Rioja Alta (G)
[B]
Matched best efforts when good third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (3m, good to soft) 36 days ago. Place claims once more.

Follow Charlie (G)
[P]
Twice a winner in 2025, including at this course. Largely held form since but hinted that he'd gone off the boil last time so has something to prove now.

Jeteye (G)
[TP]
Proved consistent in 2024 before a long absence, but recent return when third of 15 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (3m, good) 26 days ago showed he retains all his ability and he merits plenty of respect from this mark.

Bollin Matilda (M)
FAV
[T]
C&D winner who looked better than ever when successful in 13-runner handicap hurdle (13/2) at Musselburgh (3m, good) 33 days ago, responding well. Bound to be of interest again in current heart with a 4 lb rise looking within her capabilit…

Suspected (G)
Bumper winner and one of the least exposed. Neither start in handicaps to date suggest he's especially well treated, but the longer trip offers some scope for progress.

Coylton King (G)
Only a length down and in the process of running well when unseating in February and followed that effort with good second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (3m, heavy) 46 days ago, travelling best. Looks capable of defying this sort of mark

Pure Sirloin (G)
[V]
One win from 21 NH runs but was good third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (2½m, heavy) 28 days ago. Repeat of that form will see him involved.

No Rematch (G)
[B1T]
19 runs since last win in 2023 and largely struggled since joining this yard. Given a chance by the handicapper as a result but needs first-time blinkers to rejuvenate him.

Don Brocco (G)
[T]
Only poor nowadays and struggled when fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Carlisle (3m, good) 18 days ago. Switches from chasing to hurdles with something to prove, though does have regular tongue strap reapplied.

Lennie Godber (G)

Offered little over fences on recent stable debut. Switched back to hurdles here but is not easy to make a case for.

Millford Hill (G)

Point winner but little encouragement over hurdles so far. Needs major progress for longer trip on handicap debut.
