Tees Aggregates (G)
Not the most consistent but won a pair of handicaps in 2025 and he did best of those from the rear despite proving keen early when fifth of 17 in handicap at Thirsk (5f) 12 days ago. Mark is steadily easing and he's not discounted.

Herakles (G)
FAV
Shaping up pretty well prior to resuming winning ways at Nottingham (5f) 3 weeks ago, always travelling best and drawing clear from 8 rivals in final 1f. Hit with a 6 lb rise but this C&D winner is respected in this sort of form.

South Parade (M)
Opened account for 2025 with success at Thirsk in August. Ended the year on a low-key note, though, and has yet to fire in 3 starts so far this spring. This a handy drop in class at least.

Dc Cogent (G)
Newcastle maiden winner in early 2025. Hasn't tasted success subsequently but produced another creditable effort when third behind reopposing Herakles at Nottingham 2 starts back. Best excused latest Carlisle run having encountered traffic…

Our Absent Friends (G)
Ended 2025 with 5f victory at Newcastle in December and continued to run well at Gosforth Park in defeat this year. Clearly not 100% when last of 17 at Doncaster in March but freshened up ahead of this.

Marajito (F)
A 5f winner at Redcar last summer but she ended 20025 out of sorts. Now below last winning mark as a result and shaped as if better for the run when fifth behind Herakles on return from 7 months off at Nottingham (5f) 19 days ago

Canaria Queen (M)
[P]
C&D winner who has made a bright start to the present campaign, making it 2 wins from last 3 starts at Musselburgh (5f) 7 days ago, leading on bridle around 2f out and kept up to work. Live player again under a penalty.

Wrestling Revenue (G)
Landed a gamble off this mark at Pontefract in October and needs a check in the betting having showed a bit more than previously this season over C&D last time.
