Made it 4 wins from 5 starts when scoring in cosy fashion at Ripon on penultimate outing. However, after a further 4 lb rise in the weights she found things tougher when down the field in race won by Magic Boy here last time.

Enhanced fine record at Newcastle with back-to-back wins to start this year. Good effort when close third at Ripon in May but has run poorly the last twice, over this C&D on his latest outing 6 weeks ago.

Successful at Newcastle in October and has been in decent heart at the same course in 3 starts this year, not ideally placed when fifth of 11 when last seen in March. Has run well fresh in the past (shaped encouragingly in this race on last season's return).

Has been working his way back to form for current yard this season, again making the frame over this C&D when 2¼ lengths fourth of 19 to Magic Boy 13 days ago (probably would have finished third had he not met late interference). Could be in the mix.

Off the mark for the year at Catterick in April and has returned to a similar level last 3 starts, beaten by only a neck when second at the same course 9 days ago. Wide draw not ideal but he remains 2 lb lower than for this latest success.

Successful 3 times at around 5f last season, with latest win at Bath in September. Possibly still needed the run when sixth of 8 at Windsor in June, though he's been off again since and is still 2 lb above his last winning mark.

Won first 2 starts when trained by Stuart Williams but without a victory since. However, there have been positive signs for current yard the last twice, third of 10 at Newmarket 20 days ago, despite not getting much cover. Major player eased slightly in grade.

11/4
Made a promising return when runner-up at Ripon and built on that at the second time of asking when landing 19-runner contest over this C&D 13 days ago. Looked suited by the drop back to 6f then and he's not taken lightly with more still to offer.

Suited by a sound pace when getting back to winning ways at Pontefract on first outing last month. Placed on next 2 starts before left poorly placed when well held over C&D 13 days ago. Remains on a workable mark based on last season's form.

Quirky sort who went without a win last year, but ran better than for a while when fourth of 8 at Southwell (7f) in January. However, he added to his in-and-out profile of late when running poorly at Newcastle next time. Absent over 5 months since. Watch the betting.

Off the mark at Newcastle (5f) in October and made the frame there 2 of next 3 starts. Looked rusty after 5 months off when never dangerous over this C&D 6 weeks ago, so this run should reveal more (finished third in final race on this card last year).

Finally off the mark at Carlisle (7f) last month and followed up with a ready success dropped to 5f at Ayr 19 days ago. Arrives in top form but her tendency to start slowly means she needs things to drop right. Cheekpieces on first time.

Back to his best when just failing at Wolverhampton (7f) in February and wasn't seen to best effect on turf next 2 outings. Not discredited when 3 lengths fifth of 6 to Glory Hyde at Ripon (6f) last time, though has shaped as if a return to 7f would suit.

Regular front runner who was successful twice last spring, including over C&D. Added to his tally at Nottingham last month and shaped as if still in good form when 1¾ lengths third of 5 at Hamilton 13 days ago. Back up in grade but he's capable of another bold bid.

Without a win since scoring on handicap debut 2 years ago when trained by Michael Dods. Making stable debut, possibly needed the run after 9 months off when down the field here 13 days ago, though others still preferred.

Slow starter but successful in this race the last 2 years and looked unlucky not to win at Southwell in April. Has made the frame twice since, before shaping as if possibly amiss at Pontefract last time. One to note from only 1 lb above last winning mark with cheekpieces added.

Ended 2025 in good heart and has picked up where he left off, producing his best effort this season when ¾-length third of 10 to Dorney Lake at Doncaster (5.6f, firm) 15 days ago. Back up in grade but can give his running once more.

Got away on terms for a change and belatedly capitalised on his much-reduced mark at Doncaster (5.6f) on first outing this month. Backed that up under a penalty when second of 6 at Pontefract (6f) 7 days ago, though has wide draw to overcome in this tougher race.

Verdict

RAJAKING has been going the right way in his 3 starts for this stable, not seen to best effect but still finishing third at Newmarket last time, and he could be ready to take advantage of his reduced mark. Heading the list of dangers is Magic Boy, who showed improved form when winning here 13 days ago, with Dicko The Legend and Ingleby Archie others to consider.
