Desert Cop (G)
Won minor event at Sakhir in early-2025. Placed twice there this year but generally below form otherwise. Should do better from this mark back in a handicap.

Layla Liz (F)
Lightly-raced for her age, winning 3 of her 5 starts, the latest in 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5f, 12/1) in March by ½ length from Nad Alshiba Green. Doesn't have the same benefit at the weights with that rival this time but her p…

Smart Vision (G)
[P]
A 3-time winner in 2025, the latest of which came in a handicap at Doncaster in October. Excuses when last of 10 in similar event (6/1) at Beverley (5f, good) 11 days ago, badly hampered over 1f out. Yard yet to have a winner this year and…

Nad Alshiba Green (F)
FAV
C&D winner last year. Well backed on first run since leaving Michael Appleby when ½-length second of 8 to Layla Liz in handicap (11/8) at Wolverhampton (5f) on return 27 days ago when not ideally placed. She's better off at the weights tha…

Master Of My Fate (G)
Has won twice at Southwell this year, including 6-runner handicap (9/2, 5f) 17 days ago. Has a better strike rate on the all-weather but has won on turf and can't be discounted.

Michaela's Boy (G)
Justified good support when scoring at Lingfield (5f) in January and went close over the same C&D later that month. Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford (5f, 4/1) in February. Eased in grade back on the turf.

Muker (G)
Successful twice in 2025, latest at Doncaster in July. Blew the start when last seen in September. Probably best watched on return.

Grandlad (G)
[T]
Won small-field events at Hamilton and Doncaster over 5f last August. Wasn't quite at his best after. Seems best when able to dominate and others make more appeal on return.

J Mitchell | James Horton | 5 | 56.7 kg |

| 4th | 9 | 6 |
Intervention (G)
Was kept busy last year and recorded 4 wins, including the Great St Wilfrid Handicap at Ripon (6f). 20/1, fourteenth of 16 in handicap over that C&D (good) 10 days ago. Has been given some help by the handicapper.

D Egan | M Appleby | 9 | 55.8 kg |

| 2nd | 10 | 2 |
Nogo's Dream (G)
[P]
Successful 3 times over 5f last year before his old quirks resurfaced. Has acquitted himself well both starts since returning from a break in February but others make more appeal all the same.
