Runners
| Pos | No. | Dr | Horse | Jockey | Trainer | Age | Wgt | Best decimal odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7th | 1 | 2 |
Close To Me (F)
Postponed filly is bred more for jumps and has offered little in pair of bumpers.
|
Joe Leavy | Ian Williams | 4 | 61.2 kg |

| 8th | 2 | 7 |
Oceanides (F)
Yet to beat a rival in either Flat start, latest over C&D.

Astrological (C)
FAV
Inexpensive Nathaniel colt (dam closely related to smart sort) showed plenty to work on when runner-up over C&D first time up and has excellent claims to go one better.

Hollie Doyle | M Botti | 3 | 55.8 kg |

| 6th | 4 | 8 |
Favourite Friend (G)
Didn't beat a rival in 3 novices last summer, though given who trains him, he's probably worth noting for handicaps down the line.

Dylan Hogan | Sir Mark Prescott | 3 | 55.8 kg |

| 5th | 5 | 1 |
Helios Path (G)
[P1]
Coulsty gelding offered little on 1m Bath debut in October and hard to be confident upped in trip sporting first-time cheekpieces.
|
Callum Shepherd | Steph Hollinshead | 3 | 55.8 kg |

66/1
|
| 4th | 6 | 3 |
King's Courtier (G)
Again showed nothing when well beaten in 7f Chelmsford maiden last November.
|
K T O'Neill | J & S Birkett | 3 | 55.8 kg |

66/1
|
| 2nd | 7 | 6 |
Zooter (G)
Progressive in novices but failed to meet expectations when (5/4) fourth of 7 on Ripon nursery debut in September. High hopes he can bounce back in a weak maiden, though.
|
H Crouch | Jack Jones | 3 | 55.8 kg |
2.50
6/4
|
| 3rd | 8 | 4 |
Maryland Star (F)
Showed more at long odds when (250/1) fifth of 13 in maiden at Brighton last October, however, that was still barely modest form.
|
J F Egan | D K Ivory | 3 | 53.5 kg |

Betting forecast: Astrological (1/2), Zooter (6/4), Favourite Friend (25/1), Maryland Star (28/1), Close To Me (40/1), King's Courtier (66/1), Helios Path (66/1), Oceanides (100/1)
