Punchbowl Flyer (G)
[B]
Sole 2025 success came over C&D last summer. Had good run of 5 in-the-frame finishes on the all-weather earlier this season before below form back on turf at Haydock last month. No surprise to see him bounce back down in grade.

Dancing With Drums (G)
Winner of 3 races over 6f on the all-weather, including in 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago. Remains unexposed and has to be taken seriously on return to the turf.

Dragon God (C)
FAV
Headstrong sort who's gradually finding his feet for this yard with a pair of third-placed finishes at Leicester and Windsor on last 2 starts. Will benefit from the return to 6f and can go well again.

Son Of Astar (G)
Made frame on first 2 outings this season on the all-weather. 12/1 and in first-time visor, sixth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 89 days ago, slowly away. Has the headgear discarded. Does need things to drop right but seems best …

Macarone (G)
[TP]
15/2 and in first-time tongue strap, fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) 24 days ago. Subsequently sold from Ivan Furtado for 2,000 gns. Looks well treated at present.

Dayman (G)
[B1]
Twenty five runs since last win in 2022 but did go close at Wolverhampton (7f) in March. 11/2, bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 24 days ago. Eased slightly again in the weights and gets first-time blinkers added.

Captain Cess (G)
Well held last 3 starts in 2025. Hard to make a case for back on the turf for return.

A Rose Adaay (F)
Lightly-raced maiden whose standout effort came when third in a heavy ground C&D maiden in September. Easy to look elsewhere on reappearance.

Autumn Angel (M)
On a long losing run but has been knocking on the door on several occasions this season. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7f, 11/1) 14 days ago. Has the headgear discarded here and in with a shout if back to form.

Alyara (M)
Twenty eight runs since last win in 2024. Little impact back on turf last 2 starts. The headgear is left off but is difficult to make a case for.

Griselda (F)
[TP]
Went very close to ending her losing run at Southwell 2 starts back but has largely been miss rather than hit for this yard.
