Orangesandlemons (F)
[P]
Course winner in October. Turned in a rare below-par effort when only eighth of 11 in handicap here (1m) 25 days ago. The sort to bounce back though on her first go over this trip.

A Major Payne (G)
FAV
[P]
Still looking for a breakthrough victory but he is knocking on the door, runner-up in handicap at Newmarket (1¼m) 19 days ago. Should be very competitive again off the same mark with Oisin Murphy now up.

Something Splendid (C)
A dual 1¼m winner at Newmarket and Doncaster last summer. Shaped as if needing the run after 7 months off when ninth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (1¼m) 19 days ago. Can take a step forward.

Caph Star (G)
[T]
Gained first turf success over C&D in April but seemed unsuited by the track when seventh of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (1¼m) 19 days ago. Can bounce back returned here.

Kasgani (G)
Ex-Irish maiden. Shaped really well on his yard debut when third of 14 to Caph Star in handicap over C&D on his return, finishing well having got no run from 2f out. Up 3 lb but expected to be bang there with few miles still on the clock.

Abando (G)
[P]
Useful form on turf in Germany last year but hasn't got anywhere near that level on these shores, including both starts for current yard this winter. Goes handicapping after a break with lots more needed in first-time cheekpieces.

Primo Lara (G)
[B1T]
Won twice over this trip in 2024 for Jane Chapple-Hyam. Not so good since, and only sixth of 8 (retried in cheekpieces) in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m) 16 days ago. Blinkers reached for now.

No Knee Never (G)
[PT]
Is being kept very busy in 2026, already winning 3 times on the all-weather. Posted another good effort when fourth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (1m) 12 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts once more.

Star Time (G)
Low-mileage 5-y-o who was twice a winner in 2024. Back from 14 months off with an encouraging fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 30 days ago, fading only last 1f. Can build on it here.

Give Me The Night (G)
[T]
Still a maiden and he came in only eighth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (1m) 27 days ago. Needs this step up in trip to spark major progress.
