Fravanco (G)
FAV
Successful at Kempton from 1 lb lower in 2024. Runner-up twice at this track during the summer and fit from a spell hurdling (displayed aptitude in face of stiff tasks). This is a more suitable assignment.

Knight Of Magic (G)
[HT]
Won 3 of last 5, gaining handicap breakthrough in 10-runner contest at Wolverhampton (13/8F) over 14f last week. No easy ride (pulls hard) but partnered by very experienced amateur and one for the shortlist under a penalty.

| 11th | 3 | 8 |
Versatile (G)
[V1]
Ninth of 11 over C&D 15 days ago, always behind having been typically slowly away following 3 months off. First-time visor applied.
|
3-43 | Mr E Cagney | M J Attwater | 5 | 69.9 kg |

| 3rd | 4 | 6 |
Dynamite Defense (G)
Modest Flat winner in Ireland for Denis Hogan but below that level over hurdles for current yard. Returns after 189 days off and no surprise he's up in trip.
|
6675-6U | Mr Josh Myers | O Murphy | 5 | 69.4 kg |

| 2nd | 5 | 10 |
Charles Morin (G)
In cheekpieces, made the frame on all 3 starts (on turf) at up to 2m in 2025. Looked rusty when fourth of 9 over inadequate trip 27 days ago and equipment again left off here.
|
6480U/4- | Miss Madison Martin | P Phelan | 5 | 68.9 kg |

| 8th | 7 | 2 |
Starfighter (G)
Wolverhampton regular who arrives on the back of a pair of runner-up efforts in classified races there, albeit failing to land the odds on second one 16 days ago. On a good mark returned to handicap company.
|
75-8228 | Mr Jack Loughnane | D M Loughnane | 10 | 68.5 kg |

Marion's Boy (G)
[VT]
Winless for the yard and looked to be merely going through the motions at Chelmsford last time.
|
000-435 | Miss Megan Wingrove | D Wingrove | 9 | 67.1 kg |

| 6th | 9 | 7 |
Summer Evening (F)
[T1P]
In first-time cheekpieces, ran best race when runner-up in a 1m handicap here in January. Respectable efforts both starts since but stamina very much to prove back at this trip.
|
356049 | Miss Louise Chance | D Flood | 4 | 66.7 kg |

| 9th | 10 | 5 |
Broad Appeal (G)
Veteran on a long losing run, sixth of 12 in handicap at Leicester (80/1) in October on return from a 20-month absence.

| 1st | 11 | 1 |
Beaune (G)
[P]
Maiden who had been in good order prior to finishing sixth of 9 in handicap run in testing conditions at Ffos Las in September. Off since but returns in a lower grade.

Mary Rose (F)

Limited impact so far and cheekpieces now called for.
