Longlai
Solid AW record and better than his last two form figures in 2024 might suggest (met trouble last time); this is a drop in grade and he's capable of going well if fully primed after 11 weeks off.

Helm Rock
Back to winning ways at Southwell (1m) in November; best run since when close third over 9.4f at Wolverhampton ten days ago; the drop back to 1m looks ideal and Billy Loughnane takes the ride so there are reasons to be very hopeful from the same mark; also has first-time blinkers in place of cheekpieces.

Tempus
In-frame efforts at Wolverhampton and Newcastle in recent weeks show this 9yo is in reasonable form but his losing run goes back to August 2022.

Urban Lion
Won a C&D maiden last summer on sole AW start; advanced his RPRs in defeat in the autumn and this low-mileage 4yo is interesting back on AW after nearly five months off, particularly if the betting speaks for him.

Court Of Session
Ended his time with the Crisfords with a disappointing effort and he has finished well beaten at huge odds in two runs for his new stable; can only watch.

High Point
Improved for cheekpieces when scoring over 1m2f in the mud at Salisbury in October; sold out of Eve Johnson Houghton's stable for 30,000gns later that month; the cheekpieces are left off by new yard; betting perhaps the best guide to expectations back down in trip after five months off.

Charming Whisper
Two 1m turf wins last summer and mostly creditable efforts in defeat subsequently, including C&D; much depends on whether he's ready to roll after 113 days off.

Shimmering Spin
Placed on first two starts, latterly over C&D; reported to have hung left handed throughout when well beaten over 1m2f at Goodwood final start; has had wind surgery ahead of this handicap debut after six months off; one to note in the market.
