12/1
Largely progressive form in 2025, including runner-up in ultra-competitive 3-y-o handicaps at the Newmarket July meeting and Glorious Goodwood. Respectable efforts on first 2 runs this season but ran poorly with cheekpieces added (discarded) at Newmarket 8 weeks ago. Bounce back needed.

Useful performer who has returned with good placed efforts at Newbury (1¼m) and Sandown (1m). Likely to go well again.

Recorded 5 wins in excellent 2025 and carried on progression when easily making all in 1m course apprentice handicap on reappearance. Disappointed at Redcar 11 days later and freshened up since.

Different proposition 7 months on from his debut (gelded) when landing 8-runner maiden at Pontefract on return in April. Improved again when second of 3 in novice company at Hamilton and he's open to further progress now moving into handicaps.

Useful 2-y-o in 2025 but well held in 1m Kempton conditions race on reappearance in March. Off again since. Starts out in handicaps from a mark which isn't obviously generous.

14/1
C&D winner who stepped up on his reappearance when fourth of 12 in C&D handicap (good) in April. Well beaten at Newmarket since but his record here makes him a dangerous one to discount.

Won 7f maiden/novice events on first 2 starts last autumn. Ran as if amiss on his next 2 outings but got his career back on track having been gelded when close second over C&D in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 24 days ago. Needs to prove he can back that up now.

Progressive juvenile (2-4) and took another big step forward after 8 months off (also gelded) when successful over 1m here in April. Good third (Pandemonium narrowly ahead in second) of 7 over C&D latest, conceding first run. Should go well again.

12/1
Enjoyed a remarkable 2025, winning 6 times at up to 1¼m. Picked up where he'd left off when runner-up on C&D reappearance but hasn't reproduced that form since, albeit latest Ayr fourth was respectable. Even a return to his very best is unlikely to be good enough here from 4 lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

High Degree (1/1), Haayimm (5/1), Strength of Spirit (6/1), Dwindling Funds (12/1), Pandemonium (12/1), Marhaba Ghaiyyath (12/1), Thunder Wonder (14/1), Monoceros (16/1), Two B Tanned (28/1), Rochfortbridge (40/1)

Verdict

A useful handicap. HAAYIMM rather stands out as a progressive sort and can make a successful start to his handicap career. High Degree and Strength of Spirit might be the pair to give him most to do.
