Virgin Bet A Good Bet Rosebery Handicap (GBBPlus Race)

Showed signs of temperament towards the end of a winless 4-y-o season for the Gosdens but has made a positive start for current connections, close third in the Winter Derby at Lingfield 5 weeks ago. More needed if he's to defy top weight back in a handicap, though.

Reliable veteran who a good third in this last year but others look better treated.

Has enjoyed a highly productive all-weather season but last 2 starts suggest he's got no room for manoeuvre from his revised mark.

Narrow winner at Chester on return last season and firmly back on the up when successful at Ayr final start, proving himself well ahead of his mark tried at this trip for just the second time. 6 lb rise doesn't look insurmountable so big shout if proving as effective on AW.

Useful form in France last season, winning twice. Subsequently sold from Y. Barberot for €100,000. Off 9 months and has work to do off this mark.

Largely progressive form, winning twice last season before runner-up in ultra-competitive 3-y-o handicaps at Newmarket and Glorious Goodwood. Proved a let-down in Cambridgeshire final outing but type to bounce back.

Has continued his progress this year, settling better switched to front-running tactics when landing the odds at Chelmsford 16 days ago. Looks a smart prospect so good chance he can defy 8 lb rise.

Arrives at the top of his game having won his last 2 starts here, further enhancing his superb course record. Remains unexposed over this sort of trip and sure to go well again.

Often misses the break but won Newbury handicap for second consecutive year in September. However, refused to race final start and best treated with caution.

Looked useful when making second start a winning one at Windsor in August. Failed to advance his form next 2 starts but is in excellent hands and remains unexposed (has been gelded).

Showed improved form last season, winning twice at Ascot. Slow start to this year but more encouraging signs at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and return to this trip will suit.

Reliable sort but not seen since a couple of rare below-par efforts last summer. Starts new season on winning mark at least.

Completed a hat-trick in the first half of 2025 and resumed winning ways/progress after 8 months off at Newcastle 32 days ago, looking suited by the step up in trip. Can go well again.
