Desert Halo (G)
Last season's second in Lingfield maiden remains a standout effort, and now switches to handicap hurdles following an underwhelming spell over fences.

Kotari (G)
Close third on latest hurdle start in December 2024 (ran creditably on Flat since) and while prospect of slowly-run race isn't ideal for keen sort returning from 4 months off/breathing operation, he has to enter calculations in a thin hand…

Freddie Mitchell | G & J Moore | 7 | 74.8 kg |

Golden Circet (G)
Fairly useful handicapper on Flat, winning twice in 2025. Not at that level in a trio of starts in this sphere over the winter but switch to handicapping should see him in a much better light.

Lord Of The Glance (G)
FAV
Maiden showed first form over hurdles when runner-up behind class-dropping stablemate on handicap bow at Fakenham in January. Looked far from straightforward that day but isn't fully exposed.

Pink 'n Purple (G)
Hinted at ability in a bumper, and while yet to show anything (other than an awkward head carriage) over hurdles, he could make more impact now tackling a low-grade handicap.

Ben Smith | J W Mullins | 4 | 65.8 kg |

Simon The Seagull (G)
[V1]
Maiden races from 5 lb out of the handicap and isn't one to rely on.
