Gorgeous Mr George²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 82| D

10/1

Landed a pair of 1m handicaps at Yarmouth in June. Not disgraced with fourth of 6 in 7f handicap there 24 days ago. In the mix once more.

Form: 888114

Frankies Dream^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: S D Bowen| T: J Candlish| OR: 80

9/2

Won 6 times in the first half of last year. Has returned in good nick, placed 4 times before going too freely at York and Ascot (set a lot to do when eighth) on his last 2 runs. Handily weighted and not without interest.

Form: 332378

Capital Guarantee²³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Mark Winn| T: D O'Meara| OR: 79| D

12/1

Gained a first win of 2026 in 6-runner handicap at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 23 days ago. Up 4 lb but that form is working out well so he's not taken lightly.

Form: 209061

Paladin²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: William Pyle| T: K Frost| OR: 79| CD

5/1

Took this 12 months ago and comes here on the back of a good second of 8 in handicap at Ascot (1m, firm) 29 days ago. A likely player in his bid for a second win of 2026 (scored at Wolverhampton in January).

Form: 725-102

(11)

Mr Mistoffelees^p,t1¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 76| D

18/1

Not easy to win with but comes here in good form, runner-up for second consecutive start in handicap at Newcastle (1m) 14 days ago. In the picture once more.

Form: 6-87522

(14)

Harry The Rogue^v1⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: T Eaves| T: S Hanlon| OR: 76| D

33/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2025 and only thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (1m) 43 days ago. Visor goes on for 1st time.

Form: 324900

Amidst The Chaos^p²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Alex Jary⁽³⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 75| BF| D

16/1

Cheekpieces on when adding to his tally at Pontefract (1m) in June but run of good form ended with fifth of 7 in handicap over C&D 20 days ago. Bounce back needed.

Form: 342125

(7)

Nyman²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Roger Fell| OR: 73

11/1

Yet to score this term but took a step back in right direction with fourth of 7 in handicap over C&D 20 days ago. Not out of things if building on that.

Form: 644064

(6)

Welbury^p³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: E Bethell| OR: 79| D

9/1

Got back on the up with success in 9-runner handicap at Pontefract (1m, good) 32 days ago, settling better than of late. That form has been franked so he can go very well despite a 5 lb weights rise.

Form: 5-12241

(3)

Illy's Roo¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joanna Mason| T: G Tutty| OR: 78| D

7/2

Gained a second success for Gemma Tutty at York (1m) in July and backed it up with a good fifth of 11 in handicap at Ascot (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago, hampered late on. Can make his presence felt again off the same mark.

Form: 877715

(2)

Sea The Power⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Swift| T: S Spencer| OR: 77| D

40/1

Lightly-raced 1m juvenile winner for Adrian Keatley. Off 7 months and only ninth of 10 for new yard in handicap at Haydock (1m, good) in May. Needs to take a big step forward.

Form: 3716-9

(4)

Barley^p¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 69| D

11/2

Thirty two runs since last win in 2024 but he's running well this season, placed for sixth time with third of 15 in handicap at York (1m, good to firm) 14 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts once more.

Form: 232333

(8)

Chesneys Charm¹⁰⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh Keenan| T: I Furtado| OR: 68WS

66/1

Has twice run poorly since a solid reappearance seventh at Southwell (7f) in March for Grant Tuer. Needs a subsequent breathing operation and yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Form: 448-760

(9)

Vince Le Prince^p,t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 66| BF| C

40/1

Twenty three runs since his last win in 2024 but back on track with second of 8 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago. This course winner can't be discounted in a change of headgear.

Form: 275302

Forecasts

Illy's Roo (7/2), Frankies Dream (9/2), Paladin (5/1), Barley (11/2), Welbury (9/1), Gorgeous Mr George (10/1), Nyman (11/1), Capital Guarantee (12/1), Amidst The Chaos (16/1), Mr Mistoffelees (18/1), Harry The Rogue (33/1), Sea The Power (40/1), Vince Le Prince (40/1), Chesneys Charm (66/1)

This is wide open. FRANKIES DREAM hasn't enjoyed the rub of the green on his last 2 runs at York and Ascot and can now capitalise on a handy-looking mark and gain a first win of 2026. Last year's victor Paladin teed himself up well for a repeat when runner-up at Ascot and heads the list of dangers. Illy's Roo, Capital Guarantee and Welbury can all play a prominent role too in this highly competitive event.
