Degale
(GBR)
Has just a 2024 novice win to his name but he's still low mileage and took a step back in the right direction when third of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 11 days ago. Contender if he can build on that.

This 3-time C&D winner is very much at the veteran stage but that hasn't prevented a couple of other stable stalwarts from winning this spring and recent placed efforts at Pontefract and Ripon suggest this 11-y-o can fo…

Edged down the weights last season for Eve Johnson Houghton. Shaped better than the result on first 2 outings for Jim Goldie but never involved at Musselburgh last time.

Ended a losing run at Southwell (1m) in December and suited by the sound gallop when making a winning return to turf at Wetherby (1m, good) last month. Backed that up when runner-up at Thirsk (1m again) on Saturday. Pla…

Jannas Journey

Winner of 7 races in a remarkable 2-month spell last summer. Yet to fire in 3 outings this year and best watched until showing more positive signs.

Has performed no more than respectably in 2 comeback outings this spring and remains 2 lb above the mark he defied at Newcastle last autumn.

Penelope's Sister
(IRE)
Enjoyed a tremendous 2025, winning 3 C&D handicaps. Never involved on C&D reappearance 15 days ago but entitled to strip fitter now.

Veteran who landed a ninth course success when easily seeing off 8 rivals over this trip at last year's Western Meeting but has offered little in his 2 outings this season. It remains to be seen whether a return to Ayr …

Return To Unit
(GBR)
900,000 gns yearling from a very good family. Didn't make it to the track until last autumn but displayed plenty of promise, accounting for subsequent 2-time winner My Fermoy in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft)…

Sir Paul Ramsey
(GBR)
Looked like developing into a very useful handicapper last summer but has been a little disappointing since, including only sixth of 9 at Pontefract (1m, good) 3 weeks ago. A bounce back is needed.
