DILIGENT HARRY dead-heated for top honours in the Kachy Stakes on his reappearance here three weeks ago and should a return to the minimum trip pose no issue, he looks primed to go in again. Valiant Force is all about speed and is sure to launch a strong challenge, while it will be interesting to see how both Leovanni and Democracy Dilemma fare in the betting following their absences.
Leovanni is a fascinating contender on this first start since May, the 2024 Queen Mary winner retaining plenty of potential after just a handful of starts. She sports a first-time tongue-tie for what is her AW debut and is from a top yard, but VALIANT FORCE is race-fit, loves the AW - at Dundalk anyway - and seems poised to sit on the shoulder of the leader and pounce rounding for home. He holds the best chance at the weights. 2024 Diligent Harry boasts the highest rating of these and dead-heated in a 6f Listed event here last time but he has a 3lb penalty that could just hold him back.
Good attitude, career best in making all when winning the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket by a nose last time; returning from a break; effective 7-9f, likes a sound surface; twice a runner-up at this level in the past and doesn't have lead, good chance.
He has won three times from 7f to 1m 1f. A winner at 14-1 at Newmarket over 1m 1f (good to firm) on his latest outing in September last year, beating Indalo by a nose.

Chancellor was comfortably on top in the Tandridge Stakes a fortnight ago but he did hang markedly left in the last couple of furlongs, which he won't want to do on this tight track. With that in mind, preference is for the returning BOILING POINT, who defied top weight in the Cambridgeshire when last seen in September. Karl Burke's charge has stamina to prove, but a narrow defeat in the Strensall last summer would suggest he can improve for the extra distance. Nebras heads the remainder.
This looks set to go to either Boiling Point or CHANCELLOR, with slight preference being for the race-fit Gosden runner. He's long been highly regarded and has really started putting it all together since undergoing a wind op and having six months off. A good Listed winner at Southwell last time, there's sufficient stamina on the dam's side - she won the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf over 10f - to suggest he could improve again for the step up in trip and it's easy to see him closing late and fast down the outside. Boiling Point won the Cambridgeshire when last seen and is just the type to do better again as a 5yo, while the same connections won last year's race. He did need his reappearance/AW debut last year, though, so there's just a nagging doubt. Nebras, a stablemate of the selection, is on a hat-trick and has a good attitude but is likely to face competition for the lead.
Bit below form when fifth beaten 5l off 77 last time and is 2lb lower here. Effective over 10-12f; bounce back needed.

HEBRIDEAN NOMAD cruised into contention before meeting trouble here last time, so it was to his credit that he was still able to get up. A 4lb rise should be no barrier to further success and he's preferred to Relocal, who looked all about stamina when winning at Chelmsford last month. Lusaka didn't run too badly over 2m at Kempton and might do better now dropped in trip.
Roger Varian has his limited AW string in decent nick and his RELOCAL is taken to make it back-to-back wins following a breakthrough success over a longer trip at Chelmsford. The blinkers have been the making of him and he certainly looks to have the pace for the drop in trip. James Owen fields two runners with a chance, thee pick of them perhaps being Sword Of Wessex, who is having just his second start for the yard and goes in reapplied cheekpieces. He's still a maiden but looks well treated on the pick of his form. Stablemate Market House didn't look to stay 2m last time and drop in trip could help, so off a fair mark he can get involved too.

Nolton Cross won on his first start for almost two years at Wolverhampton earlier in the month and if he improves for the race, he is a force to reckon with. Paradias has been unlucky recently, beaten a neck when second at Wolverhampton and the same distance into third at Kempton, but an added 1lb may mean another place and a chance is taken on TOWERLANDS. Upped in trip after running on well to score at Wolverhampton, he sits on bottom weight and could surprise.
Nolton Cross overcame a lengthy absence to score at Wolverhampton, getting first run on the second, and his old form suggests a 3lb rise is well within his compass if avoiding the bounce. There's a strong chance AMMES has a few pounds in hand returning the Flat, though, having been gelded and shown himself to be a useful juvenile hurdler since his last outing on the level back in August. There's a chance this is a prep for the Fred Winter but he should still be fit enough to take this. Respond hasn't run since October but is almost certainly capable of better, like the selection being just a 4yo and hailing from a top yard.
Never threatened and was disappointing on his second start when comfortably held in a maiden at Kempton last time; should get at least 10f on the Flat. Useful in bumpers and looks a likely type for handicaps.
Unplaced in both starts. Finished 14l behind Mohaaraj when fifth of 8 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Kempton over 1m earlier this month.

The market may prove the best guide with so little form to work with and if EL NAY is supported, it might be worth taking the hint. A gelded son of Palace Pier out of a Frankel mare, if he lives up to his genes, he has every chance. Bellini Spirit arguably has the best form after finishing second at Chelmsford in October, with the third winning since, while Sin City is a newcomer of interest.
Ghaiyyath Deer is surely capable of better than he showed on his debut for Dermot Weld although the drop in trip isn't certain to suit. This may go to a newcomer, with TURRET and Al Maslool appealing most. The selection is a son of Kingman, out of a mare who is related to Group 1 winners Hydrangea and dual Guineas heroine Hermosa, and he can overcome a wide draw on debut for a yard that is traditionally strong in the 3yo department. Al Maslool is from a top yard also and related to a Listed winner in the US. It'll be interesting to see what the market makes of him on debut.
Ran to form when third, beaten 2l off 64 last time and runs off the same mark here. Has a wide draw and is effective at 7/8f. Has never won off a mark this high but the return to 8f may help.
He has won four times from 7f to 1m including 3 wins on polytrack. Third of 9 behind Twirler beaten 1 3/4l at 7-1 on his latest outing at Kempton over 7f earlier this month. Has won twice at Chelmsford City this season.

ANTIQUITY was only beaten a neck into second over an extended mile at Wolverhampton, which followed another runner-up effort over C&D. The four-year-old is clearly well enough handicapped to win a race of this nature and he edges out Ardaddy to be the pick. The latter has also been running well in defeat of late, while recent classified stakes winner Sold Out completes the shortlist.
ANTIQUITY has been knocking on the door, including when runner-up over C&D two starts back, and he backed that up with a narrow miss at Wolverhampton last time. He's been nudged up 1lb but gets the excellent Billy Loughnane aboard for the first time and is taken to get the better of Poke The Bear who had excuses at Wolverhamptton last time, when bidding for a hat-trick. He's off a higher mark now but the return to this C&D should very much be in his favour. Sold Out won a classified event last time at Newcastle and needs respecting back in a handicap under a penalty.
Up in trip and finished fast after minor traffic issues, would have gone very close when beaten 3/4l off this mark here last time; usually held up; effective 5-8f, suited by hold-up tactics; largely consistent and should be fine down in trip.
A winner at 6f on polytrack. Third of 7 behind Ebn Sabt beaten 3/4l at 20-1 on her latest outing here over 1m earlier this month.

MARRA DONNA has been beaten by less than a length on both of his third-placed efforts this month and Ollie Sangster's unexposed gelding has been found an ideal opportunity to get off the mark. Corniche Girl has also been running well in defeat of late and could prove to be the main threat, ahead of Rosieisme Darling and Real Gold.
We've surely still to see the best of MARRA DONNA, who ran well twice in the space of six days since moving into handicaps and has taken just a 1lb rise. The 6f trip at this course looks set to suit ideally and he can get off the mark, although it won't be easy with solid alternatives Rosieisme Darling and Corniche Girl looking set to give their running once more. The former has finished runner-up over 5f here the last twice and should have no issue returning to 6f. The latter can't be as certain to appreciate the return to this trip, having run well over 8f last time.
