Edergole's Gift (M)
[PT]
Back to best in first-time cheekpieces when fast-finishing second of 9 at Lingfield (20/1) in January. Went without headgear when last of 10 at this C&D (7/2) 23 days ago and it's straight back on for this run.

Sanditon (G)
[P]
Deservedly got off the mark in C&D handicap (8 ran, 8/1) 13 days ago. Up only 1 lb and has 5-lb claimer taking the ride, so looks of obvious interest.

Jack Callan | C Johnston | 4 | 61.2 kg |

Prefer The Sister (M)
[T1]
It's now 13 starts since her last win, though she was placed twice in the autumn. Might have needed the run after 10-week break when tenth of 11 at Kempton (11/1) 17 days ago but her temperament remains a concern.

Jonny Peate | M Crawley | 6 | 60.8 kg |

Adelaide Bay (G)
Three-time winner in the first half of 2025 for Jane Chapple-Hyam but offered nothing in 5 starts for Thomas Faulkner. Lots to prove on the back of another stable switch.

S Donohoe | Craig Lidster | 4 | 60.8 kg |

Hint Of The Jungle (G)
FAV
[HT]
Runner-up twice this winter before going one better at Southwell (7f) 10 days ago. 3 lb rise looks fair and he should go well again.

Rob Hornby | M Murphy | 5 | 60.8 kg |

| 3rd | 6 | 6 |
Drafted (G)
Landed a gamble when off the mark at Dundalk (7f) in October. Shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 11 there (11/8F) next time and is worth betting check having since left Charles Byrnes.

Lillie Dingle | Charlie Pike | 6 | 60.3 kg |

Homme De Fer (G)
Won twice in December and has remained in good form, most recently third of 9 at Wolverhampton (13/8F) 25 days ago.

Tomorrow Day (G)
[P]
Badly out of sorts and seemed to take little interest when last of 12 at Kempton (11/1) when last seen in November. Breathing operation since needs to have had a major effect.

Tom Kiely-Marshall | M D I Usher | 5 | 56.7 kg |

Vitalline (G)
[PT]
Won at Kempton in December and shaped as if back in form when fifth of 9 in a classified event at Lingfield (9/2) 23 days ago, finishing with running left having lacked room in the straight. Player back in a handicap.
