'Front-runner; won five C&D races before current win drought; good apprentice booked.'

'New turf career best when beaten by 0.75l last time; chance again off 1lb higher.'

'Inconsistent; likes this C&D and is down to his highest winning mark; lacks 2025 form.'

'Debutant who has not showed much in three trial race outings; bred to stay a bit further.'

'Dual C&D scorer; C&D third on his last two starts; shortlisted despite wide draw.'

'No great encouragement during 5f debut two weeks ago; big outsider again here.'

'Better effort when only beaten by 2.5l over C&D last time; drawn wide today, though'

'0-9 in Hong Kong; C&D second in April then denied clear run latest; Purton now recruited.'

'Prominent racer with wide draw who seems to be appreciably better on dirt.'

'4lb lower than for three decent C&D runs; latest dirt run best forgiven (lame afterwards).'

'Disappointing last time; repetition of three earlier C&D seconds would give him a shout.'

'Showed first sign of ability over 5f last time; considerable further progress needed.'
