Won 3 times last year and stepped up on reappearance run whilst shaping as if still working his way back to full fitness when fifth of 9 at Pontefract (1m, soft) a fortnight ago. Solid claims down in class.

15/2
Lightly-raced filly who opened her account after 11 weeks off here in September. Seemed stretched by the longer trip at Kempton (11f) when last seen in November and, though this will be a more suitable test, she looks vulnerable.

Gambled on in first-time cheekpieces and snapped losing run when keeping on well to bag a C&D handicap 15 days ago. 4 lb rise fair enough and he has to enter calculations.

7/2
Rattled off a hat-trick in classified company for Daragh Bourke in January (final win over C&D). Hasn't done a great deal wrong in 3 starts for new yard and she should be on the premises with headgear back on.

Would be a serious contender off this mark if anywhere near her best but she ended 2025 on a bit of a downer.

Forecasts

Kaaranah (11/10), Eagles Whistle (7/2), Nuptown Girl (6/1), Distinction (6/1), Karakula (15/2), Moonlit Cloud (25/1)

Verdict

If DISTINCTION is able to build on his latest effort at Pontefract he could be the answer. The 8-y-o is now 4 lb lower in the weights compared to when scoring at Kempton last summer. Kaaranah could be the main danger, ahead of Eagles Whistle.
