Polling Day
Started his career with two wins on this AW track in 2021; 0-13 since (five races over hurdles) but closest when running on well to go down by three quarters of a length in 9.4f handicap at Wolverhampton in November last time, on his first run for current yard; should be seriously involved again.

Tribal Wisdom
3-16 when on AW, with all three wins last year (over C&D first time) and the latest in October; has remained in form, close second under Ryan Kavanagh when Etretat gained first run on him in a strongly run race over C&D five weeks ago; player.

Caelan
Won on Kempton Polytrack on debut and in a 9.4f handicap on Wolverhampton AW one year ago (2lb higher today); however, right out of form in May/July on last two outings, with cheekpieces latest; sold out of Marco Botti's for 5,500gns last July and had wind surgery soon afterwards; market may guide.

Etretat
Often ridden by Archie Young; very reliable since last July, including three wins and the latest (never better) was over C&D early last month when getting first run on Tribal Wisdom in a strongly run race; creditable third at Chelmsford three weeks ago and should go well again.

Raintown
5-8 on Lingfield AW, with his last three wins coming over 1m4f here last January, June and September; disappointing favourite over C&D in November, however, and seldom seen over a trip this short in the last 14 months.

Annexation
Won six races (four on the Flat, two AW) when trained by Henry de Bromhead but only one (last April) in the last three years; sold for £3,000 in October and 40-1 for stable debut over C&D 16 days ago but he finished strongly from last to third in that 11-runner amateurs' race and looks set to have a big say off the same mark today.

Early Morning Dew
In good form with blinkers in the second half of 2024, winning 1m2f handicaps at Epsom and Chelmsford; back to form when close third over 1m4f here two weeks ago, so he's firmly in the mix.

10/1 |
Obsidian Knight
5-19 on AW, including 4-10 on Lingfield AW; both his wins last year were gained very narrowly, latterly when leading on the line over C&D in November off 2lb lower than today; needs to bounce back from a poor show 16 days ago but that was an amateurs' race and he has never shone in one of those.
