9th	1	6	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.	6615-38	K Shoemark E Bethell	4	61.2kg	13 12/1

1st	2	3	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…	322131	Oisin Murphy M L W Bell	5	61.2kg	3 2/1
7th	3	8	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.	12104-9	Marco Ghiani P W Chapple-Hyam	4	60.8kg	4.60 18/5

5th	4	1	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.	137532	Rob Hornby M G Rimell	7	60.3kg	13 12/1
6th	5	9	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 t…	5575-36	Zak Wheatley D Carroll	4	59.9kg	4 3/1

4th	6	4	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 ne…	54-5348	Saffie Osborne J A Osborne	4	59.9kg	34 33/1
2nd	7	7	Primo Lara (G) BT 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.	9-96251	Jonny Peate Jack Morland	5	59.9kg	26 25/1
3rd	8	10	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 mor…	435030	Paddy Bradley James Owen	5	59.4kg	21 20/1
8th	9	2	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.	11/82-58	Tom Marquand A King	5	58.5kg	11 10/1
10th	10	5	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.	8-48050	D Egan M G Rimell	4	56.2kg	19 18/1
