Having proved most progressive on all-weather during the second half of last year, ALFA WHITEBURD returned for his new yard with a very good second in a big-field York handicap 4 weeks ago. Unexposed at this trip and operating from a lower mark on turf, he could be the answer to this tricky puzzle. Recent C&D 1-2 Beattie Is Back and Riot are others fancied to be bang there, whilst Daring Legend and Silver Samurai are just a couple of others to consider.

    Verdict
    Dual C&D winner who caught the eye when ninth in big-field York handicap in May and quickly dispelled a lesser effort eased in class when ¾-length second of 10 to Beattie Is Back in handicap (11/4) at this C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago. Interesting in bid to land this for second successive season.

    Verdict
    Three-time winner in 2024 who comes here in good heart, runner-up in a race that has thrown up numerous winners at York on penultimate start and caught wider than ideal when third of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (7f) 11 days ago. Well up to playing a part again.

    Verdict
    Five-time winner at up to 7f who comes here in good heart, creditable third of 11 in handicap at York (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago. No reason why she won't give another good account.

    Verdict
    Landed 4 AW wins for Craig Lidster in 2024 and made a very bright return for new yard when second of 20 in handicap at York (6f, firm, 11/1) 28 days ago, running on. Lines up here totally unexposed at 7f and interesting operating from his lower turf mark.

    Verdict
    Far from disgraced when sixth in big-field York handicap (7f) on penultimate start (strong form) and proved himself as good as ever when resuming winning ways in 10-runner C&D handicap 13 days ago, by ¾ length from Riot. Enters calculations again.

    Verdict
    Has gone 8 runs without success since winning at Beverley last June, most recently fifth of 8 in handicap back at that venue 35 days ago when finishing with running left. Cheekpieces back on today and not taken lightly having scored here in the past. Cheekpieces back on.

    Verdict
    C&D winner last summer who ran his best race of the present campaign with a tongue strap refitted when second at Kempton (7f) in May. Best not judged too harshly on his latest Chelmsford run 4 weeks ago and a strong pace to aim at here will see him in a much better light.

    Verdict
    Dual 7f winner for Ismail Mohammed who hasn't shaped at all badly in 2 starts for new yard, finding herself too far back to land a low when eighth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 27 days ago. One to keep an eye on from career-low mark.

    Verdict
    Successful on return/stable debut at Newcastle (6f) last spring. Failed to kick on from that in trio of turf starts thereafter and shaped as if needing his first start for 10 months when tenth of 14 in a C&D handicap 21 days ago. This should reveal more.

    Verdict
    Veteran who tasted success twice on all-weather last year and far from disgraced in pair of starts since returning this summer, respectable sixth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 27 days ago. Fallen back down to last winning mark ahead of this and he's an each-way player.
