5-y-o filly who went winless last year but eased in weights and she again ran well when second of 7 in handicap at this C&D 52 days ago, no match for winner. Should give another good account.

Course winner. Latest win at Ayr in September. Below form sixth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 27 days ago. Eased 1 lb ahead of this and better showing certainly not ruled out.

Castan²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: D C Costello| T: B Smart| OR: 66| CD

3/1

C&D winner who hasn't been operating at same level as last winter but turned in another creditable display when fourth of 12 in a C&D handicap 24 days ago. Can play a part again from this sort of mark.

Gustav Graves¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 8-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: D Shaw| OR: 55| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Four wins from 18 runs last year. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 18/1) 12 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Sanat (2/1), Castan (3/1), Thunder Star (6/1), Gustav Graves (13/2), Water Of Leith (15/2), Wrestling Revenue (17/2), Rodborough (14/1)

SANAT was steadily progressive during the summer, making his final start for Roger Varian a winning one at Nottingham in August. He appeals as the type to do better still for his new connections and can make a bold bid to defy a 3 lb higher mark back from a break. Castan and Water of Leith may emerge as the chief threats.
