⭐ Main Contenders
Cadarn Lightly Experienced
2-2 over C&D; could improve on stable/seasonal debut. Proven course form makes him a strong contender.
Double Parked Well-Exposed
Best form came over this C&D last season; if fully tuned up, he remains a major player.
Jolly Roger Lightly Experienced
Running well in UAE; if form translates back in Britain, he could be a leading contender.
⚠️ Next Best / Dangers
Sea Legend Well-Exposed
0-13 on turf but has shown ability with a few placings; not discounted.
Skipper Lightly Experienced
Below par in France last summer; could improve if returning to 2024 form.
Seagolazo Well-Exposed
0-7 last season, inconsistent but capable of showing a spark on the day.
Intrusively Lightly Experienced
New trainer could find key to improve form; seasonal debut requires monitoring.
New Image Well-Exposed
Well handicapped on 2024 form but ran poorly last year; needs significant improvement to feature.
Diderot Well-Exposed
Better on AW than turf; refused to race last time; plenty to prove before being trusted.
