Spartan Times

Age: 5
Weight: 9st 7lbs
Or: 74

Enjoyed a productive 2025, winning 5 times and he resumed from 6 months off with success over hurdles at Uttoxeter (15.8f) earlier this month. Not disgraced when fourth at Aintree (17f) since and he rates a likely player back on the level.

Fairly useful form for Harry Charlton last year and ran just about her best race for present stable when sixth at Hamilton (11f) 11 days ago. Unexposed at middle distances but she does need to cut out the slow starts.

Sir Edward Lear

Age: 5
Weight: 9st 7lbs
Or: 74

Showed a good attitude when doubling tally at Newmarket (1¼m) last summer. Possibly in need of first start for 6 months when fifth at that venue 2 weeks ago and fancied to step up now returned to this longer trip in a refitted visor.

So Alex (Ire)

Age: 4
Weight: 9st 7lbs

Improved significantly for the step up to this trip, landing back-to-back handicaps at Wolverhampton during the winter. Posted a lacklustre effort when last seen at that venue in December but given a break ahead of this and bounce back rates distinctly possible.

Timeform Verdict

SOMETHING finds himself operating 2 lb below the mark he defied when successful in this race 12 months ago and is narrowly selected to capitalise on debut for a new yard. Sir Edward Lear and Spartan Times are others fancied to be in the thick of things.
