11/4

Better on all-weather than turf, landing this race last year before also winning next 2 starts. After 4 months off, creditable fourth of 8 in listed race over C&D (5/1) 27 days ago but looks somewhat up against it off top weight here.

Made it back-to-back 6f handicap wins at Kempton 16 days ago, taking his record on all-weather to 3 from 3. Could have yet more improvement in him.

11/4

Making just third start for current yard when scoring readily at Southwell (6.1f) in October. Caught wide from outside draw when third of 13 over same C&D (5/1) on New Year's Day, and has plenty going for him.

3/1

Won Doncaster novice on last year's return and improved further when second in handicap at York next time. Disappointed at Ascot both subsequent outings, but gelded since and had a good break ahead of this all-weather/seasonal debut.

15/2

Ended 2025 on a low-key note but made a sound return from 4 months off (had breathing operation) when fourth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (16/1) 6 weeks ago. On a handy mark if able to build on that.

Form: 45060-4

Without a win since debut but returned to form on second handicap start when third of 7 at Newmarket (11/2) last June. However, has been absent again since ahead of this all-weather debut.

Little Empire^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-4| J: Warren Fentiman⁽³⁾| T: A McCann| OR: 82

22/1

Successful twice over 7f last year and has been proving most consistent, in first-time cheekpieces when close third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (13/2) 3 weeks ago. In a higher grade now, however.

Form: 332-233

Forecasts

Ferrous (11/4), Lakers (11/4), Fast Track Harry (3/1), El Bodon (5/1), Sergeant Wilko (15/2), Little Empire (22/1), An Outlaw's Grace (25/1)

LAKERS has shown improved form switched to all-weather for current yard, doing well under the circumstances when third at Southwell on latest outing. He can see off the challenge of the hat-trick seeking El Bodon, while Fast Track Harry remains with potential on his return.
