Superfortress (G)
FAV
Sent off 100/1 but showed plenty to work on when second of 8 in 1¼m novice at Newcastle on debut in October. Went backwards at Redcar later that month but confirmed his debut effort no fluke when second in a C&D maiden on reappearance. Int…

Marry The Night (G)
[P]
Thriving in recent months, recording a fourth C&D win in March. Has run two solid races in defeat subsequently and seems sure to give another good account.

Sean Kirrane | T D Easterby | 4 | 61.2 kg |

| 10th | 3 | 2 |
Plutarch (G)
Yet to build on an encouraging debut but might have needed the run after 4 months off when beating only one home in 1¼m novice at Nottingham on recent return and should have more chance now handicapping.

Megan Smith | G Boughey | 4 | 60.3 kg |

King Of York (G)
[B]
Gained a deserved success here (7f) in February. Mixed record since, albeit not seen to best effect back on turf at Doncaster on latest start, having been poorly drawn.

K T O'Neill | S Dixon | 7 | 59.9 kg |

8/1

| 6th | 5 | 9 |
Iconic Times (G)
Quickly returned to form when third of 11 in handicap at this course (7f) last month. Subsequently sold out of Heather Main's yard for 13,000 gns.

George Wood | J Candlish | 4 | 59.9 kg |

| 5th | 6 | 6 |
Soames Forsyte (G)
[P]
Unreliable type who bounced back from a spell in the doldrums to spring a surprise over C&D in January. Quirks in evidence again since but wasn't ideally placed on his most recent outing.

Dylan Hogan | M Herrington | 7 | 59.4 kg |

Give Me The Night (G)
[T]
Failed to progress in handicaps last year but shaped as if needing the run when fourth in 9-runner event at Kempton (1m) on reappearance 19 days ago. Eased 2 lb and this will reveal more.

Saffie Osborne | M G Rimell | 4 | 59.4 kg |

Age Of Baroque (G)
C&D winner for Marco Botti last summer. Posted a respectable third back at this venue (1m) in March but wasn't in the same form at Wolverhampton 10 days later.

Lewis Edmunds | Jessica Macey | 5 | 59.4 kg |

Avatar Jet (G)
Bagged a 1m Killarney handicap for Mark Fahey in July 2024 and largely acquitted himself well later that year. Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests (did too much too soon) at Doncaster on comeback for new yard last month and wel…

Goldie Trickett (F)
[H1]
A notably expensive yearling but looked nothing out of the ordinary in 4 runs for William Haggas last season, including on handicap debut on final outing. Hood fitted for reappearance/stable bow.

S De Sousa | Jane Chapple-Hyam | 4 | 58.1 kg |

| 9th | 11 | 11 |
Johnjay (G)
[HT1]
Dual 1m winner for Roger Teal but failed to come on for his reappearance/stable debut prior to showing some aptitude for hurdling at Taunton. Tongue strap goes on.
