Glorious Kitty (F)
Went close to breaking her duck at Nottingham last season and returned from 5 months off with a good second at Beverley. Shaped as if still in good form at Musselburgh since.

Wolf Of Badenoch (G)
FAV
Without a win since his debut back in June 2024 but ran best race for a while (gambled on) without getting the race run to suit when close fourth at Doncaster last month. Looks ready to strike.

Mwafaq (G)
[P]
Ended last season with back-to-back wins at Wolverhampton and completed the hat-trick at Thirsk on return. Not beaten far having raced wide at Southwell since so can make presence felt again.

Lovette (F)
Winner of weak maiden at Ripon last summer and placed in only 1 of her 6 subsequent handicap outings, coming home last here on return 2 weeks ago.

| 4th | 5 | 7 |
Tap Dancer (F)
Turf winner for Marcus Tregoning in 2024. Unable to make a significant impact for that yard last year but it could be a different story for this trainer with her reappearance behind her.
|
758-746 | Shay Farmer | J S Goldie | 4 | 61.2 kg |

Sophiesticate (M)
Ended losing run at Musselburgh last summer for Jim Goldie but made a low-key start for this yard towards the end of 2025.
|
877-763 | K S McHugh | R M Smith | 7 | 59.9 kg |

| 5th | 7 | 5 |
South Road (F)
Winner of a big-field sprint off 2 lb higher here in July but ended last season on a low note and little encouragement at Newcastle on return. Step up in trip unlikely to suit.
|
569-85R | Lexie Clarkson | L Russell & M Scudamore | 4 | 59 kg |

Evelyn's Phoenix (G)
[PT]
Capitalised on a much-reduced mark to make a winning return at Nottingham and backed that up when second at Leicester. Found run of good form coming to a halt at Beverley since, though.
