Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 71

9/4

Still a maiden but he only just failed to reel in a better-placed rival at Lingfield 2 weeks ago so needs considering in first-time headgear.

2/1

Has done well since joining this yard and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick after a career-best win over 1m here last month, well on top finish (race worked out).

Prodigal Son^b¹³

5/2

Had some good novice form last spring and finally put it all together when off the mark in a change of headgear here (1m) on return 2 weeks ago. That form is backed up by the clock and he's bred to stay this far.

9/2

Veteran who ended losing run in decisive style over C&D 2 weeks ago but will do well to follow up in better race off 5 lb higher.

The thriving GALAXY WONDER can complete the hat-trick after beating a subsequent winner in good style over 1m here last time. Prodigal Son's reappearance win here was no way a fluke and he rates the main threat ahead of Criminal, who went very close to breaking his duck at Lingfield 2 weeks ago.
