Imperial Bede (G)
[P]
Back to winning ways at Catterick in February but possibly found run coming too quickly when last of 5 in 19f handicap chase at Hereford 41 days ago. Worth another chance.

R P McLernon | J & A O'Neill | 8 | 76.2 kg |

Heads Or Harps (G)
Running well without winning this season, placed for fourth consecutive time when second of 3 in handicap chase at Ayr 29 days ago. Must enter calculations again.

I Shut That D'or (G)
[T]
Bagged a third win of the season at Hereford in January 2025 but off for 13 months since only fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Stratford (22f). Needs to hit the ground running.

Brendan Powell | J Tizzard | 8 | 75.7 kg |

Bonza Boy (G)
[P]
Scored at Exeter in January and backed it up with a good second of 7 in handicap chase at Wincanton following month. Needs considering off the same mark.

Victoria Milano (M)
[T]
Dual 2m/2m5f hurdles winner in 2023/24 for Alastair Ralph. Generally below par last season though and again for her new yard this term. Others are more appealing.

Jonjo O'Neill Jr. | O Greenall & J Guerriero | 8 | 72.1 kg |

Count Adhemar (G)
FAV
Has made a promising start in this sphere, second of 6 in 2m handicap at Newcastle 21 days ago. Jumps well and rates a big player nudged up 1 lb.
|
Theo Gillard | D McCain Jnr | 6 | 71.2 kg |

| 3rd | 7 | — |
Royal Deeside (G)
A dual winner this season and he comes here on the back of a good third of 13 in handicap chase at Carlisle 13 days ago. Unreliable sort overall however.

Charlie Maggs | P Morris | 6 | 69.4 kg |
