7/2
Largely progressive sort who resumed with a win at Newcastle in April and comes here on the back of a good fourth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts.

18/1
A fairly useful 1m4f winner in 2024 but he arrives well below par, only seventh of 8 in handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Ended a losing run at Goodwood in May but he came in last of 10 in handicap at Sandown (14f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Has a bit to prove now.

Opened his account at Doncaster in May but he's failed to beat a rival in two subsequent starts, last of 4 in handicap at Newbury (16f, good to firm) 18 days ago when finding little. Others appeal more.

9/1
A fairly useful winning hurdler last summer. Off 8 months/had a wind op before coming in sixth of 9 in handicap at Chester (15.9f, soft) 28 days ago when ridden too aggressively. Cheekpieces back on and can take a step forward here.

5/1
Winless since 2023 but he comes here on the back of a good second of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (14f, good to firm) 21 days ago. One to consider off the same mark.

Bagged his first two races at Newmarket and Southwell and posted a good second of 4 on his handicap debut at Salisbury (12f, good to firm) 17 days ago having reared start. Can go well again with few miles on the clock.

Got off the mark at Wolverhampton in February and has remained in good order, bumping into a pair of in-form rivals but nicely clear of remainder on turf debut at York on Friday.

In good form before scoring over hurdles at Fontwell (2m2f) 32 days ago. Blinkers worn there go on here and he merits serious consideration off a lenient-looking mark.

Forecasts

Tremorgio (3/1), Creatif (7/2), Calvert (5/1), Trojan Storm (11/2), Brave Knight (9/1), Junkanoo (12/1), Clockmaker (14/1), Diamond Bay (16/1), La Pulga (18/1)

Verdict

This is wide open but JUNKANOO could prove handily weighted on the back of a hurdling success at Fontwell so edges the vote from Charlie Appleby's low-mileage Tremorgio. Creatif, Calvert and Brave Knight can also have a say in this competitive handicap.
