| 2nd | 1 | 8 |
Electric Avenue (M)
[PT]
Comes here in excellent heart, resuming winning ways over 7f at Newcastle on penultimate start before following up in good style over 1m at that venue 5 days ago. Bold bid beckons in attempt to land the hat-trick.

Cotiere (F)
[P1]
Lightly-raced maiden who produced a laboured effort when fifth of 7 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 12/1) 47 days ago. Cheekpieces on for handicap debut and it's too soon to be writing her off for leading yard.

Simply Blue (G)
FAV
[V1]
C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 11/1) 4 days ago, making late headway from an unhelpful position. Visor on 1st time and unlikely we've seen all he has to offer for shrewd outfit.

| 5th | 4 | 9 |
Carolus Magnus (G)
Quirky sort. Latest win at Musselburgh in October and following a lesser display at Newcastle, he returned to form when second of 11 in handicap back at Musselburgh (7.1f, soft, 13/2) 24 days ago. Undoubtedly capable but overall strike rat…

Baloo's Blues (G)
Modest in novices but improved when second of 10 on handicap bow at Salisbury (7f) in June, dwelling at start but staying on well late. Off the track since but this low-mileage colt may yet have more to offer on the back of just 4 career s…

Chifa (G)
5-time C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, just failing. Has to be taken seriously.

L Morris | E De Giles | 8 | 59.4 kg |

Capuchinero (M)
[T]
C&D winner. Good third of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Kempton (7f) 31 days ago, staying on final 1f. On a workable mark if she can build on that here.

K T O'Neill | Alice Haynes | 6 | 58.5 kg |

|
| 3rd | 8 | 1 |
Romanovich (G)
[P]
Course winner who has tasted success twice at Chepstow (7f) this year, latterly in July. However, only seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D (40/1) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces back on but others more persuasive for win purposes.

William Carson | J G M O'Shea | 6 | 58.5 kg |

| 7th | 9 | 5 |
Harbour Vision (G)
[B]
Veteran. Eight-time course winner who finished last of 9 in handicap at this C&D (50/1) 14 days ago after a wide trip. That run can be overlooked but he's without a win in 21 races.
