Midnite AWC Middle Distance Trial Handicap (GBBPlus Race)

Has enjoyed a highly productive all-weather season but only fifth of 10 at Kempton (5/1) 30 days ago and looks up against it again from unchanged, career-high mark.

Fine strike rate since joining current yard and warmed up for this on the snow/ice at Saint Moritz 5 days ago. Handicapper looks in control now, however.

Landed fourth success of 2025 in the Cesarewitch and, following a break, shaped well in pair of competitive all-weather handicaps last month. Thriving sort set to be in the mix again.

Didn't pull up any trees in 3 handicaps at Meydan last month, and no sure thing to stay 1¼m.

Landed third win of 2025 over C&D and still at the top of his game when third of 5 in steadily-run listed race here on New Year's Eve. Widest stall no help, however.

Dual novice winner who was too free to justify support on handicap debut/reappearance at Newcastle last month. Stronger pace/refitted hood should help and he's well worth another chance off a potentially lenient mark.

Likeable type who improved again to complete hat-trick over C&D earlier this month, his sixth win in total from last 9 starts. Has earned a crack at a valuable pot but will need to pull out a bit more to maintain a perfect course record.

Strong stayer at the trip who proved better than ever when runner-up in competitive York handicap on final start last season. Has plenty in his favour following a pipe-opener in a slowly-run race at Newcastle last month.

Ran well on return from 6-month absence when third of 12 to Wyld Bill over C&D (11/1) 17 days ago, though it's difficult to envisage significant improvement given his record fresh.

Has fallen below last winning mark following last month's stable/all-weather debut. That will have blown away any cobwebs but he's typically best ridden positively and this could be set up for the closers.

Hasn't beat a rival on either start since a 6-month absence and Beylerbeyi looks a far stronger challenger for the yard.
