Runners Spotlight

NR
Youthful King
Favorite

Much more exposed than some of today's rivals but was successful at Sandown (1m6f, good to firm) on most recent attempt in this grade; Elizabeth Gale takes off useful 5lb.

Jockey: Trainer: Luke Dace
NR
Barenboim

Yet to win away from the AW sphere and he's on a long losing sequence that includes a record of 0-6 for current stable; not the percentage call.

Jockey: NON-RUNNERTrainer: Tom Dascombe
2
Steel Tiger

Bounced back to form in this grade at Windsor (11.5f, soft) last time, while shaping as if this step back up in trip will suit; 1-1 over 1m6f (AW win) and enters calculations.

Jockey: Paul MulrennanTrainer: Simon & Ed Crisford

Contacto

Progressive in handicaps last term; hasn't continued in the same vein during a fairly light 2025 campaign but faced a tough task in the Old Borough Cup here most recently; this is easier.

Jockey: P J McDonaldTrainer: Andrew Balding
5
Loving Look

Disappointing favourite back over 1m4f when last seen 11 weeks ago; creditable fourth to Youthful King at Sandown (sole 1m6f attempt) the time before and is unexposed at this trip.
