The Cursor (G)
FAV
Confirmed previous promise when making all in 5-runner 1½m novice at Doncaster in July, keeping on well. Looks on a lenient mark judged on that form (beat 3 rivals who now rated significantly higher) so he's an appealing candidate on first…

New York Minute (G)
[V]
Completed a hat-trick last autumn before a good second at Kempton (2m) in December. Came unstuck in a better race here next time but was soon back to form when third of 6 at Southwell last week and will benefit from this return to further.

Machete (G)
Justified favouritism with a strong finish here (1¼m) in December. Found run of good form halted over C&D on most recent outing but is the type bounce back quickly.

Resumed winning ways back in cheekpieces in decisive fashion over C&D last month but wasn't in the same form at Musselburgh since. Change of headgear.

Melinda (M)
Shaped well when fourth of 14 on his qualifying run in a 11f Carlisle maiden in September 2024. Well held on his Ayr handicap debut the following month but did land a juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh later that year. Market useful ahead of c…

Havachoc (G)
Completed a 1½m hat-trick with a lot to spare over C&D in February. Has held his form well in defeat subsequently but faces no easy task from 8 lb out of the weights here.
