganesha 15/2, Had every chance but was below form when beaten 5l in a handicap here last time. He had been in good form prior to that effort and is suited by 5f. Not easy to predict but he had a couple of close calls over C&D last month; in the mix.
10th	9 10th (9) (80/1 -300%) Wrestling Revenue		80 80/1(-300%)																															(9) Wrestling Revenue 80/1, Outpaced and below form when beaten 7l in a handicap at Redcar last time. He returns from a break, has a wide draw to contend with, is suited by 5f, but remains unreliable. 5yo who is not easy to predict and has uninspiring record on AW; has work to do on return.

OUR ABSENT FRIENDS won over C&D in December before returning off a 5lb higher mark and finishing second to an in-form rival last Tuesday. A repeat of that display would make him tough to beat. Emperor's Son scored at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start and has to be respected based on that performance. Others to consider are I Need Your Love and Latin Five.

The vote goes to OUR ABSENT FRIENDS who made all over C&D on his penultimate run and was close second on his return visit 11 days ago.

4	1 4th (1) (5/2 +0%) Cerelia		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(1) Cerelia 5/2, The yard won this race last year and she was still green when hitting the front, but ran to form when beaten a length into third in a novice at Southwell last time. Effective at 7–8f, her latest form has been boosted and she has a good chance. Flashed tail when a beaten favourite last time; previously second over C&D; sets standard.

Cerelia boasts the advantage of racecourse experience having placed on both career outings over C&D and at Southwell. That said, she showed signs of temperament on the latter occasion when flashing her tail and it wouldn't be a surprise if one the newcomers obliged, with the vote going to MAJESTIC DANE. Karl Burke always commands respect with his newcomers and he makes plenty of appeal, while Aurelune, a half-sister to Lucky Vega, is another to note.

With an experience edge over her rivals, CERELIA can get off the mark, although she did not look entirely straightforward last time.

Effective at 6-8f but continues to run below his best. Not beaten far here (6f) this month, after a break, and lurks on a dangerous mark.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/1 +29%) Benacre		5 5/1(+29%)																															(3) Benacre 5/1, Taken on up front and setting it up for the closers when beaten 5l in a handicap at Chelmsford last time. Effective at 7/8f and had been in solid form prior to that run. Below form at Chelmsford last month but ran big race in defeat over C&D two starts ago.
3	7 3rd (7) (13/2 -30%) Midnight's Dream		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(7) Midnight's Dream 13/2, Far too free and lit up by first-time blinkers when beaten 2 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Kempton last time. Effective at 7/8f, with a bit to prove at present despite being below his last winning mark. Seemingly aided by blinkers when fifth at Kempton recently; remains well handicapped.
4	4 4th (4) (3/1 +57%) Beattie Is Back		3 3/1(+57%)																															(4) Beattie Is Back 3/1, Unsuited by the drop in trip and in need of the run when beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time. A top course trainer, usually held up, with 7f suiting and his mark looking fair. Returned from break with very encouraging 6f run this month; back up to optimum trip today.
5th	2 5th (2) (16/1 -78%) Northern Spirit		16 16/1(-78%)																															(2) Northern Spirit 16/1, Refused in a handicap here last time. Effective at 5/6f, with a strongly run 5f probably ideal, and capable of better than he has shown recently. Not at best in recent weeks and refused to race here 11 days ago; too risky.
6th	8 6th (8) (13/2 +41%) Space Cowboy		6.5 13/2(+41%)																															(8) Space Cowboy 13/2, Too much to do after blowing the start but hinting at a revival when beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Chelmsford last time. A trainer in form, usually held up, effective at 6f on the all-weather and unexposed at 7f. Quirky customer; did well to snatch third at Chelmsford this month but is hard to predict.
7th	6 7th (6) (10/3 -78%) The Green Man		3.333333 10/3(-78%)																															(6) The Green Man 10/3, Scored by 1/4l off a 5lb lower mark here three starts back and travelled well when second, beaten 1/2l off 73 last time. Effective at 6-8f, in form, and his mark still looks fair. Won three times here (6f-7f) in autumn and has twice looked unlucky over 1m this month.
8th	9 8th (9) (40/1 -122%) Kitaab		40 40/1(-122%)																															(9) Kitaab 40/1, In need of the run when beaten 9l in a handicap here last time. Effective at 6-7f on the all-weather and must leave that reappearance effort behind. Dual 6f winner; returned from one-year absence with low-key run here last week.
9th	1 9th (1) (20/1 -167%) War Howl		20 20/1(-167%)																															(1) War Howl 20/1, May have found the ground too soft when beaten 9l in a classified race at Ascot last time. A top course jockey is booked, returning from a break, effective at 7-8f, and a game, very likeable type, though his mark may now be stiff. Dual turf winner last summer but makes stable debut from fairly tough mark.

Based on recent form, THE GREEN MAN appears to be the logical choice. Having been placed over a mile here twice since winning over C&D in December, stepping back down a furlong could be ideal for Philip Kirby's consistent seven-year-old. Space Cowboy is unexposed at this trip and could kick on after a resuming from a break with a respectable third at Chelmsford, while Benacre and Beattie Is Back are other previous track-and-trip winners to consider.

The pick is MIDNIGHT'S DREAM, who recently arrested his decline with a decent effort in new blinkers and has slipped to a handy mark.

1	8 1st (8) (25/1 -39%) Dream Illusion		25 25/1(-39%)																															(8) Dream Illusion 25/1, Had no obvious excuse when well beaten in a handicap at Southwell latest. Effective over 7/8f on AW but has been inconsistent since joining her new yard. Just one win from 17 starts and was disappointing at Southwell last Saturday; passed over.
2	10 2nd (10) (16/1 -78%) Pallas Lord		16 16/1(-78%)																															(10) Pallas Lord 16/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off this mark here last time. Drawn wide again, effective over 7/8f on AW, and on a fair mark, he could be running back into form. Nine-time course winner who has been running well here in last three starts; respected.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/1 -11%) Mercurius Power		10 10/1(-11%)																															(2) Mercurius Power 10/1, Ran to form when benefitting from a pace collapse, beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time. Effective at 8f with all recent form on AW, but a bounce back is needed. Needs to raise his game but he's on dangerous mark and this is a drop back in grade.
4	7 4th (7) (4/1 +47%) Wyvern		4 4/1(+47%)																															(7) Wyvern 4/1, Scored by a length off a 3lb lower mark here in November. Effective over 7/8f on AW, in fine form, and having won off higher marks here before, a longer trip looks a plus. Two wins here since November and he's respected back up in trip and down in grade.
5th	5 5th (5) (13/2 +13%) Springbok		6.5 13/2(+13%)																															(5) Springbok 13/2, Had too much to do off a modest pace when beaten 1 1/2l off this mark here last time. Drawn wide again, effective at 8f but still a maiden and needs to build on a recent revival. 0-13 but was a creditable third behind Trais Fluors over C&D latest; possibilities.
6th	1 6th (1) (5/2 +9%) Relevant Range		2.5 5/2(+9%)																															(1) Relevant Range 5/2, Did it readily when winning a classified race here by 5l last time, improving though not beating much. Wide draw to overcome, but effective at 8f, running well for the new yard and well treated back in a handicap, a big player. Made it 2-5 for current yard with easy win over C&D last Saturday; key player.
7th	12 7th (12) (13/2 -18%) Alpine Sierra		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(12) Alpine Sierra 13/2, Ran to form when beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time. Effective over 7–10f on AW, he is a course winner in solid form. Losing run is mounting up but he's reached the frame here last twice; not ruled out.
8th	6 8th (6) (20/1 -43%) Annandale		20 20/1(-43%)																															(6) Annandale 20/1, Ran to form when just flattening out after racing freely and challenging early, finishing 5l third in a handicap here last time. His mark is falling and he could build on that latest effort. On dangerous mark but last win was over 1m5f and has work to do back at this trip.
9th	11 9th (11) (16/1 -45%) Volenti		16 16/1(-45%)																															(11) Volenti 16/1, Won this race last year but had no obvious excuse when beaten 7l in a handicap here last time. Effective over 8–10f on AW, though his form has tailed off. Won this last year but he's 0-14 since and has been beaten 7l over C&D last twice.
10th	9 10th (9) (12/1 +0%) Little Ted		12 12/1(+0%)																															(9) Little Ted 12/1, Ran to form when beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time. His trainer is in form, he is effective at 8–10f on AW, and his mark remains competitive. Usually comes from off the pace and had near miss here on penultimate run; dangerous.
11th	4 11th (4) (12/1 -20%) Trais Fluors		12 12/1(-20%)																															(4) Trais Fluors 12/1, Scored by a head off a 3lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. Usually held up, effective over 7/8f and in good form, remaining thrown in on old efforts, though his run style does require luck. Won over C&D four weeks ago and he had an excuse back at 7f here last time; in the mix.
12th	3 12th (3) (66/1 -32%) Far Ahead		66 66/1(-32%)																															(3) Far Ahead 66/1, Made too much use of when finishing down the field in a handicap at Southwell most recently. Trained by a top course yard, but has a bit to prove at present on recent evidence. Lightly raced 4yo but he's struggled this winter and needs a major revival.

RELEVANT RANGE is on a roll and is hard to oppose after readily justifying favouritism in a classified stakes here last week. This is a stiffer test back in a handicap, but the seven-year-old won that race with plenty in hand and a repeat dose could suffice. Pallas Lord always commands respect at this venue, while Annandale and Wyvern can also make this a deeper test for the selection.

Top of the list is RELEVANT RANGE (nap) who made it 2-5 for his current yard when scoring by almost 5l over C&D last Saturday.

1	4 1st (4) (15/2 -36%) Henriette Ronner		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(4) Henriette Ronner 15/2, Lacked the pace to land a blow when dropped in trip, beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time. All form is over 7f and she is bred to want 8f or further, needing a return to 7f+. Ran okay on handicap debut (7f) but well held since (6f); blinkers now added.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 +36%) Mademoiselle Belle		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(7) Mademoiselle Belle 9/2, Had a bit too much to do when ridden further back, beaten 3/4l off this mark here last time. Effective at 5f or 6f, with the latter suiting better. Her mark looks competitive. Placed three times this month (5f-6f) and has obvious each-way claims again.
3	5 3rd (5) (6/1 -50%) Surgeon Commander		6 6/1(-50%)																															(5) Surgeon Commander 6/1, Enjoyed making the running and improved when landing a handicap by a nose off a 2lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 6f or 7f and best when racing at the front. Came well clear with the second on that occasion and remains a contender despite a stiffer mark. Dual 7f course winner this winter; big player if suited by this drop back in trip.
4	6 4th (6) (3/1 +14%) Faithful Dream		3 3/1(+14%)																															(6) Faithful Dream 3/1, Improved a little on his second run after a wind operation when beaten a length off this mark at Wolverhampton last time. Effective at 6f and may have found his level. A longer trip could be interesting. Kept on well to dead-heat for second at Wolverhampton on Monday; same mark here.
5th	8 5th (8) (17/2 +39%) Container Express		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(8) Container Express 17/2, Scored by a neck off a 1lb lower mark here three starts back and ran roughly to form when fifth, beaten 5l, off 52 last time. Now 1lb lower. Usually held up, effective at 6f or 7f, though a shorter trip may suit better. Looks exposed. Narrow C&D winner in November but not in same form on next two starts; others preferred.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/2 +10%) Evolve		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(1) Evolve 9/2, Eased 2l late when held, hinting he did not quite stay when beaten 6 1/2l in a maiden here last time. Trained by a leading course handler, suited by 6f and may get 7f. Not fully exposed yet. Kept on for fourth in C&D novice on New Year's Day; open to improvement in handicaps.
7th	2 7th (2) (25/1 -285%) Golden Havana		25 25/1(-285%)																															(2) Golden Havana 25/1, Outpaced but very game, with headgear and the stiff track helping when landing a handicap by a short-head off a 2lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 5f or 6f, with a stiff 5f ideal. Improved in blinkers latest but on a stiffer mark. Just held on to open account over 5f here last month; not yet proven over 6f.
8th	3 8th (3) (6/1 +25%) Full Gas		6 6/1(+25%)																															(3) Full Gas 6/1, Improved off a break and up in trip when fourth, beaten 5l, in a novice here latest. Trainer is in form and he returns after a short break. Stays 7f and may come on a fraction for that reappearance run. Returned from break with promising run in 7f novice here last month; handicap debut.

The unexposed Evolve could prove to be a different proposition now tacking handicaps. Surgeon Commander was all out to score by a nose over 7f here recently and is noted, but FAITHFUL DREAM gets the vote. The son of Dream Ahead showed a lot more when sharing second over this trip at Wolverhampton on Monday and a similar performance might suffice.

The vote goes to FAITHFUL DREAM, who shaped as though his turn might be near when dead-heating for second at Woverhampton on Monday.

1	2 1st (2) (6/4 +57%) Lord Capulet		1.5 6/4(+57%)																															(2) Lord Capulet 6/4, Returned to form when suited by a positive ride down in trip, landing a handicap by a length here off a 3lb lower mark last time. The trainer is in form, his best efforts have come at 7f, and he may have a bit more to offer. Made virtually all over C&D this month and has scope to build on that success.
2	10 2nd (10) (15/2 +32%) Pit Boss		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(10) Pit Boss 15/2, Ran to form when beaten 2l here last time off a 1lb higher mark. Usually held up, he is effective at 6–7f and remains a frustrating maiden, though his current mark looks reasonable. Sound effort when fourth over C&D last week but strike-rate is now 0-19.
3	8 3rd (8) (11/1 -69%) Ardaddy		11 11/1(-69%)																															(8) Ardaddy 11/1, Travelled well and quickly returned to form when beaten a head here last time off a 2lb lower mark. Effective at 6–7f, although his recent form has been a little in and out. Has not progressed from his autumn win but went very close over C&D last week.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 +0%) Book Of Life		9 9/1(+0%)																															(4) Book Of Life 9/1, Was a bit free but returned to form when beaten 3l here last time off a 1lb higher mark. Effective between 7–10f and now below his last winning mark, he has a chance if able to build on that latest run. Not easy to predict, but has been placed on two of his four stable starts; a possible.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/1 +18%) Minshaar		9 9/1(+18%)																															(1) Minshaar 9/1, Scored by 1 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here three starts back. Ran to form when third, beaten 3l, up in trip off 61 last time and is 1lb lower here. Effective at 6–7f and from a top course trainer, she arrives in good form. Placed on both outings since breakthrough win over C&D in November.
6th	9 6th (9) (10/1 -150%) Instant Bond		10 10/1(-150%)																															(9) Instant Bond 10/1, Was a bit free but returned to form in a first-time tongue tie when beaten a neck here last time off this mark. Probably effective between 5–7f, he is largely consistent and looks competitively weighted. 0-14 now but has been placed on four of his last five appearances (6f-7f).
7th	5 7th (5) (18/1 -13%) Amelia's Joy		18 18/1(-13%)																															(5) Amelia's Joy 18/1, Was outpaced but returned to form up in trip when beaten 2 1/4l here last time off a 1lb higher mark. Effective at 6–7f, she needs to build on that effort, with a longer trip noted as a possible positive. Well held on first two stable starts but last month's C&D fourth was much better.
8th	7 8th (7) (15/2 -25%) Ana Emaraaty		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(7) Ana Emaraaty 15/2, Improved a little on recent form when needing every yard down in trip to land a handicap by a head here last time off a 3lb lower mark. Effective over 8–16f, a longer trip is a plus and he remains well treated on best efforts. Just did enough to score over C&D last week; 3lb rise leaves him a shade vulnerable.
9th	6 9th (6) (7/1 +7%) Coramento		7 7/1(+7%)																															(6) Coramento 7/1, Scored by 1/2l here three starts back off a 4lb lower mark. Was a bit too free and flattened out when sixth, beaten 7l, off 59 last time and is 1lb lower now. Suited by 7–8f but needs more from this mark. Dual course winner in the autumn; not at same level on either appearance this month.

Lord Capulet struck over track and trip earlier in the month and commands respect, despite having a 3lb higher mark to contend with. Book Of Life finished second over a mile here last time and is respected, but the one that appeals most is ARDADDY. The four-year-old was denied by a head behind Ana Emaraaty over C&D last week, but competes off better terms and could take a step forward to turn the tables.

This can go to LORD CAPULET, who fended off a progressive rival to open his account over C&D three weeks ago and is not fully exposed.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

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. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
