Bright (G)
Back to his best when winning 10-runner handicap at Newcastle in December but wasn't seen to best effect the way the race developed back there 5 weeks later. Freshened up since but faces an uphill task from stall 15.

Rosenpur (G)
[H]
Had a highly productive and busy 2025, winning 5 times on all-weather/turf (including twice here). Resumed with a solid second at Catterick last month but was unable to build on that at Musselburgh a week later. Respected back at this trac…

Clonmacash (G)
[V]
Did the job well when winning 7f handicap at Dundalk in January and doubled his tally for the year back at that same course 5 weeks ago, a good test over 6f suiting him well. 3 lb rise far from insurmountable and he's landed the plum draw.

Kiniro (G)
Found some improvement to land a second career success in 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f) 6 months ago, getting a good run through along the inside but settling things nicely nonetheless. Has since left Harry Charlton (40,000 gns) but …

Miraculous (G)
C&D winner last July but having ended his time with Roger Varian well below par, he shaped as if badly needing the run on first start for this yard at Catterick last month. Handicapper continues to ease his grip (now below his last winning…

Jonny Concrete (G)

[P]
Returned an improved model last season with a win and couple of runner-up efforts before his form tailed off in the summer. Returns just 2 lb above his last successful mark and his usual cheekpieces are reapplied.

Kirkdale (G)
[V]
Has returned an improved model after an 11-week break this year, winning back-to-back handicaps at Wolverhampton and Southwell last month, things setting up nicely for his late charge last time. In good heart but is the type who needs thin…

Queue Dos (F)
[B]
All 4 of her wins have come at Wolverhampton, including a career-best effort when scoring on Boxing Day. Below form after 3 months off back there recently and has it all to do from the widest stall.

Aisling Oscar (G)
[P]
Matched a 30-year modern-day record of 8 straight handicap wins at Southwell in February and emerged with credit in defeat over a trip on the short side for him when runner-up over 6f at Wolverhampton in March. Not quite so good back on tu…

Manila Scouse (G)
[T]
Opened his 2025 account at Thirsk last summer and held his form pretty well thereafter, including back over the minimum trip at Leicester on final outing. Has gone well fresh in the past so certainly not ruled out for a yard amongst the wi…

Intervention (G)
Was kept busy last year and recorded 4 wins, including the Great St Wilfrid Handicap at Ripon (6f). Went without his usual headgear and did all he could from a slipping mark when fourth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good) 12 days ag…

Wolverhampton maiden winner last spring and has posted some solid efforts in defeat since, not least returning from a 6-month absence when second of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) recently. Every chance he will go close with that under hi…

Paws For Thought (G)
Eased in weights and confirmed promise of previous start when landing 9-runner handicap here in September (sixth course win). Ended his campaign on a bit of a low note with a couple of below-par efforts and it's hard not to think he'll pro…

The Good Biscuit (G)
Ended 2025 with victories at Pontefract and Catterick in October. Has picked up from where he left off this season, getting the race run to suit when second of 6 in handicap at former track (6f, good) 9 days ago. Each-way claims once again…
