Latest win over C&D in December. 9/2, eighth of 12 in handicap at this course (8f) 28 days ago, left behind from 2f out. Bounce back not ruled out.
|
Course winner. Seven wins from 25 Flat runs. Career best when winning 13-runner minor event at Sharjah (8.4f) 26 days ago. Merits consideration in present groove returned to this shorter trip.
|
C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 14 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
|
Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at this course (8f) 28 days ago, never better than midfield. No discounted stepping back down in trip.
|
Lightly-raced sort who ran to a similar level as on debut for new yard when fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, 5/1) 28 days ago, hampered entering straight and staying on gradually. One to bear in mind.
|
Nine wins from 29 Flat runs. Latest win at Deauville in August. 28/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at this course (8f) 28 days ago, headed under 2f out and weakening. Recent efforts don't inspire confidence ahead of this.
|
Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 28/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (1m) in October, better placed than most. Off 100 days/changed yards ahead of this.
|
33/1, below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Jebel Ali (7f) 34 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.
|
Latest win at Bro in October. Hooded for 1st time, last of 7 in minor event (20/1) at this course (8f) 70 days ago. Others preferred.
|
Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 14/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, merely plugging on. Not taken lightly.
|
C&D winner. Two wins from 6 runs last year. Latest win here in December. Bit below form fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, 7/2) 28 days ago. Enters calculations.
|
C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Last of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, 20/1) 28 days ago, soon beaten. Bounce back called for and worth noting his recent record is a patchy one.
|
Showed benefit of a recent run equipped with a first-time visor when successful over C&D in November. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, 7/2) 21 days ago but previous exploits here give him a sound chance.
|
Career best when winning 13-runner handicap (7/1) at this course (6f) 56 days ago, keeping on well. That was an impressive make-all success and still lightly raced on this surface, he could be worth siding with to build on that from revised mark.
|
5/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (8f), slowly away. Off 11 months. First run for yard after leaving Simon & Ed Crisford. Plenty to find on form.
|
Two wins from 4 runs last year. Tenth of 14 in minor event at Meydan (6f, good, 33/1) 21 days ago. Needs to step up plenty on that making handicap debut/tackling this surface for the first time.

Forecasts
Welcome Dream (2/1), Straight And Level (13/2), Nyaar (13/2), Khanjar (9/1), Magic Petition (10/1), Gamekeeper (10/1), Street Mood (16/1), Oasis Boy (20/1), Iles Et Ailes (20/1), Itsatenfromlen (20/1), Excel Power (22/1), Deep Hope (25/1), Lord Mountbatten (25/1), Quartier (28/1), Meshakel (28/1), Onight (33/1)
C&D winner NYAAR is one of several arriving on the back of a creditable effort and, back down in trip, he looks one of the lead players once more. His stablemate Welcome Dream impressed himself when making all over C&D last time and rates a big threat, along with Straight And Level. Khanjar and Gamekeeper are others fancied to be in the mix.
