Moulin Booj (G)
At least as good as ever when winning a 7-runner handicap over 5f at this course 11 days ago. Had a bit in hand that day, but back up in trip now under a penalty and, though his wide draw isn't fatal given his running style, he'll need ple…

Valley Ofthe Kings (G)
[B]
A dual winner in 2025, including at this course. Looked well suited by the return to forcing tactics when second to a big improver at Kempton over 7f in February. Drop back in trip is no issue, but will likely need a career best if he's co…

Marching Mac (G)
[T]
Has won 7-times on turf, including twice in October, but yet to show the same level on the all-weather and is likely to need more respite from the handicapper before becoming of interest (0-9 from marks in the 80s).

Seraphim Angel (F)
Improved when winning a 6f handicap at Windsor last July for Tom Dascombe. Not seen since and, though new yard has enjoyed success with new recruits in the past, she still has to prove her effectiveness on an all-weather surface. Murphy a …

Arklow Lad (C)
FAV
[T]
Stepped up on previous efforts when winning comfortably at Chelmsford over 5f 22 days ago on debut for new connection. Up 7 lb and back up in trip, but his strength in the market that day was noteworthy, as was the time, and he very much …

Jason Watson | M Appleby | 4 | 60.3 kg |

| 7th | 6 | 12 |
Buccabay (G)
Won at Kempton in December but has been turned over at short odds twice since, most recently third of 7 at Kempton 16 days ago. Remains on a workable mark but has difficult draw to overcome.

Billy Loughnane | Eve Johnson Houghton | 6 | 59.9 kg |

Aberama Gold (G)
[V]
Returned to form in January with 3 consecutive thirds, but disappointing back at the scene of his latest win when only ninth of 12 at Southwell 28 days ago. Remains well treated on the pick of last year's efforts but vulnerable to improver…

Mark Winn | D O'Meara | 9 | 59.9 kg |

King Of Bears (G)
[B]
Scored over C&D in first-time blinkers in December on second run for current connections. Remains on a good mark but yard has mixed record with ones returning from a break, so any market support is likely to prove telling.

S D Bowen | Brian Toomey | 4 | 59.4 kg |

9/1
|
| 6th | 9 | 8 |
Papa Cocktail (G)
Won over C&D in January, but appeared to be to be undone by 5-lb rise for that success when only third of 8 here next time. Yard continues in good form but more is clearly needed to make an impact here.

J Mitchell | M Herrington | 7 | 59.4 kg |

|
| 4th | 10 | 6 |
Grant Wood (G)
Has looked as good as ever when recording back-to-back handicap wins at Newcastle over 6f last 2 starts. Remains well treated under 4-lb penalty and sure to make a bold bid for a hat-trick.

D Nolan | P T Midgley | 7 | 59.4 kg |

| 1st | 11 | 2 |
Dark Ace (G)
Has run consistently well in handicaps at Dundalk since winning a similar event at Navan in October, though left with a lot to do when third of 10 to Instant Appeal on latest outing. Returns from 93-day break, but has won off a 10-week abs…

| 9th | 12 | 11 |
Tennessee Gold (G)
Won 3 times in 2024 before struggling the following year. Now finds himself below last winning mark but wide draw is far from ideal and it's hard to know what to expect back at 6f.
