Back to best in first-time cheekpieces when fast-finishing second of 9 at Lingfield (20/1) in January. Went without headgear when last of 10 at this C&D (7/2) 23 days ago and it's straight back on for this run.

Deservedly got off the mark in C&D handicap (8 ran, 8/1) 13 days ago. Up only 1 lb and has 5-lb claimer taking the ride, so looks of obvious interest.

It's now 13 starts since her last win, though she was placed twice in the autumn. Might have needed the run after 10-week break when tenth of 11 at Kempton (11/1) 17 days ago but her temperament remains a concern.

Three-time winner in the first half of 2025 for Jane Chapple-Hyam but offered nothing in 5 starts for Thomas Faulkner. Lots to prove on the back of another stable switch.

Runner-up twice this winter before going one better at Southwell (7f) 10 days ago. 3 lb rise looks fair and he should go well again.

Landed a gamble when off the mark at Dundalk (7f) in October. Shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 11 there (11/8F) next time and is worth betting check having since left Charles Byrnes.

Badly out of sorts and seemed to take little interest when last of 12 at Kempton (11/1) when last seen in November. Breathing operation since needs to have had a major effect.

Won at Kempton in December and shaped as if back in form when fifth of 9 in a classified event at Lingfield (9/2) 23 days ago, finishing with running left having lacked room in the straight. Player back in a handicap.

Verdict

SANDITON produced several good efforts in defeat before finally getting off the mark at this C&D 13 days ago and, with Jack Callan taking 5 lb off, is fancied to follow up, with fellow last-time-out winner Hint of The Jungle and Vitalline - better than the result last time - also shortlisted.
