Runners
| Pos | No. | Dr | Horse | Jockey | Trainer | Age | Wgt | Best decimal odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14th | 1 | 13 |
Havana Pusey (M)
Scored twice last year and can go well fresh but reappears off a stiff mark here.
|
L Morris | J Gallagher | 6 | 61.2 kg |

18/1
|
| 13th | 2 | 8 |
Percy's Lad (G)
Ran up to best form when fourth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7f, good to soft, 16/5) back in August 2024 but not seen since and is entitled to need this.
|
David Probert | D & C Kubler | 8 | 61.2 kg |
29
28/1
|
| 10th | 3 | 5 |
God Of War (G)
Got back on the up when doubling his tally in a Sandown handicap last summer, a good test at 7f possibly his optimum. However, proved disappointing at Kempton last month and makes limited appeal.
|
Rossa Ryan | Tom Clover | 4 | 61.2 kg |
11
10/1
|
| 8th | 4 | 12 |
Jumby (G)
Smart in his prime, including Group 2 win. However, hasn't got his head in front since 2023 and is hard to recommend despite his tumbling mark.
|
Oliver Carmichael | Eve Johnson Houghton | 8 | 59.9 kg |
21
20/1
|
| 11th | 5 | 15 |
Morte Point (G)
Won 3 of last 4 starts, including when dead-heating in 11-runner handicap over this trip at Southwell in October, emerging with credit given proximity to sound pace. Must be of interest here.
|
Lewis Edmunds | W Muir & C Grassick | 4 | 59.9 kg |

8/1
|
| 1st | 6 | 14 |
Royal Velvet (M)
FAV
Boasts a solid win record, including a couple of victories at this venue last term. Returns on a fair mark and warrants respect.

W Buick | W J Knight | 5 | 59.9 kg |

13/2
|
| 6th | 7 | 4 |
Storm Free (G)
FAV
Upped his game last term, scoring twice from 4 starts. Posted career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Leicester (7f, good to soft) in October and remains with few miles on the clock. Shortlisted.
|
James Doyle | J Tate | 4 | 59.4 kg |
7.50
13/2
|
| 2nd | 8 | 10 |
Jordan Electrics (G)
Proved a revelation in 2024, winning 7 times and climbing over 30 lb in the weights. Still proved competitive on occasions last year and his mark is edging back down but he was well held on his recent return at Musselburgh.
|
Lauren Young | J S Goldie | 10 | 59.4 kg |
41
40/1
|
| 16th | 9 | 1 |
Dapper Guest (G)
[V]
Registered 3 victories over this trip last year but ran poorly when last seen at Lingfield in December and will need to find improvement to defy this mark.
|
J F Egan | G G Margarson | 4 | 59 kg |
51
50/1
|
| 7th | 10 | 2 |
Sujet (G)
Won twice for Dermot Weld in Ireland last year but was below par at Cork in September and present mark demands that bit more on debut for new yard here.
|
Zak Wheatley | D Carroll | 4 | 59 kg |
23
22/1
|
| 9th | 11 | 9 |
Goldmoyne (G)
[P]
Has gone from strength-to-strength since joining James Owen, taking his form up another notch when bringing up the 4-timer at Lingfield (1m) last month. Ran just as well in defeat when third of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Musselburgh (7f, sof…

Cieren Fallon | James Owen | 6 | 58.5 kg |

9/1
|
| 3rd | 12 | 17 |
Crimson Spirit (G)
Completed a hat-trick over this trip last summer. Form tailed off later in year but has been cut some slack by the handicapper and is not discounted first time up here.
|
Alec Voikhansky | D & C Kubler | 5 | 58.1 kg |

12/1
|
| 17th | 13 | 11 |
Gangsta Man (G)
[B]
Twice a winner in Ireland last year, including handicap over 7f at Gowran Park in September. Joined new yard over the winter and posted good second of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 12 days ago. Just 2 lb higher now and must ente…

P Mulrennan | J S Goldie | 4 | 58.1 kg |
12
11/1
|
| 12th | 14 | 3 |
Huscal (G)
Got his act together towards end of last season, including when close second of 14 in handicap at Kempton (7f) in November, finishing well. Just 1 lb higher now and is not taken lightly.
|
Jason Watson | C Hills | 4 | 57.6 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 4th | 15 | 16 |
Eminency (G)
[HT]
A three-time 6f/7f winner in the second half of 2025 who comes here in good nick, latest when respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 11/1) 19 days ago, nearest finish. This looks more competitive, though.
|
Oisin Murphy | S C Williams | 6 | 57.6 kg |
9
8/1
|
| 18th | 16 | 7 |
Bold Impact (G)
Epsom novice winner who made a promising return from over a year off when fourth of 11 on handicap bow at Newcastle in October. Saddle slipped and unseated rider on debut for new yard at Kempton last month and this run should reveal more.
|
Oliver Searle | B R Millman | 4 | 56.2 kg |
51
50/1
|
| 5th | 17 | 18 |
Dragon Leader (G)
Proved a money spinner as a juvenile but lightly raced and largely underwhelming since. However, stepped up on reappearance run when respectable third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton over this trip 27 days ago and could be interesting r…

Physique (G)
FAV
[H]
Without a victory in 2025 but proved consistent for Pam Sly until a below-par effort at Goodwood in July. Not been in same for new yards since but had excuses back from 7 months off at Doncaster recently.
