Beaumadier (G)
C&D winner. Three wins from 19 runs last year. Latest win here in November. Fifth of 8 in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 7 days ago, left poorly placed, so that run easy to excuse.

Jason Hart | D M Loughnane | 6 | 61.2 kg |

Bang On The Bell (G)
[B]
Four-time C&D winner. Seventh of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (5f) 15 days ago. Now just 1 lb above last winning mark but others more persuasive.

Jonny Peate | J R Jenkins | 7 | 60.8 kg |

Blue Force (G)
[H]
Two wins from 6 runs last year. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D (7/2) 25 days ago. Up 4 lb but can remain competitive.

Cam Hardie | A Brittain | 5 | 60.8 kg |

Honour Your Dreams (G)
[H]
Three wins from 14 runs last year, latest of them at Lingfield in July. Last of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 80/1) 14 days ago. Hood back on.

Emperor's Son (G)
[V]
Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 3/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 29 days ago. Visor back on and he's found his level.

Speed Of Maajid (G)
FAV
[P]
Eleven runs since last win in 2025. 11/2, another sound effort when second of 13 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 21 days ago. Expected to be bang there from the same mark.

Marco Ghiani | R M H Cowell | 4 | 59.9 kg |

| 5th | 7 | 4 |
Basholo (M)
Six-time C&D winner, latest of them a career best in 7-runner handicap 39 days ago by short head from Gustav Graves, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Must improve to defy 4 lb higher mark.

Zak Wheatley | Mrs Stella Barclay | 7 | 59.4 kg |

| 4th | 8 | 2 |
Gustav Graves (G)
Seven-time C&D winner. Three wins from 21 runs last year. Won 7-runner handicap at this C&D (7/2) 11 days ago. Carries penalty but a danger to all if getting a good pace to aim at.
