Kept very busy on all-weather over the winter and returned from a break as good as ever when narrow winner over 2m here (Dereham remote third) in June. Good third back over hurdles since and can go well again.

Improved for new yard this summer, comfortable winner of a weak race at Lingfield (turf) under this rider and only just denied at Nottingham following week (clear of rest). Can make another bold bid.

Won 5 in a row for the Charlton stable in 2023/2024. Lightly raced and below form since, including all 4 starts this season for current yard (finished a remote second of 3 when tried in this headgear at Yarmouth 11 days ago).

Generally struggled for this yard but sprung a surprise at Redcar in June. Backed that up to an extent when second there 3 weeks ago, though it was a bit disappointing how she was readily brushed aside by the veteran winner.

Admirable stayer at this sort of level over the years. Has been unsuited by emphasis on speed both starts this season, never on terms when bidding to again win a race named in his honour here (2m) 6 weeks ago.

Ended 2025 out of form for Dominic Ffrench Davis but left his yard debut and return well behind back up in trip when just failing in this headgear at Lingfield (turf) under this rider 17 days ago, clear of rest. Back up in class now but he's respected.

Forecasts

Jack Langley (11/8), Prince Quattro (10/3), Fram Castle (10/3), Stitching Wheel (9/1), Baltic (11/1), Dereham (14/1)

Verdict

JACK LANGLEY has made a very positive start for his current yard and can quickly resume winning ways having just failed at Nottingham 5 weeks ago. Fram Castle has a similar profile to the selection so is second choice.
