Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: R A Teal| OR: 88| DWS

15/2

Useful three-time winner over this trip, including in a strong handicap at York last June. Failed to build on an encouraging reappearance run when down the field at Ascot last time but drops in grade (back at last winning mark) and merits consideration after a breathing operation.

Form: 8458-48

Sudden Flight^p²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 87| D

4/1

Successful twice on all-weather in 2025. Rated lower on turf but has fared better than previously on this surface in 3 starts this season, just failing to get back up on the line in a 7-runner handicap at Salisbury (6f, good, 17/2) 27 days ago. Leading player.

Form: 100-322

Another Abbot^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: P J Dobbs| T: W J Haggas| OR: 86| D

4/1

Confirmed promise of this season's reappearance when adding to his tally at Yarmouth in May, pulling clear with a next-time-out winner. Not much impact from higher marks on his last 2 outings, though has since been eased 2 lb since his latest Ascot start.

Form: 04-7177

Nad Alshiba Green⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jack Nicholls⁽³⁾| T: C G Cox| OR: 86

28/1

Made a highly encouraging start for new yard on her return from 6 months off, well-backed when second at Wolverhampton, and improved to finish third of 10 at Nottingham next time. Disappointing when only sixth of 7 in handicap at this C&D last time and overall strike rate tempers enthusiasm.

Form: 060-236

Willem Twee^v¹¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: George Bass| T: D J Coakley| OR: 85| D

50/1

Smart on all-weather in his prime. Not the force of old but ran creditably enough behind a couple of younger rivals when third of 6 at Wolverhampton (7f, 9/1) when last seen in April. Lightly raced without much success on turf of late, though, so probably opposable having left James Fanshawe.

Brosay^b¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Kieren Fox| T: Charlie Pike| OR: 85| CD

16/1

Recorded back-to-back wins for Paul Attwater last season, the first of those coming at C&D. No better than mid-field for his current stable and others look more solid propositions at present, for all he's dropped in grade from a reduced mark this time.

Dandana⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Egan| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 90| D

25/1

Won 6f novices on first 2 starts last summer before finishing 5½ lengths fourth of 11 to Royal Fixation when stepped up to Group 2 company in the Lowther at York. Offered little on return/handicap debut back at York last month and she's still probably a shade high in the weights.

Form: 1140-0

Star Chorus^h¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rob Hornby| T: M Murphy| OR: 84| D

25/1

Won twice at Southwell early this year (over 6f on latter start). Had excuses initially back on turf and he was much more like his true self when fifth at C&D last month. Did enough positive late work to suggest he remains in form at Newmarket last time and he's interesting back up in trip.

Ancient State^e/c,t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: William Carson| T: Adam Kirby| OR: 83| D

20/1

Has improved for the switch to Adam Kirby this year, bagging a third win in 5-runner event at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) last month. Not entirely disgraced up in grade when a never-nearer fifth of 12 in handicap at York (5f, good to firm) 17 days ago, though looked awkward and might need more here

Mesaafi^b¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: R Burdon| OR: 81| C| D

8/1

Resumed winning ways over 5f here last month and was unlucky not to finish even closer when beaten a half-length into fourth at that at the same C&D next time. Struggled in a better race at Ascot since and has disadvantageous draw to contend with back up in trip.

Maelstrom^t1²⁵²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Gina Mangan| T: S C Williams| OR: 81| D

16/1

Progressed again to land a hat-trick at Haydock last May and shaped well to finish third in a big-field event at Newbury (6f, heavy) in October prior to flopping on the all-weather. Returns from 8 months off (gelded) in a first-time tongue strap (left William Haggas only 7,500gns).

Regional Rock³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 85| BF| CD

15/2

Son of Territories who created a smashing impression when scoring on debut in a C&D maiden. Absent for over a year after his next start but shaped as if retaining all ability when a neck second in an 8-runner novice at Doncaster (6f, firm, 2/9) 31 days ago. Should improve now handicapping.

Form: 12-2

(7)

Amazonian Dream^p⁷^{(ex 4)}

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman| OR: 73| CD

10/3

Has a good record at C&D, runner-up on back to back starts in June/July prior to going one place better to notch a fourth C&D success last week. Carries a penalty in a stronger race now.

Forecasts

Amazonian Dream (10/3), Another Abbot (4/1), Sudden Flight (4/1), Regional Rock (15/2), Hucklesbrook (15/2), Mesaafi (8/1), Uncle Don (10/1), Maelstrom (16/1), Brosay (16/1), Ancient State (20/1), Dandana (25/1), Star Chorus (25/1), Nad Alshiba Green (28/1), Willem Twee (50/1)

REGIONAL ROCK went like the best horse at the weights until his lack of race fitness seemed to tell on his return at Doncaster and Ralph Beckett's gelding can make a winning handicap debut. Hucklesbrook is interesting dropped in grade, with Sudden Flight also considered on the back of his Salisbury effort.
