Runners
| Pos | No. | Dr | Horse | Jockey | Trainer | Age | Wgt | Best decimal odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | 1 | 5 |
Charlie Darling (G)
Posted best effort for current yard when good third of 8 over C&D 26 days ago. 1 lb lower now and merits respect.
|
Sean Kirrane | A D Brown | 6 | 61.2 kg |
7
6/1
|
| 9th | 2 | 9 |
Payment Plan (G)
Dual C&D winner at the end of 2024 but didn't offer any short-term encouragement when remote seventh over C&D on his recent return from an 11-month absence. Could only consider if the betting suggests a much better showing is likely.
|
David Probert | J Butler | 6 | 61.2 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 8th | 3 | 10 |
Fashionelle (M)
[P]
Fourteen runs since last win in 2025. 18/1, 11 lengths sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (1¾m) 13 days ago. Others are more persuasive.
|
Gina Mangan | A Forbes | 7 | 60.8 kg |
6
5/1
|
| 10th | 4 | 11 |
Sullivan Bay (G)
[V]
Last of 7 over hurdles at Huntingdon 24 days ago but was runner-up on the Flat at Chelmsford and Lingfield prior to that.
|
Joe Leavy | J & S Best | 6 | 60.8 kg |
10
9/1
|
| 3rd | 5 | 3 |
Different Drum (G)
Improved over hurdles this season, culminating in victory at Carlisle 24 days ago. Second off 3 lb higher on the Flat last summer so there are reasons to be hopeful back on the level.
|
P Mulrennan | L Allan | 5 | 59.9 kg |
8.50
15/2
|
| 6th | 6 | 8 |
Colinski (G)
[V]
Down the field in 2 all-weather outings for new yard this spring. Back on the mark he defied at Lingfield (turf) last summer and worth a second look in the betting in a refitted visor.
|
Kaiya Fraser | R Menzies | 4 | 59 kg |

11/1

| 2nd | 7 | 4 |
Onlyriversrunfree (M)
[P]
5-y-o mare who hasn't much solid form but offered more hope with cheekpieces added (retained) when third of 12 in classified event at Lingfield (1½m) 34 days ago. Significantly up in trip now.
|
K T O'Neill | M McGrath | 5 | 58.5 kg |

|
| 4th | 8 | 6 |
Cold Henry (G)
Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Won over hurdles at Catterick (25f, good) in March but pulled up faced with a very different test at Hexham (heavy) since. Has a joint career-low mark back on the Flat.
|
Jonny Peate | Sara Ender | 7 | 58.5 kg |
11
10/1
|
| 5th | 9 | 2 |
Crystal Guard (G)
[B]
Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Wolverhampton (1¾m) on reappearance 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. May strip fitter for the run.
|
Lewis Edmunds | I Jardine | 8 | 58.1 kg |

28/1
|
| 11th | 10 | 7 |
Regal Glory (M)
FAV
[P]
One win from 37 starts and that was back in 2022. Has run with credit when reaching the frame over 1¾m at Wolverhampton and Catterick on her last 2 outings. Ought to be competitive again.
|
Connor Beasley | Roger Fell | 6 | 57.2 kg |
4.33
10/3
|
| 7th | 11 | 1 |
Apache Eagle (G)
[TP]
Arrives on the back of 2 placed efforts over 1¾m, latterly finishing second of 11 on Saturday. Another prominent showing is likely if coping with the quick turnaround.

Tom Kiely-Marshall | J Bedi | 5 | 57.2 kg |
