Mariner
No win in his first 16 starts under rules but has landed two of his last four, the latest at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 13 days ago; stays this far and a solid contender up 3lb.

Poet's Dawn
Winner of ten races over the years including one over C&D; 1lb lower than when successful at Carlisle (1m1f, soft) last August, but not sure he comes into this race in good enough form to take advantage.

Eeetee
Well treated on his form from this time two years ago, but losing run up to 17 (12 for this yard) despite a falling mark; others more convincing.

14/1 |
Steps In Time
Placed in all three starts over 1m-9.5f on the AW late last year; makes his handicap/turf debut after five months off, but no reason why he shouldn't act on grass; market support would be interesting.

Dubawi Time
Two wins in 2024, the latest at Yarmouth (1m2f, soft) in October; has run well on good to firm and worth market check back from 206 days off.

Stipulation
0-5; ran well a couple of times on the AW late last year, but not so good at Lingfield (1m2f) in January; cheekpieces given a go back from four months off, but he still has enough to prove under the conditions.

Rainwater
1-19, the win coming at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in November; continued to run well afterwards, but his last two efforts back on turf leave plenty to be desired.

Bay Dream Believer
Won twice last August, the latest over C&D (good) off this mark; has run well in both starts since returning last month and drying ground wouldn't be an issue; major player.

Wait And Hope
0-13 since his successful handicap debut from 12lb higher for Karl Burke at Kempton (1m, AW) early last year; little in three starts since returning in March and drying ground would pose another question.
