| 1st | 1 | 5 |
Anthropologist (G)
[P]
Course winner in November 2024 and scored on turf at Ayr last summer. Good head second of 11 to Camera Shy in a handicap at Southwell (7f) 13 days ago and he's one for the shortlist.

Dylan Hogan | M Herrington | 4 | 61.2 kg |

Rich Rhythm (G)
[P]
Went close off this mark at Doncaster last summer but was a below-par sixth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (7f, heavy) when last seen in October. Others preferred.

Cam Hardie | H Bethell | 7 | 60.8 kg |

| 10th | 3 | 12 |
Lord Capulet (G)
FAV
Recorded third success over this C&D last month. Winning run came to an end when third of 7 at Southwell (7f) 27 days ago but that was still a respectable effort and he can make his presence felt off the same mark.
|
Shane Gray | K A Ryan | 4 | 60.3 kg |
3
2/1
|
| 5th | 4 | 6 |
Novak (G)
C&D winner who finished a respectable sixth of 11 in a 6f handicap here 15 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.
|
Mohammed Tabti | I Jardine | 7 | 60.3 kg |
7
6/1
|
| 6th | 5 | 9 |
Bobby Joe Leg (G)
[V]
Veteran who has scored 10 times over this C&D over the years, including on 3 occasions in 2025. However, he trailed in 7½ lengths last of 11 to Camera Shy at Southwell (7f) recently and it's probably best to look elsewhere.
|
J P Sullivan | Mrs R Carr | 12 | 60.3 kg |

| 4th | 6 | 1 |
Phoenix Of Dreams (G)
[H]
Narrow winner of an 11-runner C&D handicap 15 days ago, just holding on. Nudged up just 2 lb and he has to be taken seriously.
|
Jason Hart | J & S Quinn | 5 | 59.9 kg |
5.50
9/2
|
| 2nd | 7 | 10 |
Travis (G)
Yet to strike on the all-weather but produced another respectable efforts on this surface when second in a C&D handicap on latest start in November, despite doing too much too soon. Place possibilities if raring to go following a break.
|
D Allan | G A Harker | 5 | 58.5 kg |
15
14/1
|
| 9th | 8 | 3 |
Brave Empire (G)
Losing run mounting up and while he was a solid third over 6f here off 6 lb higher in December, this 5-y-o needs to bounce back following a string of lesser efforts.
|
P Mulrennan | I Furtado | 5 | 58.5 kg |
15
14/1
|
| 7th | 9 | 4 |
Camera Shy (G)
[T]
Got on top close home in an 11-runner handicap at Southwell (7f) 13 days ago, narrowly getting the better of the re-opposing Anthropologist. 1 lb worse off with the latter now and it should again be close between them.

Daniel Muscutt | M Dods | 4 | 58.5 kg |

Penny Mountain (M)
Shed maiden tag in 6f handicap here on New Year's Day and has found just one too good on each of her last 2 starts in C&D handicaps for fillies. Looks vulnerable for win purposes.
|
Amie Waugh | Gary Rutherford | 5 | 54.9 kg |

Ignac Lamar (G)
Back to form when second over C&D in October but failed to build on that back here the following month and absent since.
