6/5
C&D winner around this time last year and also sprung a huge surprise over hurdles here in February. Heavy defeats in better handicaps during the spring but he should be competitive at this level returned to the all-weather.

5/1
Down in the weights and shaped quite well when fourth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (1¾m) 17 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Tongue strap back on and cheekpieces for the first time, he makes plenty of appeal up in distance.

8/1
No show at long odds on first 3 starts this year but cashed in on a falling mark/drop in grade in refitted cheekpieces at Southwell a month ago. 4 lb rise won't prevent a bold follow-up bid for that stylish success.

9/2
Left previous form for this yard (matching the level he achieved in France) when a 40/1 winner over this C&D 4 weeks ago. Value for extra on the day given he was held up in a steadily-run race so he needs considering.

Maiden but was knocking on the door from this sort of mark in 2025 for Andrew Balding, second of 8 at Newcastle in October. Joined another successful yard and headgear left off for reappearance.

22/1
Ex-French performer who changed hands for 15,000 gns (also gelded) and he showed a bit when 5½ lengths fifth of 9 to Now The Eagle in C&D handicap on British debut 28 days ago. Task is to now build on that.

Third in a pair of 2m all-weather handicaps in September but turned in a poor effort when last of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford (1¾m) when last seen, albeit hampered. Off 6 months.

Forecasts

Gooloogong (6/5), Now The Eagle (9/2), Crackergee (5/1), Haaland (8/1), Karthon (9/1), Rogue Empire (14/1), Port Of Entry (22/1), Capone (28/1)

Verdict

CRACKERGEE's propensity to blow the start remains a cause for concern but the step up to 2m will help him so he's given the tentative nod from his career-low mark. Haaland is the obvious threat following his ready Southwell win, with Now The Eagle also a last-time-out scorer.
