Epictetus (G)
FAV
[B]
Hasn't won in 13 starts since August 2023 but has shown some ability on AW recently. Finished 7th of 12 in handicap at this course over 8.6f (11/2) 17 days ago, racing prominently before fading in the closing stages. May be capable of bett…

Empirestateofmind (G)
[B]
Won a seller at Musselburgh 55 days ago but finished ninth of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (16/1) 31 days ago and found it too competitive. Usually more effective in selling company.

Tribal Wisdom (G)
[T]
Consistent performer with two course wins and successful at Southwell (9/1) 33 days ago. Fourth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6/1) 4 days ago, beaten 2¾ lengths. Could go well at a track where he's been successful.

Not Me (G)
Shown fair AW form including a 3rd at Lingfield (10f) and 2nd at Kempton (8f). Finished last of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (16/1) 198 days ago, below form on first outing since changing stables.

Hitched (G)
[H]
Has eight career wins including one at this C&D and finished sixth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (22/1) 17 days ago, making steady headway without threatening. Could build on that as twice won on second start after a break.

Sailthisshipalone (G)
[V1]
After a string of unplaced efforts, finished first of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (7/2) 20 days ago, fortunate to end a long losing run, all out to hold on. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces today.

Spirit Lead Me (G)
[P]
Struggled on turf in summer but transformed since returning to AW in September. Won readily in a 12-runner handicap at Southwell (5/2) over 8f 59 days ago, tanking along before keeping on well. Has taken form to a new level with cheekpiece…

Eagle Day (G)
Out of form recently, finishing last of 11 in handicap at Southwell (28/1) 84 days ago when racing freely in first-time visor. Has 4 course wins but needs significant improvement.
