Fidelius²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Jack Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 89| D

11/2

Doubled tally for 2026 at Lingfield in March and still in top form when second of 6 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 9/4) 25 days ago, edged out final strides. Another bold bid forthcoming.

Form: 3-21212

Sturlasson²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: William Carson| T: J Ryan| OR: 88| D

5/1

Third win of a productive autumn at Southwell in November. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good) 20 days ago and more needed to defy current mark.

Form: 13214-5

Ruby's Profit^h1,t²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Jack Doughty| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 87| D

9/2

Successful twice last spring, including on last season's reappearance but shaped as though needing the run this time when 9½ lengths last of 14 to Azure Angel in listed race at this C&D 29 days ago. Hood on first time and dangerous if getting into her rhythm.

Regal Envoy^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Taylor Fisher| T: W J Knight| OR: 85| CD

5/1

Can boast a pretty good strike rate and while he couldn't match last year's win in the race, he made a sound return to action when third of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good) 20 days ago. Weighted to go well.

Form: 08806-3

Angel Shared²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: D C Costello| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 84| CD

11/4

Rattled off a Newmarket hat-trick last summer and stepped up markedly on reappearance when 1¾ lengths fifth of 14 to Azure Angel in listed race at this C&D (good, 40/1) 29 days ago. Big player as she figures on her last winning mark.

Form: 1108-75

Moulin Booj³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Darragh Keenan| T: George Scott| OR: 83| CD

9/2

Built on comeback run when winning at Wolverhampton in March. Sent off 33/1 but he shaped well when sixth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 31 days ago. Shortlist material back at 5f.

Form: 54-4106

Forecasts

Angel Shared (11/4), Ruby's Profit (9/2), Moulin Booj (9/2), Regal Envoy (5/1), Sturlasson (5/1), Fidelius (11/2), Marty Hopkirk (10/1), Desert Cop (10/1)

ANGEL SHARED ran a cracker from unfavourable terms in listed company over C&D a month ago and back in a handicap on her last winning mark, she makes plenty of appeal. Moulin Booj shaped well over 6f last time and is second choice, ahead of Fidelius.
