5/2
Course winner. Six wins from 12 runs last year, completing the 5-timer in good style in 12-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 15/8) 7 days ago. Penalty might not be enough to prevent another victory.

9/2
Without a win since May 2023. Wasn't quite in same form as previous outing when fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 9/4) 3 weeks ago, but he could be in the mix from his career-low mark.

7/4
Last win over C&D back in March 2022. In first-time cheekpieces, only sixth of 11 in handicap at this course (8f, AW, 18/1) in September. However, he's dropped in grade on first run since leaving Michael Attwater.

4/1
Twelve runs since last win but ended 2024 in good form, caught too far back when third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 4/1) 16 days ago. Enter calculations.

100/1
Lightly-raced maiden. Back on turf after 4 months off, probably unsuited by conditions when last of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy, 28/1) in May. Has been absent for another 8 months since, though.

28/1
Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Ended last year with a lesser effort when eleventh of 13 in handicap (16/1) at Kempton (7f) 16 days ago. Has fallen further in the weights but more needed to take advantage.

Struggled for form last year, seventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 40/1) 16 days ago. However, he lurks on a dangerous mark as he makes only fourth start for current yard.

Promise on penultimate start, but was caught wide from poor draw when last of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 28/1) 16 days ago. Has dropped back down to her last winning mark.

Forecasts

Tadreeb (7/4), Havana Sky (5/2), Charlie Mason (4/1), Lord Rapscallion (9/2), Lahina Bay (28/1), Crow's Nest (28/1), The Smiling Wolf (66/1), Juan Solo (100/1)

Verdict

HAVANA SKY has been thriving of late, getting the better of another penalised runner when scoring at Wolverhampton a week ago, and he can go on to land the 6-timer in his current mood. Charlie Mason has made the frame on his last 5 starts and could be the main danger, with dual C&D winner Tadreeb also considered on stable debut.
