Botox Has (G)
[P]
Good third in the Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham in January, but he was otherwise below par last season and departed early in Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury on return. No room for error off current mark back in a handicap.

Stay Away Fay (G)
[PT]
Won the 2023 Albert Bartlett but has lost his way, pulled up 5 of last 6 starts, including on return at Chepstow. Plenty to prove back hurdling.

Tiny Tetley (G)
Won 4 times in a productive 2024/25 campaign and only narrowly denied at Haydock in May. Hasn't taken to chasing this season but respected back in this sphere.

Classic King (G)
Dual 19f hurdles/chase winner last term who signed off with a good second at Kempton (21f, good to soft). Encouraging reappearance at Cheltenham but never landed a blow when upped to this trip at Newbury last month.

Rex Dingle | Miss E C Lavelle | 7 | 70.3 kg |

Largy Poet (G)
[P]
Useful hurdler who is a chasing sort on looks and took well to fences with a 3m Exeter handicap success in February. Continued the good work when second at Fontwell on return but struggled in deeper race at Ascot last month, beaten before …

Ike Sport (G)
[H]
Took a step forward from his reappearance when fifth of 6 at Sandown but didn't show enough to suggest he's about to end his losing run.

Absolutely Doyen (G)
FAV
Made it 3-3 for Paul Nicholls when seeing off 8 rivals on handicap debut at Ascot (soft) last month. Hit with an 8 lb rise but did it readily and there should be more to come.

El Capitaine (G)
Had been prolific in points prior to making a winning return to Rules for new stable at Newton Abbot. Decent fourth at Cheltenham since but work to do from out of the weights.

Moonset (G)
Lightly raced but progressive, making a winning handicap bow at Newton Abbot in April. Needs to take another sizeable step forward from 4 lb out of the handicap, though.
