Sterling Knight
Enjoying a new lease of life as a miler, winning at Newmarket last summer and adding a good Chelmsford handicap to his tally five weeks ago; still feasibly treated up 2lb.

Brasil Power
Well beaten in two 7f handicaps this winter; stays this longer trip but he needs to get back on track to take a competitive race such as this.

Helm Rock
Took advantage of his drop in the weights when comfortably seeing off ten rivals at Southwell in November; unable to land a blow at Kempton next time but still of interest from a handicapping perspective.

Kalamunda
Progressive handicapper on AW, winning five times before being found out by a step up in class the last twice; latest Kempton run was still a solid effort, however, travelling well and doing best of the runners coming from midfield; won on his only other visit here; not ruled out.

Eagle Day
Win twice at Wolverhampton last month (9.5f) and ran to a similar level when fourth of 16 in his hat-trick bid at Chelmsford last week; shouldn't be far away with a repeat.

Robbo
7f maiden win on Polytrack last April; went close at Kempton (7f) in October on his only other AW start; has since left Charles Hills (same owners) and remains of interest on AW, especially over this new trip; stall 12 dents confidence this time though.

- Invincible Aura
- Marco Ghiani / M Botti

Invincible Aura
Better on AW than turf and he recorded his third win from eight AW starts with a comfortable C&D win nine days ago; 4lb rise in a deeper race could find him out.

Rhythm N Rock
Still seeking a first handicap success but he's well treated on the form he was showing in early 2024; less convincing since September, however, and others appeal more.

- Callum Shepherd / C Johnston

Urban Sprawl
Five wins on turf but 0-11 on AW; last week's third of 16 at Chelmsford offers hope he can right that wrong soon; respected despite wide stall.

- Dembe
- Paddy Bradley / S Pearce

Dembe
His two wins for Simon Pearce have come at Kempton but he's fully effective at this track too; only fourth off this mark at Southwell three weeks ago and possible he's a shade high in the weights for now.

Orbaan
Veteran handicapper who showed a fire still burned when seeing off 16 rivals to win the Carlisle Bell last June; 0-10 on AW and 3l behind Invincible Aura here nine days ago.

- T E Whelan / Harry Charlton

4/1 |
So Quiet
7f novice win at Kempton last March; yet to win a handicap but there have been some hard luck stories along the way; has to prove his stamina for a mile but there is encouragement for it on the dam's side of his pedigree; perhaps not one to make continued excuses for but this mark is surely in range if he gets a smooth run through.
