Selection (F)
[P1]
Consistent all-weather performer who won over C&D last October. Good second of 11 in a handicap at Southwell 25 days ago, chasing home Mr Nugget who she reopposes on 3 lb better terms here. First-time cheekpieces applied and should once mo…

Alpha Capture (G)
A winner in Ireland for Willie Mullins in 2024 and shaped as if in good form when fourth of 18 in a handicap at Galway when last seen in August. Returns from 231 days off starting out for a new yard so may be best watched back down in trip…

Mr Nugget (G)
In excellent form this year with 3 wins from last 5 starts, also turned in very good second of 6 in a handicap at Wolverhampton 14 days ago, doing well from the rear in a higher grade than this. Tries this track for the first time but is s…

Criminal Shore (G)
[V]
Recorded sole win over this trip at Ripon in April. Made frame both starts this year, but seemingly having every chance and may have to settle for a minor role once more.

Harswell Ruby (F)
Consistent in 2025 prior to blip here on final outing. Not seen since and blinkers removed but she turned in an excellent reappearance effort last year so could well bounce back on return from 4 months off.

Barry's Boy (G)
FAV
Done well since having a breathing operation, running creditably when second of 7 at Wolverhampton as favourite in December. Should be in the mix if returning from 96 days off proves no hindrance.

Tasever (G)
[P]
Six-time course winner, including a handicap over C&D 39 days ago. Third of 7 in a handicap over 7f here 15 days ago and can continue in good heart back up in trip.

Boubyan (G)
[P]
Patchy form since joining this yard but returned to form to win a muddling event here over 1¼m 16 days ago. Back down in trip, which may suit given his background over shorter, but he's not one to take too short a price about.

Hostelry (M)
[P]
Enjoyed profitable 2025, winning 5 times on turf before going over the top towards the end of the season. Yet to win on all-weather and this looks a likely pipe-opener.

Concert Boy (G)
[B]
Hardly knows how to run a bad race, making the frame for a twelfth time from 14 starts this all-weather season when very close second of 11 in a handicap here over 7f 9 days ago. Faced with a deeper contest here, however.

Lessay (G)

Being kept busy this year but generally on the downgrade and probably needs lesser races than this, while all his wins have come at short of this trip.
