All 3 wins at this C&D, but last of 8 in handicap at Ayr (12/1) 43 days ago, leading but weakening on heavy ground. Return to this surface therefore a plus.

Has shown better form on AW surfaces, finishing second before winning a 6-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5/4) 24 days ago in straightforward fashion. Nudged up 2 lb and he can remain competitive.

Consistent performer with solid recent form, finishing second of 10 in handicap at Catterick (9/2) 34 days ago, staying on well after being switched. Should continue to give a good account.

Has shown ability despite being tricky to settle, with a second at Epsom and third at Windsor. Sixth of 14 in handicap at Kempton on stable debut 16 days ago, catching the eye with a strong late finish after racing off the pace. Has the ability to win races from this sort of mark on the AW.

Poor form for much of 2025 but down in the weights and more like it when third of 14 in handicap at Newmarket (22/1) 21 days ago when held up and kept on well late on. Proven on AW.

Won seller at Leicester in October then 8th of 14 in handicap at Redcar (11/1) 17 days ago for new yard. May need more from this mark on return to AW.

Much more like it since gelding operation, winning over C&D last month and second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9/2) 24 days ago, running on well despite patient tactics not suiting the pace. Will continue to give a good account.

Forecasts

Shiplake (15/8), Star Of Mali (16/5), King Of Ithaca (11/2), Federal Envoy (13/2), Captain Parma (10/1), Jodhpur Blue (14/1), He's A Gentleman (20/1), Chola Empire (20/1), City Cyclone (22/1), Valentine Catcher (25/1), Packetofbiscuits (25/1), Stoneywell (33/1), Beauty Choice (40/1), Toomuchforme (100/1)

Verdict

STAR OF MALI has looked a totally different proposition over 7f on the AW, winning comfortably here 28 days ago and he looks poised to follow up from 3 lb higher. King of Ithaca, a three-time C&D winner, should be in the mix returning to his favoured track while Captain Parma has improved since being gelded and completes the shortlist.
