Being a low-mileage 5yo who ran well here last week and looks open to further improvement, GOLDEN CIRCET is preferred. Beauld As Brass, who bids for a quickfire five-timer, and dual course winner Trojan Truth look the biggest dangers.[Steve Boow]

Regular slow-starter but that hasn't stopped him from completing a quickfire four-timer (1m2f/1m4f) this spring, looking better than ever; gained last two wins in comfortable style at Bath last Monday and Leicester on Saturday; big player in current form, even with a double penalty.
Ex-Irish 5yo who has low mileage; registered a solid win at Bath (1m2f; form has been boosted) on second start for new stable; ran well off this mark here (11.5f, good to firm) last Monday, beating all bar the market leader; open to further progress and warrants respect.
Opened her account in 7f contest at Ayr on final start for previous yard; 0-4 over hurdles since; still fairly unexposed on the Flat but has something to prove at this trip (first 1m2f attempt); tongue-tie applied.
Raced twice in his first season last year, winning at Ripon (good) then coming up short under a penalty at Redcar (soft), both times over 1m2f; the debut form is weak and he doesn't look favourably treated.
Consistent in Irish maidens in 2022/2023 but not seen on Flat since; showed inferior form in two hurdles starts last year for new yard; had wind surgery subsequently; market may offer further guidance.
Has a better strike-rate on AW than on turf and is 4lb higher than for sole success in this sphere; failed to sparkle at Pontefract last month when returned to grass for first time since September.
Still has something to prove at this level, having gained all wins in Class 6; however, starts his 2025 campaign on a workable mark and has shown that he goes well fresh, having made a successful reappearance last year; furthermore, he's a dual course scorer; shortlisted.
