Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: K Shoemark| T: Oliver Cole| OR: 82| D

13/2

AW winner in December and matched picked of French form when second in a handicap in January. Cheekpieces on for first time when eighth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (1m) a month later and better expected at this track with blinkers returned.

Helm Rock^t,b¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 80| CD

3/1

Edged down towards last winning mark and stepped up on reappearance when good second of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 13 days ago. Stall 10 isn't ideal but he can give it another good go.

Form: 5810-62

Final Night¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J Butler| OR: 79| CD

6/4

Four-time C&D winner who was just about better than ever for latest of them in 13-runner handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another very bold bid.

Form: 1311-31

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Oliver Carmichael⁽⁷⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 76| CD

15/2

Three course wins in a productive second half to 2025, latest in October. 16/1, creditable 2¼ lengths fourth of 12 to Final Night in handicap at this C&D in December, needing stronger gallop.

Forecasts

Final Night (11/4), Helm Rock (3/1), Ted Le Saux (3/1), Mr Baloo (7/1), Silca Bay (7/1), Redbud Sixteen (8/1), Champagne Powder (8/1), Greatbritishdream (14/1), Brave Byreflection (14/1), Valentine Boy (16/1)

This track may be more suitable than Newcastle last time for CHAMPAGNE POWDER and with that race working out well, he looks interesting eased slightly in class. The thriving Final Night was ahead of the selection there and can boast a formidable record over C&D so he's on the shortlist, along with Helm Rock.
