Tyger Bay (G)
[BT]
Five-time C&D winner who ran a cracker in a deep race for the grade when second of 14 at Chelmsford (14/1) in December. Has to be respected back in less exacting company.

Jack Gilligan | C Allen | 9 | 61.2 kg |

Combustion (G)
FAV
Thrived last winter and stepped up on comeback run to resume winning ways at Lingfield (6f) in January. Followed up in cosy fashion back there last time but now 8 lb higher in a slightly stronger race.

Joey Haynes | C Banham | 5 | 60.3 kg |

| 5th | 3 | 7 |
Em Four (G)
Returned to winning ways at Chelmsford (6f) in January, doing well to overcome early interference. Mixed bag since, a respectable third at Southwell most recently. 7-lb claimer now back in the saddle.

C J Whiteley | J A Osborne | 4 | 60.3 kg |

| 4th | 4 | 5 |
Invincible Speed (G)
Showed the benefit of a recent outing to record a first success since the previous spring at Lingfield (5/2) in January. Nudged up 3 lb but remains favourably treated on old form.

Paddy Bradley | D M Loughnane | 5 | 60.3 kg |

Serenity Dream (G)
[P]
Returned to form in refitted headgear to record a second win at this track in January, suited by how the race developed. Unable to sustain effort at Lingfield (7f) since, however.

Jack Doughty | A W Carroll | 5 | 59.4 kg |

Jesse Luc (G)
[PT]
Had fantastic 2025, winning 6 times, and has shaped well both starts back from a 4-month break, fifth in 11-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f) on latest after refusing to settle. Has to be taken seriously.
|
Callum Shepherd | M Murphy | 6 | 59 kg |
3.75
11/4
|
| 6th | 7 | 3 |
Distant Rumble (G)
Winless in 8 runs since scoring at Windsor last April, though is best not judged on his latest start at Lingfield having found the drop to the minimum trip against him.

Cieren Fallon | R A Teal | 4 | 57.6 kg |

Betting forecast: Combustion (13/8), Jesse Luc (11/4), Serenity Dream (4/1), Em Four (15/2), Tyger Bay (14/1), Invincible Speed (16/1), Distant Rumble (20/1)
