Verdict: Unexposed 5yo CAPTAIN HANLEY (nap) shaped with plenty of promise last time and is first choice ahead of improving 3yo Hill O Rue.

Naturalia

Jockey: Shay Farmer Trainer: Donald Whillans Age/Wt: 4/10-0 F: 9-754 OR: 63

Comment: Soft-ground winner at Carlisle (1m1f) last term; steadily finding her form this season, respectable fourth at Hamilton (1m3f, good) most recently; in the mix.

Captain Hanley

Jockey: Adam Caffrey Trainer: Adrian McGuinness Age/Wt: 5/9-13 F: 7-9804 OR: 62

1 tip

Comment: Irish 5yo who has very low mileage; eyecatching fourth, amid traffic issues, at Down Royal (extended 1m2f, good) most recently; may well build on that effort; interesting off the same mark.

Mr Withington

Jockey: D Nolan Trainer: Paul Robson Age/Wt: 4/9-13 F: 6-67 OR: 62

Comment: Not particularly solid on his novice form and lacks significant potential on breeding; something to prove off his opening mark.

2 tips

Comment: All wins in Class 6, the most recent in this race (off just 1lb lower) last year; placed in last two attempts in this grade (below par in Class 5 since); solid contender returned to this level.

Young Fire

Jockey: Mark Winn Trainer: David O'Meara Age/Wt: 10/9-9 F: 77720 OR: 58

1 tip

Comment: Multiple winner down the years; 0-6 in 2025 but ran encouragingly, albeit behind a fellow 10yo, over C&D on penultimate start; stone below last winning mark and hard to dismiss.

Penelope's Sister

Jockey: P Mulrennan Trainer: Jim Goldie Age/Wt: 5/9-9 F: 3-37153 OR: 58

Comment: Versatile mare who recorded a clearcut success at Ayr (1m) in most recent Class 6 attempt; ran well in Class 4 contest over C&D yesterday; possibilities back in this grade.

Tartaraghan

Jockey: D Tudhope Trainer: John McConnell Age/Wt: 4/9-7 F: 0705 OR: 56

Comment: Irish filly who has inconsistent recent form figures; competitively treated on best results but remains a longstanding maiden and is far more exposed than her compatriot Captain Hanley.

Say What You See

Jockey: Billy Garritty Trainer: Liam Bailey Age/Wt: 3/9-6 F: 13-053 OR: 65

2 tips

Comment: Ready success over 1m on AW last November; steadily back to form this year, respectable third at Hamilton (1m, good) most recently; shapes as if this return to 1m2f is worth exploring; one to consider.

Coulsea

Jockey: Sean Kirrane Trainer: Craig Lidster Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 756 OR: 64

Comment: Thrice-raced gelding who has shown some promise with two midfield efforts over 1m, including at Ayr; gives the impression this new trip may well suit on handicap debut; open to improvement.

Cisco Disco

Jockey: Kaiya Fraser Trainer: R. Mike Smith Age/Wt: 7/9-5 F: 7-69 OR: 54

Comment: Went close over 1m here last October (best effort for current yard) and latest run suggests this return to 1m2f is worth a go; long losing spell remains a negative.

Sure And Stedfast

Jockey: Rowan Scott Trainer: Ewan Whillans Age/Wt: 3/9-4 F: 84-84 OR: 63

1 tip

Comment: Seven-race maiden who has bits of encouraging form, most recently keeping-on fourth at Hamilton (1m, good) on first run since being gelded; may show progress upped further in distance.

Jachin

Jockey: O J Orr Trainer: Ivan Furtado Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 5-7065 OR: 62

Comment: 7f winner last term for previous yard; weak claims on 2025 form, latterly over 1m2f; chance depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear.

Hill O Rue

Jockey: T Eaves Trainer: Kevin Ryan Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 97-231 OR: 62

4 tips

Comment: Justified favouritism at Carlisle (1m1f, good to soft) last time, taking his form figures since handicapping to 231; this low-mileage 3yo is open to further improvement upped further in trip; respected.

Nippasso

Jockey: Joanna Mason Trainer: Michael & David Easterby Age/Wt: 3/8-7 F: 07-645 OR: 52

1 tip

Comment: Six-race maiden who has finished behind Hill O Rue twice since handicapping and seems unlikely to reverse placings with that improving rival; however, could go well off her reduced mark.
