Won this race last year off 4lb higher; game effort to win at Doncaster latest; contender
11 (10)	Physique b J:Oisin Murphy T:Pam Sly	J:Oisin Murphy T:Pam Sly	122	h	1009-4	86	114	101	16d	—	—	-4	14.2	4/1 20%
Promising stable debut at Doncaster 16 days ago; possible slower ground would suit better
5 (7)	Aramram b J:Joe Leavy(3) T:Richard Hannon	J:Joe Leavy(3) T:Richard Hannon	127	—	217-22	91	115	-	9d	—	—	+1	13.9	6/1 14%
Two fine efforts in defeat on AW this year; well treated; major player once again
2 (3)	Elmonjed b J:Jim Crowley T:William Haggas	J:Jim Crowley T:William Haggas	132	—	63311-	96	113	87	234d	—	—	+22	34.2	13/2 13%
Ended 3yo campaign with two big-field 6f wins on fast ground; absence of blinkers a query
1 (6)	Woodhay Wonder b J:P J McDonald T:Tom Ward	J:P J McDonald T:Tom Ward	135	—	11430-	99	112	101	207d	—	—	+12	22	8/1 11%
3-3 over C&D, including a win at this meeting on her return in 2024; should go well
10 (1)	More Thunder b J:Tom Marquand T:William Haggas	J:Tom Marquand T:William Haggas	123	—	51323-	87	109	91	200d	—	—	+14	22.6	10/1 9%
Unexposed 4yo but all runs for former yard over 1m1f+; dam a smart sprinter; intriguing
4 (12)	Vantheman b J:Jamie Spencer T:Kevin Ryan	J:Jamie Spencer T:Kevin Ryan	127	—	20154-	91	112	105	186d	—	—	+11	18.2	12/1 8%
Two wins & some good runs in defeat last year, all at 5f; stays 6f; one to take seriously
9 (4)	Probe b J:Kieran O'Neill T:Jennie Candlish	J:Kieran O'Neill T:Jennie Candlish	124	h	916/60	88	111	49	16d	—	—	+5	11.2	14/1 7%
Strong C&D form; retains ability after long absence; slower ground perhaps ideal though
8 (13)	Trefor b J:Jason Watson T:Charles Hills	J:Jason Watson T:Charles Hills	125	—	41105-	89	113	91	246d	—	—	+14	19.4	16/1 6%
Second to Woodhay Wonder here last year; conditions will suit and still not fully exposed
13 (9)	Twilight Romance b J:Silvestre De Sousa T:John & Sean Quinn	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:John & Sean Quinn	117	—	05-655	81	110	90	22d	—	—	+4	9.4	16/1 6%
In better order than his formfigures suggest; returning to fast turf can help; hood off
3 (11)	Indian Run br J:James Doyle T:Julie Camacho	J:James Doyle T:Julie Camacho	132	—	/6000-	96	108	74	235d	—	—	+9	12.3	40/1 2%
Smart 2yo; struggled badly in 2024; sold 40,000gns & gelded; new yard drop him back to 6f
6 (2)	First Folio gr J:Ryan Sexton T:Julie Camacho	J:Ryan Sexton T:Julie Camacho	126	e/s	43416-	90	110	94	164d	—	—	+16	18.6	40/1 2%

12 (8)	Ararat b J:Hollie Doyle T:Robert Cowell	J:Hollie Doyle T:Robert Cowell	120	—	6157-0	84	110	87	17d	—	—	+6	9.3	40/1 2%
