|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9th | 1 | 2 |
Spartan Fighter (G)
[V]
Veteran who has rolled back the years with 4 C&D wins already in 2026. Latest success came in 9-runner handicap (7/2) 4 days ago with a determined display, though it wasn't the strongest contest for the grade. 6 lb higher now.

Cam Hardie | A Brittain | 9 | 62.1 kg |

6/1

| 7th | 2 | 3 |
Pickersgill (F)
Lost her way with Sheila Lavery in Ireland but made a solid enough start here when fourth of 11 in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton (33/1) 19 days ago, dwelling but keeping on under pressure over 1f out. Back down in trip.
|
D Nolan | I Jardine | 4 | 61.2 kg |

9/1
|
| 3rd | 3 | 8 |
Raft Up (G)
[H]
More reliable than most at this level and has won 3 times at this C&D. Sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5/1) 58 days ago, shaping as if in good form but too lit up with hood left off. Hood back on which should help him settle better.
|
Rowan Scott | H Bethell | 5 | 61.2 kg |
7.50
13/2
|
| 4th | 4 | 1 |
Andalprofit (G)
Course and distance winner who gained first turf success at Redcar in early November but was too free attempting to follow up when eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (16/1) 85 days ago.
|
Alex Jary | N Tinkler | 4 | 60.8 kg |
23
22/1
|
| 5th | 5 | 4 |
Mayo County (M)
[P]
Third of 7 in handicap at Southwell (5/2) 22 days ago, running respectably though early keenness proved costly late on. Previous C&D winner and one to consider.
|
Tom Kiely-Marshall | Miss J A Camacho | 5 | 60.8 kg |
8
7/1
|
| 8th | 6 | 10 |
Rajstar (G)
Off the mark in handicap at this C&D (15/2) 10 days ago, leading over 1f out. Up 5 lb but has started from a lowly mark and could have more to offer.
|
Jason Hart | B Haslam | 4 | 59.9 kg |

7/1
|
| 10th | 7 | 6 |
Teardrops (G)
[BT]
Has found form at this venue with 3 C&D wins, most recently in January. Third of 8 at this C&D (7/4 fav) 10 days ago, not beaten far having raced keenly. Looks a strong contender.
|
George Wood | R Spencer | 4 | 59.9 kg |

10/1
|
| 6th | 8 | 7 |
Mersea (M)
Hasn't won since August and continues to struggle for form, seventh of 8 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 10 days ago. Others preferred.

Oliver Stammers | Grant Tuer | 6 | 58.5 kg |

Pit Boss (G)
FAV
[BT]
Finally broke through in handicap at this C&D (6/4 fav) 10 days ago, delivered at the right time under a patient ride to lead close home. Up 3 lb but doesn't strike as an obvious type to follow up.
|
Billy Garritty | L Bailey | 4 | 58.5 kg |
4.33
10/3
|
| 1st | 10 | 5 |
Yorkshire Glory (G)
Has enjoyed a fine AW season and won at this C&D in January before good third of 8 in handicap here (5/2) 10 days ago. Should remain competitive at this venue.

A Mullen | B Haslam | 5 | 56.7 kg |
