James McHenry^p1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: E Bethell| OR: 90

13/2

Runner-up in the 2024 Cambridgeshire. Backed up his previous run when fifth of 12 in a better race at Musselburgh on latest start and looks well worth a go in first-time cheekpieces. Likely to be in the mix for his in-form yard.

Form: 42/0-945

Ammes^v²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: James Owen| OR: 89

4/1

Has been flying too high in top-end juvenile hurdles in recent months, though he had solid form in similar events to this on the Flat last summer and can go close if returning in similar heart.

Form: 16523-6

Fierce Fortitude⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Rowan Scott| T: K P De Foy| OR: 86

7/4

€145,000 Mehmas gelding opened his account in a Brighton novice (7f) in September and having been gelded, he progressed again when close second on handicap debut/reappearance at Wolverhampton. Makes plenty of appeal to go one better on return to turf.

Form: 4321-2

Raulin¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 84| CD

9/2

Notched the first of 3 successes over C&D last season and he's entitled to be more competitive than he was on reappearance at Ripon, following further respite from the handicapper.

Form: 44116-7

Diderot¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Ryan Sexton| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 81| D

33/1

Never looked like ending his losing run when sixth of 9 in a 1m handicap here on latest start and remains one to treat with caution.

Form: V8/9-7R6

Project Geofin¹⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: P J McDonald| T: G R Oldroyd| OR: 77| D

5/1

Runner-up in a C&D handicap last November, but that form has taken a few knocks subsequently, and he needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Newcastle later that month.

Form: 116429-

Urban Road^v¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-5| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: A D Brown| OR: 72| D

16/1

Encouraging to see this 8-time all-weather winner match the best of his form when runner-up over C&D last time, though this is a stronger race.

Fierce Fortitude (7/4), Ammes (4/1), Raulin (9/2), Project Geofin (5/1), Thunder Wonder (6/1), James McHenry (13/2), Austrian Theory (8/1), Urban Road (16/1), Diderot (33/1)

Improving FIERCE FORTITUDE finished a solid second at Wolverhampton on reappearance and is fancied to make his second start in handicaps a winning one. Ammes and James McHenry can both go well back down in grade, the former particularly appealing on the best of his form from last summer.
