Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: N Callan| T: George Baker| OR: 90| D

Won minor event at Sakhir in early-2025. Placed twice there this year but generally below form otherwise, just seventh at Nottingham 15 days ago.

Form: 920357

Zoulu Chief¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Watson| T: H Main| OR: 89| CD

5/1

Scored at Wolverhampton in November. Off 3 months before a fading tenth of 13 in handicap at Leicester (6f) 16 days ago. This C&D winner can take a step forward.

Form: 2321-30

(7)

Badri⁴⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: M Herrington| OR: 87| CD

13/2

Generally consistent sort. Not best positioned when beating one in 6f Newcastle handicap last time and this C&D winner is in the mix.

Form: 54-2740

Diligently¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Saffie Osborne| T: C G Cox| OR: 84| CD

11/4

C&D winner. In good nick this spring, not clear run 2f out when fourth of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (6f) 10 days ago. Remains low mileage and he's a likely player off a 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 0912-44

Change Sings^p²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 83| D

9/2

Without a win since May 2024 but in decent nick this spring, sixth of 16 in handicap at Newbury (6f) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces go back on.

Purest Time⁹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Edward Greatrex| T: Ian Williams| OR: 82| D

12/1

It's now seventeen runs since last win in 2024 and he came in only seventh of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) 94 days ago.

Form: 230-507

An Outlaw's Grace^p³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Joe Leavy| T: R Hannon| OR: 80| BF| D

16/1

Winless since his debut but not disgraced of late, racing wide when sixth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 31 days ago. No forlorn hope off a slipping mark.

Form: 0/83-776

Carbine Harvester³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Harry Burns⁽³⁾| T: W J Haggas| OR: 78| DWS

16/1

A 4-time winner on all-weather. Yet to fire in 3 runs on that surface this year though and returns after a breathing operation with more needed back on turf.

Form: 032-570

(6)

Under The Twilight¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 8-10| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Blake| OR: 77| CD

4/1

C&D winner who comes here on the back of a good second of 7 in handicap at Leicester (6f) 16 days ago.

Form: 0078-62

Forecasts

Diligently (11/4), Under The Twilight (4/1), Photosynthesis (4/1), Change Sings (9/2), Zoulu Chief (5/1), Badri (13/2), Purest Time (12/1), Accrual (14/1), An Outlaw's Grace (16/1), Carbine Harvester (16/1), Desert Cop (22/1)

Clive Cox's DILIGENTLY rates the pick of the weights and can also boast winning C&D form so edges the vote from resurgent Ascot fourth Photosynthesis. Badri, Under The Twilight and An Outlaw's Grace also merit consideration.
