4/1

Comment: Signed off his 3yo campaign with a Wolverhampton AW success in October and he returned from 170 days off to win at Thirsk in April (both 6f); sent off favourite for a 7f handicap at York's Dante meeting 16 days ago and ran creditably while shaping as though a return to 6f would suit; still not fully exposed.

Comment: Blinkers have helped this year, winning at Newcastle in January (6f) and going close at Kempton and Ascot since (last two runs for this new trainer); 3lb higher than for latest second but still commands respect.

2 tips

6/1

Comment: His form dipped on turf three weeks ago but he was in fine form on AW over the winter, winning twice at Lingfield and going close over C&D last month; perhaps a shade high in the weights for a race as competitive as this one.

9/1

Comment: Not a prolific winner but two of his successes have come over 6f on Polytrack and he ran as well as he ever has when second of 13 at Chester last month (7f, good); 1lb rise fair enough and he should make a bold bid back on the AW.

Comment: Six AW wins on his record, three of them at this track; solid third at Lingfield on Good Friday, on second run for this stable, and he's undergone wind surgery since; promising apprentice takes off 5lb and he's one to consider.

Comment: He's thrived since joining Ruth Carr, winning for the fifth time since August when getting the better of Monsieur Beaulieu over C&D last month; similar form when chasing home Rebel Path at Newmarket a fortnight ago; drawn wide but plenty to like otherwise.

Rebel Path

Jockey: Olivia Haines Trainer: Stuart Williams Age/Wt: 6/9-8 F: 435451 OR: 79

2 tips

14/1

Comment: Won twice over C&D through the winter and he produced his best effort for some time when readily seeing off eight rivals at Newmarket a fortnight ago for Olivia Haines; that effort was backed up by the Topspeed figure and, while he's not been missed with a 7lb rise, he remains of interest under these conditions.

1 tip

16/1

Comment: He has made giant strides this year, winning six times including three over C&D; hold-up style has ensured he's kept his nose ahead of the handicapper but he has been hit with a 6lb rise for his ready win here 24 days ago; now moves up a class but foolish to rule out further progress.

Farasi Lane

28/1

Comment: Handicapped to win, 3lb lower than when a close second in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton in March, and not always seen to best effect since; no surprise to see him run well but the return to 6f (first attempt since August 2020) and a wide draw temper enthusiasm.

Comment: Ended 2024 in good form and drew clear of others with a next-time-out winner when second on reappearance outing at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) five weeks ago; arguably fortunate to have escaped with just a 1lb nudge for that run and could quite plausibly have untapped potential over this new trip.

Comment: Looked promising when winning 1m2f Lingfield novice last summer but an unplaced favourite in all three subsequent handicaps, most recently when fourth of eight on seasonal debut at Lingfield (1m4f) in April; not written off just yet but has a point to prove and needs to learn to settle better.

Comment: Always in his comfort zone when making all and back to form at Newmarket (5f) two weeks ago; back up 5lb but historically well treated if the return to AW for the first time in two years doesn't throw him out (1-5 in this sphere, the win at Southwell as 3yo).

Comment: Strike-rate of 3-30 but it's rare for him to run poorly over 5f and he did win his only C&D start, in April; however, he's not nearly so well drawn this time and is on a career-high mark following a Windsor win.

Comment: A healthy AW strike-rate includes a wide-margin C&D win in March on first run here; carried that form back to turf next time and although he couldn't keep tabs on the principals behind Nogo's Dream at Windsor two weeks ago, another career best might well be on the way back on AW.

Comment: 0-3 on AW and well held in both 6f handicaps on sand two winters ago; he's improved since and was progressive over 5f on turf late last summer, but he can be slowly away, which he took to the next level at Ascot on penultimate start, and a low draw spells danger if that tendency resurfaces.

Comment: Two handicap wins as 2yo (6f, AW; 5f turf) but his mark shot up after a good Listed run later; that counted against him in 2024 and his good runs were intermittent; raced freely on yard debut at Pontefract (joint-favourite) last month, where the stiff finish took the sting out of him, and he now goes in a hood; too soon to pass judgement.

Jockey: Callum Shepherd Trainer: Charlie Johnston Age/Wt: 5/9-10 F: 146441 OR: 86

7/1

Comment: Tough 5yo who was close up at York before justifying market confidence in a small field at Lingfield (good to firm); if he can get himself into a prominent position from stall 12 then should run well despite the 5lb rise.

Comment: Won his first five starts on the AW which came at a cost mark-wise; has continued to run well without looking ahead of the handicapper; headgear tried for the first time.

Be Frank

Jockey: J Fanning Trainer: Ian Williams Age/Wt: 5/8-13 F: 877-1 OR: 75

12/1

Comment: Snapped a losing run with a good bit up his sleeve at Newmarket (7f) two weeks ago and could still be leniently treated off 5lb higher; could stay a mile but what is a worry is the form he's shown in three previous runs on the AW.

20/1

Comment: Won both his races last season and then gelded; only sixth of eight runners on his recent handicap debut (extended 1m) but that came after a lengthy break and Jim Crowley has a good strike-rate for the yard.

Cephalus

Jockey: T P Queally Trainer: Gary & Josh Moore Age/Wt: 6/9-6 F: 80-210 OR: 82

20/1

Comment: 0-9 on the grass but 10-25 on the AW which is some strike-rate; the last of those wins came at Southwell in February (1m) and he could never land a blow from off the pace at Lingfield; there should be a good pace on here and that would suit.

Jimmy Speaking

Jockey: Joe Leavy Trainer: Chris Dwyer Age/Wt: 4/9-1 F: 63-353 OR: 77

28/1

Comment: Two 6f wins include one here and he's now 1lb beneath last winning mark; came up short when strong in the market at Ascot last time (6f) and stepping up to 1m (0-4 over 7f) asks some searching questions.

Thyer

Jockey: Hollie Doyle Trainer: Marco Botti Age/Wt: 4/9-8 F: 15-002 OR: 84

Comment: Some good British form to his name before his struggles in Dubai; got back on track when second at Nottingham (extended 1m) having raced prominently in the first-time cheekpieces; possible player despite stall 14; non-runner.
