Federal Envoy (G)
All 3 wins at this C&D, but last of 8 in handicap at Ayr (12/1) 43 days ago, leading but weakening on heavy ground. Return to this surface therefore a plus.

Jodhpur Blue (G)

Poor form for much of 2025 but down in the weights and more like it when third of 14 in handicap at Newmarket (22/1) 21 days ago when held up and kept on well late on. Proven on AW.

Captain Parma (G)
Much more like it since gelding operation, winning over C&D last month and second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9/2) 24 days ago, running on well despite patient tactics not suiting the pace. Will continue to give a good account.
