| 1st | 1 | 2 |
Love Your Work (G)
C&D winner. 3 wins from 17 runs this year, the latest at Chelmsford in November. 10/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 11 days ago, badly hampered. Must improve.

K T O'Neill | Darryll Holland | 9 | 62.1 kg |

Toralou (M)
Winner at Musselburgh in August. Respectable third of 9 in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Should be on the premises.

Billy Loughnane | D M Loughnane | 4 | 61.7 kg |

Renewable Dream (G)
14/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 88 days ago. Needs to raise his game.

Gianluca Sanna | S Spencer | 3 | 60.8 kg |

Joseph (G)
[P]
Good second of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 3/1) 28 days ago, no match for winner. Record stands at 0-13, but he's considered all the same.

Warren Fentiman | J Butler | 3 | 60.3 kg |

The Sweet Escape (G)
FAV
[B1]
Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 11/2) 11 days ago. Now tried in blinkers and he looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Rowan Scott | D Loughnane | 3 | 60.3 kg |

| 8th | 6 | 3 |
Coolree (G)
Below form sixth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Newcastle (8f) 26 days ago, going off too hard. 0-14 on the AW and he's opposable on debut for new yard.
|
George Wood | S England | 6 | 59.9 kg |

9/1

| 4th | 7 | 8 |
First Greyed (G)
FAV
[V]
C&D winner. 3 wins from 7 runs this year. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 9 days ago. Boasts a 50% strike rate on the AW and he's very much one to consider.
|
Cieren Fallon | T Faulkner | 7 | 59.9 kg |

| 3rd | 8 | 9 |
Francesi (G)
Two wins from 46 Flat runs. Improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap (12/1) at Newcastle (8f) 9 days ago, readily. 5 lb rise tolerable and he has to enter calculations.
|
Myla Coppins | A W Carroll | 6 | 59.4 kg |

5/1
|
| 2nd | 9 | 1 |
Equion (G)
C&D winner. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D (13/2) 9 days ago. Francesi is presumably the stable No 1.

L Morris | A W Carroll | 7 | 59 kg |

Betting forecast: First Greyed (7/2), The Sweet Escape (7/2), Francesi (5/1), Joseph (11/2), Toralou (15/2), Love Your Work (9/1), Coolree (9/1), Equion (12/1), Renewable Dream (16/1)
