1	14 1st (14) (4/1 +64%) Sovereign Spell		4 4/1(+64%)																																(14) Sovereign Spell 4/1, Took advantage of a good opening when winning a maiden at Wolverhampton by 5 1/2l last time; suited by 5/6f, acts on sound surfaces; mark left unchanged and can go well back in a handicap.

3	15 3rd (15) (17/2 -55%) Albaydaa		8.5 17/2(-55%)																																(15) Albaydaa 17/2, Improved to get off the mark upped to 7f when winning a maiden at Wolverhampton by 5 1/2l last time; effective at 6/7f, acts on soft and AW; more to come as a 3yo and drop in trip shouldn't be an issue. Looks the type to improve further and do well in handicaps for her major connections.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 +56%) Song Of The Clyde		4 4/1(+56%)																																(1) Song Of The Clyde 4/1, Bit below form beaten 2 1/4l in William Hill Two Year Old Trophy (Listed) at Redcar last time; in good form prior; suited by around 6f, may get further, acts on good to soft and good to firm; up against it off a tough mark on handicap debut. Largely progressive form includes good performances in two sales races; in the mix.
5th	11 5th (11) (9/1 +50%) Ironwill		9 9/1(+50%)																																(11) Ironwill 9/1, Defied a penalty, looked a nice type when winning a novice at Beverley by 3 1/4l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good to firm; capable of better this season now handicapping. Completed a September double; looks open to further progress this term; possibilities.
6th	5 6th (5) (12/1 +14%) First Legion		12 12/1(+14%)																																(5) First Legion 12/1, Bit below form when 4l third in a 2yo race at Salisbury most recent run; probably best suited by 6f, acts at 5f, likes a sound surface; handicapper slowly relenting. Tad exposed, as record of 0-6 since debut success reflects; below par last time.
7th	6 7th (6) (40/1 -82%) Rogue Supremacy		40 40/1(-82%)																																(6) Rogue Supremacy 40/1, Bit below form beaten 7l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; flattered by Group 3 second but mark keeps easing. Returns to turf; chance largely depends on the effects of first-time headgear.
8th	8 8th (8) (100/1 -100%) Sir Alfie		100 100/1(-100%)																																(8) Sir Alfie 100/1, Never dangerous in the Legacy Stakes (Listed) last time; effective 5/6f on sound surface; 5lb higher than when winning at the Curragh in August. Ex-Irish; 1-1 at handicap level but this looks a stiffer task on stable debut.
9th	2 9th (2) (20/1 +29%) Boston Dan		20 20/1(+29%)																																(2) Boston Dan 20/1, Below form on deep ground when well beaten in Prospect Stakes (Listed) at Doncaster latest; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; mark looks tough for this handicap debut.

10th	9 10th (9) (20/1 -43%) Sayidah Hard Spun		20 20/1(-43%)																																(9) Sayidah Hard Spun 20/1, Game and ran to form beaten 1 1/2l in Sirenia Stakes (Group 3) at Kempton last time; significant jockey booking; suited by 6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; new mark asks more back in a handicap on return. Raised 4lb for finishing fifth in substandard AW Group 3 but may do better still.
11th	12 11th (12) (20/1 -43%) Lebron Power		20 20/1(-43%)																																(12) Lebron Power 20/1, Benefited from drop in class when landing a handicap by a head off a 2lb lower mark at Newbury last time; effective 5/6f, acts on any; can go well off what remains a fair mark for this return. Brings good stats, being 3-6 overall, 2-2 in handicaps and 2-2 over 6f; one to consider.
12th	4 12th (4) (4/1 -14%) Treanmor		4 4/1(-14%)																																(4) Treanmor 4/1, Improved upped in trip when 2l third in a 3yo race at Meydan most recent run; top course jockey/trainer combination; off a short-break; effective 6-8f on a sound surface; good chance in this back sprinting. Impressive over C&D last May and looks interesting back in this scenario on handicap debut.
13th	3 13th (3) (11/1 -47%) Silent Applause		11 11/1(-47%)																																(3) Silent Applause 11/1, Lacked pace when fourth in Roses Stakes (Listed) at York latest; top course trainer; suited by 5f, stays 6f, acts on good and fast; more to come this term although Buick rides Treanmor.

A competitive affair to get the action underway ahead of an excellent day's racing at racing headquarters, and only a tentative vote can go to FIRST LEGION. The son of Mehmas was highly tried after making a winning debut at York and although that didn't go to plan, his sole nursery effort to date is where the interest stems from. Beaten less than two lengths into seventh on the Knavesmire, despite not getting the best of runs, he looks well worth chancing given that he's now 2lb lower. C&D novice winner Treanmor merits respect following a couple of fair efforts out in Dubai, as does stable companion Silent Applause. Sovereign Spell belatedly opened his account at Wolverhampton last month and can show the benefits of that recent spin, and don't rule out Pilu at a big price, because his yard have made a bright start to the new campaign.

The signs look good for SOVEREIGN SPELL (nap) who is a very similar type to last year's winner. Reciprocated is second pick.

Down the field at big odds this year on his first two starts (6f/7f, AW).

MIND OVER MATTER sets the standard and should appreciate returning to both turf and a longer trip. The son of Starspangledbanner disappointed over the minimum distance at Newcastle most recently but is better judged on the promise shown in two previous starts over 6f at Ayr. The Untamed was a clear second on his debut at Chelmsford and is likely to take a step forward. Vega Storm and Different Opinions also warrant close inspection.

The attractively bred THE UNTAMED was a promising second on last month's debut at Chelmsford and is taken to go one better.

The 130-rated KING'S BUCKS sets the standard. He was pulled up on his latest start, but that was in a Grade 1 at the Cheltenham Festival and it is well worth noting that he was placed in a Grade 2 novices' hurdle at Cheltenham in November. He is a winner of a soft-ground point-to-point. He Can't Dance has been placed in all six hurdle races including in a valuable handicap at the Dublin Racing Festival, so wouldn't be winning out of turn. The market ought to be revealing about Casual Water, who makes his debut for Willie Mullins, as he is a half-brother to the top-class Altior.

The interesting one is CASUAL WATER, a half-brother to Altior making his debut for the champion trainer

The Gosdens boast a strong hand with their duo Portcullis and Santushti. The former, by the mighty Frankel out of French Guineas winner Castle Lady, is perhaps the yard's leading hope but this looks a deep renewal on paper and perhaps Andrew Balding can replicate last year's heroics with NORTH BEACH. The New Bay colt fetched 390,000 euros as a yearling and has a pedigree mixed with speed and stamina. That speed could be crucial in these early-season contests so it would come as no surprise were he to go close. Crown Knott is another key player for his leading connections and spare a thought for Jane Chapple-Hyam's Bemersyde too.

The betting will be a key piece of the Wood Ditton puzzle but the suggestion is PORTCULLIS ahead of stablemate Santushti.

URCHIN was a promising third when introduced in a similar contest over the mile here last August. The way the son of Ulysses rallied in the closing stages that day would suggest he ought to do better over middle distances this year. Poppeye also caught the eye on his debut over 1m4f at Southwell and is another key player. Sea And Sun, Sun Lord and Picaro are interesting newcomers and must be monitored in the betting.

The Karl Burke-trained URCHIN was a promising third over 1m here on his sole 2yo start and is bred to come into his own over this trip.

HARDY STUFF ought to appreciate these calmer waters after finishing unplaced in two deep contests at Cheltenham. It was just three runs back that he delivered at Leopardstown, which opened up routes to Prestbury Park. Sense Of Occasion has displayed ability in his maiden hurdles and could have a say, while Arctic Flame was in rude health last year, but faced a stiff task on her comeback run at the Dublin Racing Festival in February. Shellrunforbriggs isn't out of contention.

Recent C&D winner SOMETHING NOBLE (nap) gets the vote, ahead of Sense Of Occasion, Market Ready and topweight Hardy Stuff

A 222-day absence should be no concern for backers of TIME FOR SANDALS given the way in which trainer Harry Eustace has kicked off the new season. Last year's Commonwealth Cup heroine should be good enough to take this en route to next month's Minster Stakes at York and, if doing so, there is no telling just how far she can go again this year. Jasour travelled powerfully into the lead in the Cammidge last month only to be picked off by the progressive Aramram, who is considered the main threat, but Cornwallis winner Beckford's Folly can't be underestimated either.

Kept to Newmarket, BECKFORD'S FOLLY could well become the first 3yo to win this race for three decades. Quinault is second pick.

Tim Easterby has a good record in this race and can strike again with STORM ESME, who arrives having won two of her three starts as a juvenile. Considered good enough to tackle the Redcar Two-Year-Old-Trophy in between successes at Newcastle and Leicester, the daughter of Palace Pier looks a bright prospect for handicaps this term. Yy Spirit, Wyle Cop and Empress Olivia all know how to win races and are other notable contenders for the shortlist.

Tim Easterby's fine record in this 3yo handicap heightens interest in both STORM ESME and Bye Law.

Down 3lb from opening mark but needs to improve a good bit to play a major role.
10th	11 10th (11) (28/1 -40%) Thirsty Work		28 28/1(-40%)																																(11) Thirsty Work 28/1, No great improvement tried in a hood when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas most recent; returning from a break; improvement needed now handicapping.

HOUNDSWORTH was an emphatic winner at Cork recently and may be able to defy a 10lb hike. The Kameko gelding was overlooked in the betting, but that didn't stop him from recording a comprehensive six-length success. He remains unexposed and can go in again in what looks to be only a moderate contest. Wild Wild Wind has been knocking on the door, most recently when fourth at Clonmel, and is a player. The Dancen Kid wasn't disgraced at Wexford latest and must also enter calculations.

Not too many to get excited about but there could be more to come from recent Cork winner HOUNDSWORTH

Chance of opening his Group account depends on the effects of first-time headgear.

Unlikely to reverse Kempton placings with Hidden Force but again could go well.

His ceiling is seemingly already known and he doesn't have a Guineas entry.

HAWK MOUNTAIN made only a moderate debut but set the turf alight thereafter, winning twice at the Curragh, including the Group 2 Beresford, before landing the Futurity Trophy at Doncaster. This is unlikely to be his cup final given the entries he currently holds but it will be a handy gauge as to how he's progressed over the winter. The son of Wootton Bassett sets a lofty standard and might not need to be at his very best, but that would be a dangerous assumption given that Hidden Force and Avicenna are unbeaten in their two respective racecourse appearances. Hankelow could have a say too, and so might Oxagon, who probably wasn't seen to best effect on heavy ground behind the selection back in October.

Hawk Mountain is respected on the figures but he may be done for finishing kick by the promising HIDDEN FORCE in this scenario.

KATS BOB makes a lot of sense in this competitive handicap because his comeback second at Catterick was a performance full of promise, and he's clearly come out of that race in good form to be turned out just eight days later. Roberto Caro finished a solid third at Newcastle and switches to turf with every chance, while Sixtygeesbaby is another to note.

With his reappearance behind him, the unexposed SIXTYGEESBABY (nap) can take a step forward and record a first win for new connections.

LET HIM B might be able to follow up despite incurring an 11lb rise for his win at Down Royal last month. The Casamento gelding was value for a bit more than the winning margin would suggest, which looks even better now given that the runner-up has since recorded a commanding success at this venue. Potters Pal was the beneficiary of some late drama at Clonmel last time and although he was ultimately a wide-margin winner, an 8lb rise makes things tougher now. Poppycon showed improvement when runner-up at Wexford last month and is another for the shortlist.

MOUNT SHENSHAN has been showing enough over fences this season to suggest she's due a winning turn back hurdling

Having finished runner-up on all three outings, Baandee sets a fair standard for the others to aim at. Jack Morland's filly should be in the mix, but she may have to play second fiddle once more, with POINTE BLEU fancied to make a winning debut. The Blue Point filly is a half-sister to the decent Yaanaas and she will take all the beating if sharing similar ability. The returning Hassaleh is a feasible alternative.

A chance is taken that THURSDAY GIRL has learned plenty from her debut at Salisbury last year.

SPOKEN TRUTH could be the one here following a pleasing comeback run at Doncaster. Highly tried when trained in Ireland, the five-year-old finished a solid fourth on Town Moor and, entitled to have come forward for the run, this could be the time to catch him. Of the others, keep a close eye on the returning Pomme Pomme and C&D scorer Spioradalta.

The ex-Irish SPOKEN TRUTH made an encouraging start for David O'Meara when fourth at Doncaster last month and earns the vote.

Jullou De Grissay is entitled to build on last month's stable bow at Wincanton and isn't one to underestimate debuting over fences, especially given his success between the flags. However, MAXIMUM OFFERS looks the most solid proposition after shaping better than the beaten distance suggests when finishing third at Wincanton in January. Moonlit Potter continues to slide down the ratings and shouldn't be far away.

Jamie Snowden's MAXIMUM OFFERS jumped better when third on his second run over fences and this looks very winnable.

A step up in trip could suit ORLANDO SPIRIT. The French-bred gelding finished off well when narrowly denied at Thurles on his penultimate start and was also doing his best work late on at Cork last time. Mickey Hulie has also been placed on his last two outings. He drops in trip and with cheekpieces tried for the first time, he could be a danger. Rebel Cowgirl was hit with an 8lb rise for her Punchestown success but has to be respected. She beat Poets Oath that day, who went on to win the Cork race in which the selection finished third.

WISE MAN's pedigree is all stamina and with an eyecatching fifth over an inadequate trip behind him, he could prove difficult to beat

With four returning debut winners open to improvement, MAHO BAY edges the vote in what should prove a decent contest. Charlie Appleby's colt justified favouritism in some style at Kempton in December and there should be more to come. Irish raider Amadeus Mozart scored a shade cosily at the Curragh last June and merits the utmost of respect for top connections, while Guildmaster was impressive when scoring at Lingfield in December.

Charlie Appleby has won five of the eight runnings of this race and his MAHO BAY looks a good starting point for calculations this time.

1	4 1st (4) (9/4 +81%) Domination		2.25 9/4(+81%)																																(4) Domination 9/4, Struggled on handicap debut looking in need of a drop in the ratings when beaten 8 1/2l in a nursery at Nottingham last time; yet to show enough to be accurately assessed. Failed to threaten across his four 2yo starts; has to raise his game on stable debut.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/1 -17%) Fickle Mcselfish		7 7/1(-17%)																																(8) Fickle Mcselfish 7/1, Scored by 4 1/4l off a 10lb lower mark at Newcastle penultimate start; third beaten 2 1/4l off 56 last time; suited by 7f, all form on AW. Won in good style at Newcastle then raced wide early when third at Southwell.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +30%) Sailor Batt		3.5 7/2(+30%)																																(6) Sailor Batt 7/2, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; trainer in form; effective 6/7f; attitude questionable but better effort latest. Remains a maiden after nine starts but placed a few times, including last month (1m, AW).
4	7 4th (7) (16/1 -256%) Ciao Capo		16 16/1(-256%)																																(7) Ciao Capo 16/1, Probably improved pushed out for cosy win landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; returning from a break; bred to be effective at 7f+; could progress. Comfortable win on AW when last seen; player if continuing the good work back on turf.
5th	3 5th (3) (10/1 +38%) Singarda		10 10/1(+38%)																																(3) Singarda 10/1, Struggled, too slowly away and comfortably held at Beverley last time; effective 7f, acts on good; bit to come. Just one good run among his four 2yo starts but attractive mark on that York effort.
6th	1 6th (1) (11/2 -83%) Saxon Prince		5.5 11/2(-83%)																																(1) Saxon Prince 11/2, Out-kicked again despite being up in trip beaten a short-head at Kempton last time; stays 7f, strong pace at trip may suit; consistent. The step up in trip is worth a go on stable debut and he's one to consider.
7th	2 7th (2) (16/1 0%) Gwen's Girl		16 16/1(0%)																																(2) Gwen's Girl 16/1, Ran better last time, step up in trip suited when fourth, albeit beaten 10l, in a novice at Redcar in October; should improve a little for initial experience. Second on debut last September; two lesser runs followed but not ruled out on h'cap debut.
8th	5 8th (5) (7/1 -40%) Norcross Brow		7 7/1(-40%)																																(5) Norcross Brow 7/1, Raced freely beaten 2 1/4l at Newcastle last time; hood first time; effective 7/8f; bit to prove in handicaps. 0-6 but has shown promise and the first-time hood could help him settle better; chance.
9th	10 9th (10) (40/1 -150%) Leysthorpe Star		40 40/1(-150%)																																(10) Leysthorpe Star 40/1, Outpaced again when well beaten in a novice at Newcastle latest; off a short-break; probably stays 1m but looks limited. Half-brother to four winners who goes handicapping off a basement mark for in-form yard.
10th	9 10th (9) (28/1 -133%) Walk On Walk On		28 28/1(-133%)																																(9) Walk On Walk On 28/1, Emptied quickly beaten 8 1/4l in a nursery at Bath last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 6/7f, acts on soft and good to firm; seasonal debut. Showed ability last year but improvement is needed if he's to make a winning stable debut.
11th	11 11th (11) (28/1 -12%) Hood Wink		28 28/1(-12%)																																(11) Hood Wink 28/1, Ran to current form when fourth beaten 6l in a nursery at Newcastle latest; top course trainer; effective at 8f; more needed. 0-7 last year but went close the only time he wore these blinkers; gelded since last start.

Whilst a few of these are making their seasonal returns, it could pay to side with the race-fit SAXON PRINCE. A step up in trip is likely to suit given that he went desperately close over 7f at Kempton latest, whilst a first run on the grass might prove vital to his progress too. Fickle Mcselfish and Sailor Batt have both been in decent form on the all-weather lately and are more appealing than some. Domination is also noted.

Tony Coyle and Kaine Wood's horses are running well and the reappearing SINGARDA is on a good mark judged on his best 2yo performance.

Handicap debut (2m, good to soft) last time saw her well beaten after making most.
2	5 2nd (5) (15/8 +17%) Maestro Du Mesnil		1.875 15/8(+17%)																																(5) Maestro Du Mesnil 15/8, Travelled, still green and hung under pressure, improved on handicap debut when second beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Ffos Las latest; effective at 2m, acts on heavy and good; should improve again. Favourite, 2nd of six in handicap at Ffos Las (2m, heavy); scope for better (jumping/trip).

4	1 4th (1) (17/2 -55%) Geordies Betty		8.5 17/2(-55%)																																(1) Geordies Betty 17/2, Bit below form tiring up the hill up in trip on handicap debut when 11l third in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell most recent run; effective 2m-2m6f, acts with cut; probably more to come in handicaps. 11l third of seven at Fontwell (2m6f, good to soft) showed that improvement is needed.
5th	4 5th (4) (3/1 +10%) Brave Move		3 3/1(+10%)																																(4) Brave Move 3/1, Improved upped to 3m beaten 2l off a 1lb lower mark at Taunton last time; trainer in form; returning from a break; effective at 2m-3m, acts on sound surface; drop in trip might not suit but can still go well. Similar form in three handicaps, third of 16 at Taunton (3m, good) last time; off 126 days.
6th	8 6th (8) (40/1 -100%) Chosen Bae		40 40/1(-100%)																																(8) Chosen Bae 40/1, Poor chase debut when fourth beaten 52l in a handicap chase at Lingfield latest; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; inconsistent but likely happier back hurdling. Well held since winning on handicap debut in February 2025; 4lb out of the handicap.
7th	7 7th (7) (22/1 -10%) Shesupincourt		22 22/1(-10%)																																(7) Shesupincourt 22/1, No obvious excuse when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time; off a short-break; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on any; hard to fancy. Beaten at least 20l on all starts this term; opposable despite her fall in the weights.
2	2 |PU| (2) (40/1 -150%) Tara Iti		40 40/1(-150%)																																(2) Tara Iti 40/1, Made too much use of when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time; stays 2m-2m4f, probably acts on any; holds few secrets from the handicapper, run style requires pace collapse. He hasn't made an impact for current stable on Flat or over hurdles; down the weights.

Having posted his best effort to date when runner-up on his handicap bow at Ffos Las last month, compensation could be on the horizon for MAESTRO DU MESNIL. The four-year-old has room for improvement in the jumping department and a 1lb ease in the ratings may prove lenient. Churchman has been knocking on the door of late and it shouldn't be long until the bells start ringing, while Brave Move is heading in the right direction after hitting the frame at Taunton in December.

Clearly the most scope for improvement seems to belong to MAESTRO DU MESNIL. Brave Move is second choice ahead of Churchman.

Brother to Gaelic Warrior; ultimate respect on debut for top yard.

Leopardstown second has switched yards since; has to be considered a major player.

Always last of four on Punchestown debut in February; best watched.
5th	1 5th (1) (28/1 +58%) Big Boy Dan		28 28/1(+58%)																																(1) Big Boy Dan 28/1, Never in it from off the pace when well beaten in a bumper at Fairyhouse only start; more to come now up in trip. Well held on belated debut early this month in Fairyhouse winners' bumper; best watched.
6th	9 6th (9) (2/1 +60%) Too Hot To Trot		2 2/1(+60%)																																(9) Too Hot To Trot 2/1, Promising debut runner-up beaten a head in a maiden point at Ballindenisk only start; returning from a break; effective at 3m in points; brings potential to rules. Just denied in a point-to-point; joined top yard since so respected.

SPARKLING WIT is a fascinating newcomer, being a full-brother to Gold Cup winner Gaelic Warrior. He is sure to know his job first time up and Willie Mullins has landed the last two renewals of this contest. Muckanagh Lough is probably the pick of those with previous experience. The Elusive Pimpernel gelding chased home a potentially smart type in a Leopardstown bumper over Christmas and has since made the switch to Pat Foley. Too Hot To Trot, narrowly defeated on his sole outing in a point-to-point, is another to note on his first outing for Henry de Bromhead.

All eyes will be on Gaelic Warrior's full-brother SPARKLING WIT, who doesn't appear to have too arduous a task on debut

Good 2yo and latest third was encouraging; suspicion he could be on the way back.
6th	7 6th (7) (13/2 -63%) Storm Free		6.5 13/2(-63%)																																(7) Storm Free 13/2, Back to winning ways, step up in trip suited when landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Leicester last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good and AW; consistent and can go well again. Won in big field; plenty of potential ahead of this comeback on just fourth handicap start.
7th	10 7th (10) (22/1 -38%) Sujet		22 22/1(-38%)																																(10) Sujet 22/1, Below form when down the field in a handicap at Cork most recent; in good form prior; drawn on wing of large field; acts on soft and good to firm, effective 8-9f; consistent and may have bit more to offer in handicaps for new yard. Won twice for Dermot Weld; left that yard for 150,000gns; first try at 7f and unexposed.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 +0%) Jumby		20 20/1(+0%)																																(4) Jumby 20/1, Struggled when down the field in a handicap at Ascot most recent; suited by 7f, probably best on a sound surface; just a bit below form of late.

Prolific on AW for new yard and two wins in Ireland came in big fields on a sound surface.
10th	3 10th (3) (10/1 +60%) God Of War		10 10/1(+60%)																																(3) God Of War 10/1, Ran to form beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Kempton last time; effective 7-9f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; might want return to 1m but chance here still. Just 1lb above last win and fit from AW; could make his presence felt.
11th	5 11th (5) (8/1 +6%) Morte Point		8 8/1(+6%)																																(5) Morte Point 8/1, Quickened, held on, ran to form up in grade off revised mark when landing a handicap by a nose off a 2lb lower mark at Southwell last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; in fine form and 2lb rise may not be beyond him. 3-4 since asked to tackle 7f; big fields no problem; can likely do better again this term.

Weak in the market for his stable debut when it all went wrong at the start 19 days ago.

Having gone agonisingly close on his stable bow at Musselburgh recently, Gangsta Man is high on the shortlist. The 5f distance that day looked to be on the sharp side for the son of Dandy Man and he's unlikely to be far away, but ROYAL VELVET is a touch more compelling. The five-year-old is another who will appreciate a return to this trip and she may take some stopping if reproducing her York triumph in August last year. Morte Point, Goldmoyne and Huscal are other leading contenders.

Loads to consider not least STORM FREE who is unexposed but has already proven himself in big fields.

There are no fewer than five previous C&D winners on show for the finale and ON THE RIVER might be the pick of them. A creditable fifth in the Spring Mile at Doncaster latest, a run which should have blown away any cobwebs, he can take the necessary step forward, not least because the excellent Harry Vigors gets aboard to take 5lb off his back. Walsingham's winning run came to an end at Doncaster in October but he'd been otherwise progressive and might bounce back, whilst Cosmos Raj heads the remainder.

Last year's runner-up ON THE RIVER ran well when fifth of 22 in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on his reappearance and gets the nod.

1	10 1st (10) (14/1 -133%) Arctic Voyage		14 14/1(-133%)																																(10) Arctic Voyage 14/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Taunton latest; effective 2m, acts on heavy and good; inconsistent but capable. Placed over hurdles for previous yard but pulled up on debut for this one.
2	8 2nd (8) (15/8 +38%) Crystal Days		1.875 15/8(+38%)																																(8) Crystal Days 15/8, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Kelso latest; effective 2m, acts on good; bumper winner, inconsistent in short career over hurdles. 0-4 as a hurdler but placed on two occasions and was highly tried last time.
3	2 3rd (2) (15/2 -36%) American Empire		7.5 15/2(-36%)																																(2) American Empire 15/2, In need of a little more experience when fourth beaten 25l in a maiden hurdle at Fakenham latest; since undergone a wind op; effective 2m on good; capable of better. Placed form over hurdles and he's had wind surgery since a poor run at Fakenham in October.
4	7 4th (7) (12/1 -85%) Latin		12 12/1(-85%)																																(7) Latin 12/1, Ran to form dropped to 8f when fourth beaten 2 1/2l in a handicap at Pontefract latest; effective up to 11f on the Flat; bit to find back hurdling. Running well enough on Flat to believe he can have a say on belated second run over jumps.
5th	4 5th (4) (17/2 +6%) Gallant Lion		8.5 17/2(+6%)																																(4) Gallant Lion 17/2, Below form, too keen when beaten 10l in a handicap at Salisbury last time; effective at 2m with cut; plenty more needed back hurdling. Two runs over hurdles last February were underwhelming but Flat ability is respected.
6th	5 6th (5) (6/1 +63%) Good For You		6 6/1(+63%)																																(5) Good For You 6/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow latest; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; needs more. 0-7; each-way chance on the pick of his efforts but others preferred.
7th	11 7th (11) (80/1 -567%) Backer Bilk		80 80/1(-567%)																																(11) Backer Bilk 80/1, Again below form well beaten in a handicap at Southwell latest; hard to recommend on hurdles debut. 1m2f winner 14 months ago; has always operated at a modest level.
8th	13 8th (13) (125/1 -25%) Hellion		125 125/1(-25%)																																(13) Hellion 125/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Wetherby latest; since undergone a wind op; stamina and attitude a worry over hurdles. Third in two Flat races for Brian Meehan; shown nothing so far over hurdles; had wind op.
9th	1 9th (1) (66/1 -100%) Alex The Great		66 66/1(-100%)																																(1) Alex The Great 66/1, Again ran to a poor level beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; trainer in form but looks regressive and all to do on hurdles debut. High-mileage three-time Flat winner who is now limited in that scene.
14	14 |U| (14) (300/1 -200%) Dinkys Rose		300 300/1(-200%)																																(14) Dinkys Rose 300/1, Poor hurdles debut when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow most recent; hard to make a case for. Beaten 49l on bumper debut and 29l in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow.
10th	12 10th (12) (80/1 -60%) Bowling Shane		80 80/1(-60%)																																(12) Bowling Shane 80/1, Paid price for trying to go with winner when down the field in a novice hurdle at Chepstow most recent; may need more time over hurdles. Limited in four Flat runs and tailed off in both his runs over hurdles.
11th	6 11th (6) (200/1 -100%) Hopjes		200 200/1(-100%)																																(6) Hopjes 200/1, Below form tried in a visor beaten 6l in a classified race at Southwell last time; plenty to prove back hurdling. Two non-completions over hurdles; placed on the AW last month but at a very modest level.
3	3 |RO| (3) (15/8 +6%) Fidendum		1.875 15/8(+6%)																																(3) Fidendum 15/8, Bit keen but confirmed debut level when second beaten 3l in a novice hurdle at Market Rasen latest; off a long absence; effective at 2m on a sound surface; can go well again. Latest second reads very well; market confidence would be welcomed after so long out.

It could be worth chancing the returning FIDENDUM. The son of Passing Glance found only recent Aintree winner Wellington Arch too strong at Market Rasen 408 days ago and a similar performance may suffice. Crystal Days and Gallant Lion are others of interest, with the former feared most as she performed well at Catterick two starts ago and drops in class following her latest Kelso no-show.

The mare CRYSTAL DAYS has shown a fair level of ability and is downgraded following a stiff task last time. Fidendum is a danger.

1	2 1st (2) (12/1 +0%) Numitor		12 12/1(+0%)																																(2) Numitor 12/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Haydock latest; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on any; back below last winning mark but struggling this term. Very well handicapped but has become a law unto himself and is wickedly hard to predict.
2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 +20%) Coastguard Station		8 8/1(+20%)																																(3) Coastguard Station 8/1, Outpaced, never threatened, needed run when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Newbury last time; effective 2m-2m4f, needs sound surface; has to be played late, needs more. Likes good ground; back at the right level after tough tasks at Ascot and Newbury.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/1 -43%) Insurrection		5 5/1(-43%)																																(1) Insurrection 5/1, Didn't stay when down the field in a handicap chase at Cheltenham most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective 2m-2m4f, likes a sound surface; unreliable of late. 3m2f too far last time; can look a hard ride so the cheekpieces could be significant.
4	5 4th (5) (7/4 +0%) Sherborne		1.75 7/4(+0%)																																(5) Sherborne 7/4, Went clear, did it cosily, improved suited by positive ride when landing a handicap by 24l off a 8lb lower mark at Ascot last time; effective 2m4f-2m6f, acts on any; back in form this year and might land hat-trick despite new higher mark. The Ascot race fell apart and he's 8lb higher; does arrive with his tail up, however.
4	4 |F| (4) (13/8 +7%) Black Hawk Eagle		1.625 13/8(+7%)																																(4) Black Hawk Eagle 13/8, Improved down in class under positive ride, better jumping proving decisive when landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Chepstow last time; effective 2m-2m2f, wants decent ground ideally; in decent form, can go well again. Only his fourth start as a chaser when too strong for two rivals over 2m at Chepstow.

The hat-trick seeking SHERBORNE appears to have turned a corner of late and he's difficult to oppose in his current mood. Joe Tizzard's inmate arrives on the back of a 24-length romp at Ascot and an 8lb higher might doesn't appear excessive. Black Hawk Eagle made the most of a small-field affair over 2m at Chepstow last month, but he is far from certain to stay this longer distance. With that in mind, a bigger threat may emerge from Coastguard Station, who is only 2lb above his Market Rasen triumph in September.

A trappy race. BLACK HAWK EAGLE (nap) is the youngest contender and probably the one with the most upside now he's raised in distance.

Bleak spell before something of an upturn at Chepstow (extended 2m3f) two weeks ago.

3	2 3rd (2) (10/11 +67%) Court In A Storm		0.909091 10/11(+67%)																																(2) Court In A Storm 10/11, Too much to do, flattened out after late error, needed run when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Exeter latest; trainer in form; effective 2m-3m, acts on good ground; fair mark on novice form. Good ground for all seven races; ran creditably in 3m/2m7f handicaps on last two outings.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 -54%) Grangeclare Diego		10 10/1(-54%)																																(6) Grangeclare Diego 10/1, Taken on up front and made too much use of comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen last time; probably stays 3m, acts on good; mark stiff enough. Won at Market Rasen (2m7f, good) in March 2025; heavy defeats in his only two runs since.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 -86%) I'm A Starman		6.5 13/2(-86%)																																(4) I'm A Starman 13/2, Returned to form on softer ground beaten 3/4l off this mark at Warwick last time; returning from a break; effective 3m on soft and good to firm; handicapper probably has him. Four-timer last April-June; very in and out since and he's now a 13yo; off since November.

I'M A STARMAN is one of two course winners in this race and he makes plenty of appeal on his return to action. Callum Pritchard keeps the ride claiming a valuable 3lb and it was a really encouraging performance at Warwick when he signed off his 2025 campaign with a close-up fourth. He can get the better of Court In A Storm and Gold For Alec.

This looks tricky but COURT IN A STORM has a creditable recent effort to his name and has nothing to prove if it's good ground.

Probably his best run yet when runner-up at Kempton, finishing just ahead of Diyaken.
2	6 2nd (6) (13/2 -63%) Sun Art		6.5 13/2(-63%)																																(6) Sun Art 13/2, Mistakes, again below hurdle form up in trip when 13l third in a handicap chase at Ludlow most recent run; effective around 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; capable back hurdling. Jumping has been an issue in his two runs over fences; novice winner in this sphere.
3	8 3rd (8) (16/5 +20%) Red Rubio		3.2 16/5(+20%)																																(8) Red Rubio 16/5, Confirmed hurdles debut promise when fourth beaten 11l in a maiden hurdle at Huntingdon latest; effective around 2m on a sound surface; more to come now handicapping although further should suit ideally. He's not the easiest to weigh up, but goes handicapping at a modest level here.
4	4 4th (4) (14/1 +44%) Benvoy		14 14/1(+44%)																																(4) Benvoy 14/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Exeter latest; cheekpieces first time; effective 2m on good to soft and good; inconsistent. Hard to predict and another change of headgear is tried; risky.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/1 -13%) Phoenix Risen		9 9/1(-13%)																																(9) Phoenix Risen 9/1, Every chance, ran to form when fifth beaten 13l off 108 last time, 2lb lower here; effective 2m, acts on any ground; consistent. This might not be quite so demanding as the Exeter race he contested last time.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/1 -64%) Diyaken		9 9/1(-64%)																																(1) Diyaken 9/1, Ran to form, just flattening out late back from break, reported to have bled beaten 3l off this mark at Kempton last time; effective 2m-2m2f on heavy and good to soft; looked promising but clearly had issues. Returning from 1221 days off when finishing right behind Wild Goose at Kempton.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 -133%) Grey Skies		28 28/1(-133%)																																(7) Grey Skies 28/1, Unsuited by rain softened ground when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle last time; returning from a break; effective around 2m-2m4f, acts on good; bounce back needed. Form dipped in last two races, at Cheltenham then Carlisle where he should have run better.
8th	5 8th (5) (8/1 -14%) Fight My Fire		8 8/1(-14%)																																(5) Fight My Fire 8/1, Ran to form, just tiring late up in trip when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good to soft and good; in good form, mark demands more. It wasn't a bad run off 2lb higher here last time; shouldn't be far away.

Left Gordon Elliott cheaply and twice pulled up since returning from his long absence.

WILD GOOSE won impressively at Ludlow in December and put a lacklustre Kempton effort behind him when finishing a solid second there last time. He's in good enough nick to expect another bold showing here, with the unexposed Diyaken the main danger following his latest third behind the selection in that aforementioned Kempton race. Red Rubio is noted as well.

Chasing hasn't worked out for SUN ART and he could be interesting back over hurdles off what looks a manageable mark.

Hung left-handed in both his races but clearly has the ability to have a major say.

Too green to do himself justice when beaten 23l at Southwell (soft; 25-1); can improve.

OYKEL BRIDGE should be up to winning a race like this. He's posted two solid efforts so far finishing third at Warwick and Haydock and, with Thomas Bellamy taking over in the plate, this could be the time to catch him. My Mate Aj boasts a similar profile and should be bang there for a top yard, while Hercules Honour is a newcomer to note.

This doesn't look a strong bumper. OYKEL BRIDGE and My Mate AJ bring the best form. Alan King's runner gets the nod.

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.
