M.C.H. Hutchinson Memorial Trophy Handicap (GBBPlus Race)

Consistent handicapper who ran well in competitive company last autumn, most notably when 4 lengths fourth in the Ebor at York and when fifth in November Handicap at Doncaster. Has gone well fresh in the past and stable in fine fettle at present.

Sparked back to life with 3½ lengths second of 12 to Berkshire Sundance in All-Weather Marathon at Newcastle 22 days ago. Competitively handicapped back on turf but drop back in trip a slight concern.

Useful sort who bagged a 1½m Goodwood handicap in August but shaped as if amiss when last seen at Newcastle the following month. Starting out for new yard that looks to have stronger options on paper and the market is likely to prove the best guide as to expectations.

Dual winner in 2025 and ran a cracker on return from 5-month break when second of 13 in a handicap at Musselburgh (9/2) 21 days ago. A winner at this course twice previously, she's often a hostage to fortune given her patient running style but seems sure to go well.

Useful form at his best at up to 1½m in France for Francis-Henri Graffard. Shaped as if better for run when eighth in handicap at Doncaster last month on debut for current connections. Big player if stepping forward from that effort here.

Dual C&D winner who scored twice last season, latterly at Catterick in October. Shaped as if very much in need of the run after 5-month absence at Thirsk 2 weeks ago. Races from 1 lb out of the handicap.
