|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5th | 1 | 4 |
Toyotomi (G)
Hit the frame in a Group 3 on stable debut last summer, and with sights lowered, ran creditably to finish fifth of 8 at Goodwood in October. Needs considering on first start since a gelding operation.

D Tudhope | D O'Meara | 5 | 61.2 kg |

| 2nd | 2 | 7 |
Albasheer (G)
[B]
Dual C&D winner looked to be working his way back to form when fourth of 7 in a better race here last time and isn't ruled out if building on that.

Hollie Doyle | A Watson | 8 | 61.2 kg |

9/1
|
| 10th | 3 | 5 |
The Caltonian (G)
[B]
Landed fourth C&D success in January but arrives on the back of a break, having proved a let-down when well-beaten favourite over 5f here the following month.
|
K T O'Neill | Miss L A Perratt | 7 | 60.3 kg |

| 6th | 4 | 2 |
Wicket Keeper (G)
Low-mileage 4-y-o won twice for Edward Bethell (sold for 55,000 gns), and despite long odds, proved at least as good as ever when fourth of 14 in a slightly lower grade here on stable debut.

Cam Hardie | A Brittain | 4 | 59 kg |

14/1
|
| 7th | 5 | 10 |
Paddy's Day (G)
[T1]
Continued run of good form when fifth of 14 in C&D handicap last time, doing best of those close up, and this 7-time course winner should give his running again.

Alex Jary | N Tinkler | 6 | 58.5 kg |

Evening Saigon (G)
FAV
Looked a sprint handicapper to follow when useful winner on all-weather debut/reappearance at Chelmsford last October and having likely found the race coming too soon at Doncaster the following month, he looks well worth another chance on …

Callum Rodriguez | H Al Jehani | 4 | 58.5 kg |

| 3rd | 7 | 9 |
Strike Red (G)
Runner-up in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood in August but has come back down the handicap following a quiet end to the season. Looks interesting in this grade and could feature prominently if ready to roll.
|
Billy Garritty | R A Fahey | 8 | 57.2 kg |
6.50
11/2
|
| 8th | 8 | 1 |
Grant Wood (G)
Enhanced fine record at this track with back-to-back C&D wins prior to shaping as if still in form (not ideally placed) when fourth on his hat-trick bid at Wolverhampton last time. Does find himself in better company here, though.
|
Jason Hart | P T Midgley | 7 | 56.2 kg |
7.50
13/2
|
| 9th | 9 | 3 |
William Dewhirst (G)
Prolific winner at this track over the winter of 2024/25 but has presumably had issues since and he shaped as if amiss returning from a year off here last time.
|
A Mullen | B Haslam | 6 | 54 kg |

66/1
|
| 4th | 10 | 8 |
Cajetan (G)
[B1]
Has gone backwards since a promising stable debut at Wolverhampton in February and it's hard to be confident that more severe headgear will spark a revival.
