Achnamara (G)
[P]
C&D winner who was successful twice during 2024/25, including from a 5 lb higher mark at Catterick. Not kicked on in this sphere subsequently though, and merely ticking over on the Flat in recent months.

Byron Hill (G)
[TP]
Sole hurdles success came at Carlisle in October 2024 but he's not been disgraced in recent months, finding the return to a speed-favouring test barely enough of a test when fourth over here 2 weeks ago. This rates more suitable from furth…

Cosmic Soul (G)
FAV
[T]
Doubled his tally on Flat at Southwell in January and continued good work over hurdles last month, supplementing his breakthrough victory over here when cosily following up over C&D 2 weeks ago, by 7½ lengths from Laddie Cooper Mia. 10 lb …

Swingforthefence (G)
[P]
Made no impact in maiden/novice hurdles and fitting of cheekpieces/switch to handicaps failed to bring about any improvement when sixth in a C&D event 3 weeks ago. Too soon to be writing him off but would need to see market support.

Top Flight Century (G)
Opened his account at Perth (2½m) in July and made a successful debut over C&D on Boxing Day. However, ran poorly when pulled up at Newcastle 39 days ago and bounce back called for.

Seeyainthesuninn (G)
[P1]
Down the field in bumpers and has fared little better over hurdles, failing to come on for his reappearance/handicap debut when well held eighth over C&D in November. Cheekpieces now reached for following a break.

Alice Stevens | Micky Hammond | 6 | 69.4 kg |

Knacker Trapper (G)
On a losing sequence but he posted a good third of 15 in handicap hurdle over extended 2½m at Newcastle 18 days ago. Up to playing his part from present mark if arriving in same form.

Kopa Kilana (G)

Long-standing maiden over hurdles who has offered little either start over hurdles 4 months apart for present stable.

Laddie Cooper Mia (M)
[P]
Made promising return at this course in November and posted best effort since when chasing home Cosmic Soul over C&D 2 weeks ago, albeit doing a fair bit wrong once hitting the front. Possible she needs delivering as late as possible but s…

Deauville Lady (M)
Well held only start in bumpers and similar story in trio of soft ground maiden hurdles at around 2m upon returning this winter. Better ground may help now handicapping up in trip and she's one to monitor in the betting for positive vibes.

Mr Globalist (G)
[P]
Long-standing maiden though did shape as though he may sharpen up following a 12-week break when fifth behind Cosmic Soul over C&D 2 weeks ago. Each-way possibilities despite operating from out of the weights.
