Recency Bias (G)
FAV
Very progressive form, looking like one who can make up for lost time for his good yard when returning from a year off to easily win a C&D novice in March. Never really going switched to a handicap at Wolverhampton last month but he remain…

Pressure's On (G)
Right back to his best this year, runner-up in a pair of 7f handicaps at Wolverhampton in March. Shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests when eighth of 22 at Doncaster (1m) 5 weeks ago and he rates a major player returned to t…

Beale Street (G)
Garnered a fourth course victory in 11-runner handicap here (6f) in March. Shaped as if amiss later that month and can quickly bounce back.

Gressington (G)
[B]
C&D winner in December but will need to shrug off a couple of poor efforts if he's to get involved. Returns from 3 months off.

William Dewhirst (G)
Prolific winner at this track over the winter of 2024/25 but has presumably had issues since, not beaten anywhere near so far as on return from a lengthy absence but still looking some way off being competitive here last month. Back up in …

The Green Man (G)
[TV]
Recorded three wins here last year, the latest over C&D in December. Knocking at the door in recent starts, throwing down a strong challenge when second of 14 over C&D 11 days ago. Fancied to be in the mix again.

Rich Rhythm (G)
[P]
Ran respectably after 6 months off when eighth of 11 over C&D 5 weeks ago. Has dropped back to his last winning mark but a place is probably the best he can hope for.

Ey Up Its Jazz (G)
Appreciates soft ground and won at Ayr and Thirsk across a largely positive 2025 campaign. Showed the benefit of a recent run when sixth of 22 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) 5 weeks ago and likely to be back to somewhere near his best her…

Blufferonthebus (M)
Successful at Carlisle last summer and, following a string of below par performances, she got back on track with 7f handicap wins at Musselburgh and over C&D in November. Shaped as if the run was needed at Beverley last month but others mo…
