Jaffa Cake (G)
Second on bumper debut last March. Hasn't really managed to build on that over hurdles, handed a stiff-opening mark and he dropped away before home turn when pulled up at Southwell (2½m) 4 weeks ago. Others much more appealing.

Star Of Diamonds (G)
[P1]
Irish point winner but more miss than hit under Rules so far, running poorly switched back to this sphere when last of 7 in handicap at Wincanton (21f) 32 days ago. Has it to prove with cheekpieces now reached for.

Carlton (G)
[V]
Prolific dual-purpose performer who was fit from the Flat and ran out a convincing winner over further here 7 days ago. Promises to take some stopping under a penalty on that evidence.

Western Harmony (G)
FAV
Irish point winner who showed promise in bumpers and wasn't beaten far in a small-field novice at Fontwell over this trip last winter. Folded tamely on his handicap debut/final run for Nicky Henderson at Wincanton 13 months ago but has joi…

Ikigai Star (G)
[P]
Back to winning ways over C&D in May (now 2-2 here) but didn't kick on under either code thereafter, well held in a first-time visor (replaced by usual cheekpieces now) at Kempton in October. Had breathing operation ahead of return. Could …

Supreme Shot (G)
Brought along steadily in maiden/novice hurdles during the winter and possible he was unsuited by the drop back to around 2m when a hollow third on handicap debut at Newcastle 25 days ago. This test looks more suitable but may be best guid…

Snapius (G)
[V]
Ended long losing run at Lingfield (2m) in December 2024. Winless since but his mark reflects that and he's posted respectable efforts on each of his last 2 starts at around 2m. However, he's not sure to stay this far and his yard look to …
