1st	1	6	Azuinthejungle (G) C&D scorer last summer who has seemingly been working his way back and got off the mark for the season a bit more decisively than the winning margin indicates in 8-runner event at Ayr (6f, firm) just…	732111	Alex Jary N Tinkler	4	63kg	3.75 11/4

9th	2	3	Le Beau Garcon (G) C&D winner 5 years ago who proved rather in and out during a light 2025 campaign. Seemingly going the wrong way this season but the handicapper has dropped him a chunk as a result.	20-4509	Joanna Mason M & D Easterby	7	63kg	9 8/1
4th	3	4	Jojo Rabbit (G) Won this race last year and opened his account for the season at Pontefract (5f, soft) in April. Runner-up twice since, but last couple of efforts have been disappointing, most recently over C&D (goo…	722864	J P Sullivan Mrs R Carr	8	62.1kg	9 8/1
5th	4	7	Speeding Bullet (G) Won at Pontefract (6f, good) last summer and ended 2025 with good runner-up efforts at Southwell and Haydock. Has seemingly been working his way back this year, always trailing from a ponderous start…	422-077	D Nolan P T Midgley	5	61.7kg	13 12/1
7th	5	9	Empress Olivia (F) Confirmed reappearance promise when landing 13-runner event at Ripon (6f) in April. Has struggled since, running better without staging a return to form when sixth of 9 at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) 1…	210406	J Garritty M Walford	3	61.2kg	17 16/1
2nd	6	5	Golden Havana (G) V In first-time blinkers when winning at Newcastle in December and has continued in good heart this year (in visor last 4 outings), second of 6 at Ayr (5f, firm) 8 days ago. Can be thereabouts once mor…	332225	Sean Kirrane M Dods	3	59.9kg	10 9/1
8th	7	2	Opal Storm (M) PT Proved as good as ever to notch a second win of the season in 10-runner event over C&D (good to firm) 8 days ago, finishing to good effect to run down the pacesetters and score a shade cosily. 5 lb p…	150818	Faye McManoman B Rothwell	6	59kg	9.50 17/2

3rd	8	1	Crafty Spirit (G) FAV B Seems to have found a new lease of life in blinkers this season, supplementing his Wetherby success last month with victory in 10-runner event over C&D a fortnight ago, admittedly aided by the run of…	867-211	Barry McHugh J S Wainwright	5	57.2kg	3.25 9/4
6th	9	8	Without Flaw (M) Dual C&D scorer last summer. Returned with an encouraging third at Wetherby but hasn't backed it up in 4 subsequent starts, racing too close to the strong pace when 4¼ lengths seventh of 10 to Crafty…	374776	Cam Hardie Miss T Jackson	5	56.7kg	19 18/1
