In cracking form new trainer Ivan Furtado this month, including winning a pair of classified events, latterly over C&D last Saturday. Looks well treated back in a handicap. Leading claims.

Mercurius Power (G)
[TP]
C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Southwell (1m) 14 days ago, suited by way race developed.

Trais Fluors (G)
This veteran landed a fourth C&D success when edging out Pallas Lord (Springbok third) over C&D on New Year's Day. 11/1, respectable fourth of 11 over 7f here since. Enters calculations.

Springbok (G)
Good 1¼ lengths third of 11 to Trais Fluors over C&D on New Year's 30 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Not discounted.

Annandale (G)
C&D winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. 7/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at this course (12.5f) 9 days ago. Significantly back down in trip.

Wyvern (G)
[P]
C&D winner in December. Creditable third of 12 to Aisling Oscar over 7f here 9 days ago. That is solid form and he should go well again, particularly now back at 1m.

Dream Illusion (F)

Pallas Lord (G)
[T]
Five-time C&D winner. Went down narrowly to Trais Fluors over 7f here on New Year's Day and fair third back here (7f again) since. Likely to figure again.

Volenti (G)
Four-time C&D winner, including this race last year, but below par last twice, including behind a few of these rivals over C&D on New Year's Day. Well handicapped again but others arrive with more pressing claims.
