Cannon Rock (G)
FAV
[B]
9/1 and blinkered for 1st time, good second of 11 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 17 days ago. Very much one to consider with headgear again sported.

P Cosgrave | James Owen | 5 | 63.5 kg |

|
| 7th | 2 | 7 |
Yokohama (G)
Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 23 days ago. Up in trip and not ruled out.

Donagh Murphy | J Butler | 4 | 63 kg |

| 6th | 3 | 3 |
Civil Law (G)
5-time course winner. 14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 12 days ago. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023.

Meet Me In Meraki (G)
3 wins from 15 runs this year. 14/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Can give a good account.

Billy Loughnane | P D Evans | 4 | 61.7 kg |

9/1
|
| 9th | 5 | 10 |
Skycutter (G)
Sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (40/1) 25 days ago, not ideally placed. Needs considering.
|
S Donohoe | Mrs Stella Barclay | 7 | 61.7 kg |

|
| 2nd | 6 | 1 |
Must Believe (G)
[V]
Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (11/2) at Southwell (11.1f) 24 days ago. Not taken lightly in his current mood.

H Crouch | I Mohammed | 3 | 60.8 kg |

| 3rd | 7 | 8 |
Eupator (G)
[B1]
15/8, only sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 25 days ago. Back up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time now.

S M Levey | R Hannon | 3 | 59.9 kg |

| 10th | 8 | 6 |
Oviedo (G)
Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 40/1) 8 days ago. Hard to warm to.

Finley Marsh | Alexandra Dunn | 5 | 59 kg |

|
| 5th | 9 | 4 |
Flaine (F)
Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 16 days ago, very slowly away. Unreliable sort.
|
Connor Planas | D Loughnane | 3 | 58.5 kg |

|
| 8th | 10 | 9 |
Upepo (G)
FAV
Readily resumed winning ways in apprentices' handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 3 days ago. Escapes a penalty here so this C&D scorer holds major claims.
