Runners
| Pos | No. | Dr | Horse | Jockey | Trainer | Age | Wgt | Best decimal odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8th | 1 | 5 |
Ash Wednesday (G)
[T]
Four-time C&D winner. Six wins from 19 Flat runs. Six wins from 10 runs last year. 12/1, fifteenth of 22 in handicap at York (7f, good) when last seen in July. Good strike rate on the AW (6-10) and will be a threat if ready to roll.

Marco Ghiani | H Main | 5 | 60.8 kg |

| 7th | 2 | 2 |
He's A Gentleman (G)
[V]
Three-time C&D winner, the latest registered in October. Ninth of 12 in handicap (10/3) back here 30 days ago, not ideally placed. Others preferred.

Jason Hart | H Palmer | 7 | 60.8 kg |

| 5th | 3 | 3 |
Lodge (F)
Twice-raced winner. Second of 7 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to soft, 5/6), making effort earlier than ideal. Off 140 days ahead of this handicap debut but she's open to progress and is very much of interest.

Billy Loughnane | B J Meehan | 4 | 60.3 kg |

Star Of Mali (G)
FAV
Winner at Southwell in October. Below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 16/5) 59 days ago, not ideally placed. Expected to be bang there.

R Havlin | J Tate | 4 | 59.9 kg |

11/4

| 2nd | 5 | 9 |
Arantes Nascimento (G)
Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/4, good second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 17 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Should give another good account.
|
S M Levey | M J Attwater | 5 | 59.4 kg |
5.50
9/2

| 9th | 6 | 7 |
Chifa (G)
13/8, won 7-runner handicap at this C&D 17 days ago, driven out. That was his seventh C&D success and while this is tougher up 3 lb, he's impossible to discount.
|
Callum Shepherd | E De Giles | 9 | 59.4 kg |
9.50
17/2
|
| 4th | 7 | 8 |
Beauty Choice (G)
C&D winner. 25/1, tenth of 12 in handicap back over this C&D 30 days ago. Others are more persuasive.

Joanna Mason | M & D Easterby | 9 | 59.4 kg |

| 1st | 8 | 1 |
Vince Lombardi (G)
[T]
Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in November. 9/4, fifth of 8 in handicap back there (6.1f) 31 days ago. Perhaps a shade too high in the weights for now.
|
D Swift | S Spencer | 7 | 59 kg |

| 6th | 9 | 6 |
Anthropologist (G)
[P]
Blinkered for 1st time, eleventh of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Kempton (7f) 89 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Johnston and cheekpieces back on. Others make more appeal.

Dylan Hogan | M Herrington | 4 | 59 kg |

Betting forecast: Star Of Mali (11/4), Ash Wednesday (7/2), Arantes Nascimento (9/2), He's A Gentleman (13/2), Lodge (8/1), Chifa (17/2), Vince Lombardi (16/1), Beauty Choice (16/1), Anthropologist (28/1)
