Stewards Note:

BORN LIKE ME: Following its run on 6/11/2025 it was reported that the horse never travelled.

Probable S.P’s: 2-1 Japetus (GB), 5-2 Is This For Real (IRE), 3-1 Lock Stock (GB), 8-1 Kings Champion (FR), 50-1 Lady Velouette (GB), 66-1 A Law To Himself (IRE), 80-1 Urblereagh (FR), 150-1 Born Like Me (FR)

An interesting opener JAPETUS and Is This For Real both displayed signiﬁcant promise in bumpers, with the former narrowly preferred. Lock Stock was an encouraging second on his recent hurdle debut and should also play a prominent role for in-form Ben Pauling.

GREAT BRITISH BONUS SCHEME

The Great British Bonus (GBB) incentivises and rewards with breeding, buying and racing of British-bred fillies by paying out bonuses of up to £100,000 per filly And now with GBBPlus to further incentivise staying fillies and chasing mares, there are more reasons than ever to breed, buy and race British. Majority funded by the HBLB.

PESCATORIUS is thriving under the expert tutelage of Olly Murphy and is fancied to defy a 7lb weights rise for his Sedgeﬁeld success (form been franked) at the chief expense of in-form I Am Rocco, who could have to settle for runner-up spot once more. Former winner Caro des Flos goes well round here and could also have a say despite an 11-month absence.

He’s narrowly preferred to fellow handicap debutant Nazare, while Bitsnbuckles could have say if ready to roll on return. Walk In The Valley is by no means a back number stepping back up in trip for a capable yard
