Having been steadily progressive during the second half of last year, JEZ BOMB showed the benefit of his reappearance when runner-up over this trip at Southwell 25 days ago. Representing a stable in form, a good pace to aim at will help back on turf and he shades the vote to come out on top. Highland Olly shaped as if worth a crack at this trip when runner-up at Redcar recently and along with last-time-out scorer Makalu, heads the dangers.

    Verdict
    Four wins from 13 runs last year, the latest at Newcastle (1m) in October. Showed benefit of his reappearance with usual cheekpieces refitted when second of 7 in handicap (9/2) at Southwell (8.1f) 25 days ago and one to consider back on turf for yard amongst the winners.

    Verdict
    C&D winner who went winless during 2024, some way below his best when tenth of 11 in handicap (22/1) at Newcastle (1m) in December. Begins this campaign on a potentially handy mark as a result, so interesting if strong in the betting on return.

    Verdict
    Put it all together when shedding maiden tag at Musselburgh (7f) in August. Below best on final outing in October but back to form after 6 months off when second of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Redcar (7f, good) 15 days ago. This longer trip worth exploring on that evidence.

    Verdict
    Back to winning ways over an extended mile at Beverley last spring. Largely consistent in defeat thereafter but he does need to shrug off a lesser effort when ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 25/1) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and not discounted back at this shorter trip.

    Verdict
    Course winner who ran right up to previous best for this yard after 5 months off when landing 8-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 25 days ago, overcoming pace bias to ultimately score cosily. 3 lb rise should see him thereabouts again.

    Verdict
    Still looking for first success but she did have excuses after 5 months off/on account of the trip when twelfth of 18 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good) 24 days ago. This rates more suitable and she comes here operating from career-low mark.

    Verdict
    Successful twice on AW during a productive 2024. However, recent efforts not so inspiring, his slow starting in evidence once more when seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 12/1) 18 days ago. That has to be something of a concern ahead of this.

    Verdict
    Dual scorer at 7f back in October and held form well during a busy spell thereafter, good second of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) on final start in November. Versatile as regards ground but he does tend to need a run or two, so percentage call to look elsewhere.

    Failed to progress as a 3-y-o for Brian Ellison and no upturn in 2 starts for present yard, last of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 46 days ago. Visored for 1st time but he has plenty to prove.
