Over Spiced (F)
[P]
Has worked her way back to form in 3 starts this spring, proving determined when making all in 6-runner handicap at Bath a week ago. Carries a penalty but can remain competitive now that she's up and running for the year.

Merrimack (G)
[TV]
Front runner who resumed winning ways over 5f at Chelmsford in January. Not in the same form back up to 6f both outings since, well held at Kempton last time, so this should be more suitable (C&D winner last summer).

Thunder Star (M)
[B]
Form has been mixed since her Doncaster success last spring. Shaped better than the result at the same course on return but went backwards from that effort when last of 6 at Yarmouth a month ago. Change of headgear with blinkers now back o…

Cayman Tai (G)
FAV
Sole career victory came back in summer 2024, though looked unlucky not to win after meeting trouble when second at Newcastle (6f) in March. Beaten favourite both starts since, third of 6 at Bath 12 days ago, but he lurks on a dangerous ma…

Diamond Dreamer (G)
[B]
Losing sequence is mounting up but soon left behind a lesser effort when close third of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 2 weeks ago. Task is now to build on latest run back on turf.

Danger Alert (G)
[P]
Without a win since spring 2023 but made the frame on several occasions last year. Caught wide throughout when seventh of 9 at Chelmsford (6f) in December on final outing, though others still more persuasive. Cheekpieces back on.

Correspondence (G)
[P1]
Back on turf, turned in best effort this year for current yard when third of 6 in handicap at Bath (5.7f) 12 days ago. Has eased further in the weights so he's interesting with cheekpieces now added.

Roman Spring (G)
[T]
Three-time winner in 2025, with latest success in 5f handicap at Lingfield in November. Shaped encouragingly after 5 months off when third of 7 at Salisbury (6f) 8 days ago, running out of steam only in the closing stages. Can make a bold …
