Madara (G)
A dual winner for Sophie Leech in 2023/24. Lightly campaigned subsequently but shaped well in Paddy Power/December Gold Cup in 2024 and given a considerate return from 13 months off when fifth of 6 at Wetherby (2m) at Christmas. Needs cons…

Arclight (M)
Course winner but isn't the easiest to catch right and came in last of 8 in handicap hurdle at Newbury (16.3f, good) 35 days ago. Reverts to chasing with lots more needed.

Issam (G)
FAV
[T]
Resumed with victory at Wetherby (19f) in November and progressed again when third at Ascot (19f) following month. Not at his best upped to 3m when sixth back at Ascot last time but a likely player now back in trip.

Petit Tonnerre (G)
[P]
Landed listed handicap at the Punchestown Festival last spring. On the downside, he's not the easiest to catch right and was beaten a long way on his return at Ascot in November.

Scarface (G)
[B]
Inconsistent sort who followed a good Ascot second in December by being pulled up there 16 days ago, labouring some way out. Lots more needed in a change of headgear.

Rightsotom (G)
[PT]
Fairly useful 19f hurdles winner. Yet to score in this sphere but running creditably when fell last in handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f, good) 35 days ago. One to consider off an easing mark.

Yes Indeed (G)
Won pair of handicap chases around 2m on joining Martin Keighley last spring but pulled up on hat-trick bid at Newton Abbot and could only manage a remote third at Chepstow 5 months later. Bit to prove back from another 113 days off (had w…
