DECLARED RUNNERS 8 2025: MEETING ABANDONED Hood worn by No. 5, 8.

Stewards Note: SHABALKO D’HERM: Following its run on 6/12/2025 it was reported that the horse stopped quickly.

Probable S.P’s: 2-1 Baron Noir (IRE), 7-2 Swingin Safari (IRE), 4-1 Gambino (IRE), 9-1 Kocktail Bleu (FR), 11-1 Shabalko d’Herm (FR), The Egyptian Ginge (IRE), 66-1 Can U Feel It (IRE), 150-1 My Fortune (IRE) A few of these offer potential but the vote goes to BARON NOIR who holds the clear edge on form and looked to have something left in the tank when going in at Uttoxeter last time out. Dan Skelton’s new recruit Gambino was a fairly useful winner on the Flat and could emerge as the main danger starting PLAY SMARTER out in this sphere, although Wincanton scorer Swingin Safari and Nigel and Willy Twiston-Davies’ pair The Egyptian Ginge and Shabalko d’Herm can’t be discounted either.

DECLARED RUNNERS 8 Hood worn by No. 7. Tongue Strap worn by No. 8. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 2.

Probable S.P’s: 10-3 Quaviste (FR), 4-1 Williethebuilder (IRE), 9-2 We’re Red And Blue (GB), 11-2 Rare Edition (IRE), 15-2 Oakley’s Way (IRE), 8-1 Courageous Strike (GB), 28-1 King William Rufus (FR), 40-1 Washington (GB) RARE EDITION’s latest effort over fences at Ascot was modest but it could be that the return to hurdles will help provide a spark. Indeed, he is 2-2 here, his latest success coming in this race off a 7lb higher mark in 2024, and he appears to be pretty versatile PLAY SMARTER ground-wise. Handicap debutant Quaviste looks dangerous and is feared most ahead of last-time-out scorers We’re Red And Blue and Williethebuilder.
