|
7/2 |
Masqool
Front-runner who has battled well to score at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in his last two runs; up another 3lb but he remains well treated on old form and has good strike-rate of 10-49 on AW; key player.

- Bearaway
- Paddy Bradley / S Pearce

5/1 |
Bearaway
Back from a break for new yard last month and he landed a gamble with a comfortable win over C&D; that was his first success since October 2022 but a 4lb rise looks fair and he's a major player again if he can back that up.

- Crafter
- Billy Loughnane / D M Loughnane

5/1 |
Crafter
In good form over C&D towards the end of last year including two seconds and a win; didn't fire behind Masqool at Wolverhampton last Saturday but he still looks on a workable mark and has claims if this sets up for his closing style.

Birthday Angel
Showed clear promise in his qualifying runs but soundly beaten in two handicaps (1m2f/1m4f) for Archie Watson and he's not progressed in three hurdle runs for current yard; record now stands at 0-8 and he has something to prove back on the Flat.

- Fior Di Bosco
- Cieren Fallon / W J Haggas

12/1 |
Fior Di Bosco
Well-bred filly, who showed some promise in novice events but she's weakened in both her handicaps and was tailed off at Newcastle (1m) last month; may have needed that after a break but she needs a transformation on this step back up in trip; tongue-tie added.

- Hector Crouch / M L W Bell

10/3 |
Time Tested
Record of 1212 since moving out of maiden/novice company and his latest second was in a handicap here (1m) in September; 3lb higher on his return but he's open to more progress on this step back up in trip; interesting contender.

- S M Levey / T Ward

Cloud Free
Won at Chelmsford (1m) for Michael Bell in October but he was held in fifth there in final run in the autumn; changed hands for 12,000gns since; only 2lb higher than for his win but he has form figures of 47896 beyond 1m and looks opposable on stable debut.

- Jason Watson / T Faulkner

20/1 |
Prince Ali
Bounced back with a 16-1 win at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in September, but he was only seventh of nine on his return visit last month; remains well handicapped on old form but he's hard to predict and comes with risks attached.
|

- Mc'ted
- Alice Bond / J Parr

33/1 |
Mc'ted
Won four times last year (AW/turf) but he ended 2024 with a laboured effort at Chelmsford (1m2f); now only 1lb higher than for his last success but has a bit to prove after that last run.

- Arenas Del Tiempo
- Callum Hutchinson / J & S Best

20/1 |
Arenas Del Tiempo
Made some late headway when respectable sixth behind Bearaway over C&D last month but that took his AW record to 0-17 and his last turf win was in 2021; down the list.

- Uzincso
- L Morris / J Butler

Uzincso
Creditable third behind Bearaway over C&D last month but he has a patchy profile and has not won since July 2022; others are preferred.
