| 3rd | 1 | — |
Geryville (G)
[B]
Not the easiest to predict but was second in this last year and he made all in 9-runner C&D handicap (heavy) in January. Up 6 lb but still firmly in the mix if on his A-game again.

C O'Farrell | Micky Hammond | 10 | 77.1 kg |

No But I Will (G)
[V]
Not straightforward but largely in good form this season, winning at Cartmel (17f) in August and Fakenham (21f) in December. Only 2 lb higher here.

Liam Harrison | J S Smith | 9 | 74.4 kg |

Arthur's Quay (G)
[T]
Veteran who won at Newcastle in February 2025. Went close to another victory there in October but has performed no more than respectably when third on both outings since.
|
R P McLernon | B Haslam | 12 | 74.4 kg |

| 2nd | 4 | — |
William Cody (G)
[P]
Four-time chase winner who was as good as ever when runner-up at Southwell (soft) 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go back on. Sometimes finds less than looks likely, but has a fair bit going for him here.
|
Jack Andrews | Mrs P Sly | 9 | 73.9 kg |

| 1st | 5 | — |
Rath Gaul Hill (G)
[B1T]
Three-time chase winner but has been largely disappointing this season, finishing remote last of 4 at Newbury 18 days ago. First-time blinkers (which replace cheekpieces) need to help spark a revival.
|
S Bowen | S Drinkwater | 8 | 73 kg |

Clonakilty (G)
[PT]
A fairly useful chase scorer for Olly Murphy but he has offered little in 2 outings for new yard this winter.

Sean Quinlan | Lizzie Quinlan | 9 | 70.3 kg |

Empty Nest (G)
FAV
[T]
C&D winner who was back on form when runner-up at Newcastle and Doncaster in recent months but needs to shrug off a lesser effort here since.

Jamie Hamilton | M Walford | 8 | 64.4 kg |
