Tuscan Point (G)
FAV
[ET]
Made it 2 wins from 5 starts for his emerging stable when successful in a modestly-run handicap over C&D last time. That performance can be marked up from a pace perspective, and he may be able to defy a rise in grade. First-time eyecover …

Maharajas Express (G)
Landed a third win of 2025 in a slightly better race at Chester in July and while he should come on for his reappearance when fourth of 5 over 6f here, usual headgear is again left off.

David Probert | Ian Williams | 6 | 60.8 kg |

| 6th | 3 | 1 |
Shalaa Asker (G)
[PT]
A winner three times over the winter, he continued a fine run of form when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time (again not seen entirely to best effect) and is entitled to be firmly in the mix with Tom Marquand back in the saddle.

Tom Marquand | C Wallis | 8 | 59.9 kg |

9/1

| 7th | 4 | 9 |
Birkenhead (G)
[P]
Step back in the right direction when third of 8 at Catterick last time and this previous C&D winner needs considering now 1 lb below his last successful mark.

Daniel Muscutt | P T Midgley | 9 | 58.1 kg |

| 5th | 5 | 4 |
So Smart (G)
[PT]
Front runner didn't have it all his own way when below form at Bath last time and is likely to face competition for the lead again.
|
Ray Dawson | G Harris | 7 | 57.6 kg |

| 3rd | 6 | 7 |
Faustus (G)
[P]
Likely needed his comeback at Goodwood last time and it could be significant if he's supported off a falling mark.

Joe Leavy | R Cook & J Bridger | 8 | 57.6 kg |

My Boy Harry (G)
Now 2 lb below his last successful mark, but all his wins have come over longer trips in lesser grades.

Kieren Fox | J & S Best | 4 | 55.8 kg |

Desert Champion (G)
[V]
Showed more spark in a reapplied visor when runner-up at Newcastle in November. Not in the same form since but did shape better than the beaten distance on return at Redcar last time.

Pierre-Louis Jamin | P T Midgley | 4 | 54.4 kg |

| 1st | 9 | 5 |
Harry Brown (G)
Arrives out of sorts, though worth a second look in the betting with Hollie Doyle back in the saddle.
