4th	1	2	Prince Achille (G) Added a fifth C&D success to his tally last November but more bad runs than good ones since, left behind from 3f out on return from 5 months off at Thirsk (1½m) 6 weeks ago. Has it to prove at presen…	457834	J Garritty Jedd O'Keeffe	7	62.6kg	41 40/1
6th	2	3	Phaedra (F) Won 3 times on turf for Richard Hannon in 2025. Turned in best effort for current yard when runner-up at Doncaster in June but hasn't scaled same heights in pair of starts on turf/all-weather more re…	240256	George Wood Joey Ramsden	4	62.1kg	41 40/1
13th	3	7	Pureis King (G) Well supported when landing a quick-fire double on the Flat at up to 1½m in June. Ridden too aggressively when sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (13f) 6 weeks ago (final start for Faye Bramley) and…	211560	J P Sullivan Mrs R Carr	4	61.2kg	10 9/1
10th	4	8	Token Love (G) T Low-mileage 4-y-o who has made a sound start for his new yard, seemingly paying for earlier exertions when third in a C&D handicap in July. Mark looks workable on balance of his form and he's worth a…	25-7423	Aiden Brookes Micky Hammond	4	61.2kg	5 4/1
1st	5	10	Rory's Gold (G) Maiden who posted a solid second over 1m at Ayr in June and back to that sort of form when third over this trip at Pontefract 8 days ago, no extra final 1f. Each-way possibilities back on all-weather…	288731	Amie Waugh S Waugh	4	60.8kg	15 14/1
2nd	6	6	Gemini Man (G) Has won 3 times on the Flat this year, including C&D classified event in June. Hard to knock his recent consistency, runner up over further here prior to finishing a creditable fourth back over this …	924242	A Mullen I Jardine	8	60.3kg	6.50 11/2
3rd	7	1	Yaaser (G) Finished a close third in better race at Hamilton last month but typically put himself on the back foot with slow starts of late, and ran poorly when last of 8 in handicap at Ayr (1m, soft) last week…	384883	P Mulrennan J S Goldie	8	60.3kg	15 14/1
11th	8	12	Eagles Dream (F) Fair maiden in Ireland for John Joseph Murphy. Yet to cut much ice for current yard, including following a breathing operation at Carlisle (9f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago.	880508	Rowan Scott T Davidson	4	60.3kg	13 12/1
8th	9	14	Balmoral Boy (G) Supremacy gelding who has displayed much more encouraging signs on 2 of last 3 starts, equipped with cheekpieces when keeping on third in big-field handicap at Redcar (1m) 16 days ago. Return to this…	042738	Alex Jary N Tinkler	3	59.4kg	9 8/1
12th	10	13	Carwyn (G) P Showed ability in maidens in Ireland last year but hasn't fired in 5 starts for current yard this season. Steps back in trip now.	899070	D Nolan P Morris	3	59kg	29 28/1
7th	11	5	Rugby Union (G) FAV Low-mileage sort who capitalised on a falling mark and justified good support in the process when opening his account in 12-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago. Did well under the circumstances then (enc…	958179	Joanna Mason G Tutty	3	59kg	2.75 7/4
9th	12	11	Game Management (G) P Juvenile hurdle winner for this yard in 2024. Made the frame but ran to only a modest level back from 10 months off when fourth in classified event at Ayr (1m, good) last month and fared no better wh…	5/987-44	Shane Gray Lizzie Quinlan	5	57.2kg	29 28/1
5th	13	9	Falaise Blanc (G) V C&D winner from this mark 12 months ago. Yet to add to his tally but proving largely consistent in recent months, not discredited back on softer ground when fourth at Hamilton (11f) 23 days ago. Each…	324456	Greg Fairley K Scott	4	56.2kg	34 33/1
14th	14	4	Rajawail (M) TV Long-standing maiden who has offered little in turf handicaps in recent months. Hard to make a case for back up markedly in trip.	700087	Laura Coughlan B Rothwell	6	56.2kg	301 300/1
