He drops to 1200m, and the stable has opted to change the headgear from cheekpieces to blinkers. The son of What A Winter has finished third over this distance previously. He is doing well and from a good draw of two, he has an each way chance.
Winning Form Comment: 3rd run after rest. Best MR:90. Has shown fair recent form. Chance if suited to the polytrack.

She seems to have come on from her last run in the Listed Lonsdale Stirrup Cup. This is a nice type of race for her and Hollywood Racing-retained Jockey Gavin Lerena steps back into the saddle. If all goes according to plan, she is expected to be competitive.
Winning Form Comment: Best MR:100. *Entered for HDJ 2026. Finished third in a Listed event last time. Big chance.

He is an extremely good space, and he is a happy horse. The son of Rafeef jumps from a good draw of two and we are hoping to see him jump on terms. Hollywood Racing-retained Jockey Sean Veale knows him well and if all goes according to plan, he has a winning chance.
Winning Form Comment: 2nd run after rest. Best MR:83. Won penultimate start over this C&D. Should strip fitter.
