2025: NO CORRESPONDING RACE LAST YEAR Tongue Strap worn by No. 3, 6. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 6. PROBABLE S.P.’s 6-4 Alfa Whiteburd (IRE), 10-3 Mr Cool (IRE), 5-1 Dicko The Legend (IRE), 12-1 Dorney Lake (GB), One of Our Own (GB), 14-1 Willolarupi (IRE)

TIMEFORM VIEW Made a promising return at Southwell last month and responded well to a positive ride to exploit a lower turf mark in impressive fashion in 10-runner event at Chester (7f, good to firm) last week, drawing clear from home turn. Back sprinting and likely to take some catching under a penalty. TFRHHHHH BHA68 (+12)

THE TIMEFORM VIEW ALFA WHITEBURD landed a bit of a touch when bolting up at Chester last week and remaining well treated on old form under a penalty, Ivan Furtado’s 5-y-o is expected to take some stopping. Dicko The Legend requires luck in-running given his slow-starting tendencies, but he’s put forward as the main danger, with Mr Cool completing the shortlist following a good second at Carlisle last week.

not to win having met trouble at Southwell in April. Has looked back in decent nick the last twice making the frame so isn’t one to discount, albeit he requires luck in-running given his slow-starting tendencies. TFRHHHII BHA69

TIMEFORM VIEW Got away on terms for a change and belatedly capitalised on his

much-reduced mark in 10-runner event at Doncaster (5.6f, firm) last week, quickened to lead 2f out. Well treated on old form under a penalty but similarly to his stablemate, slow starts TFRHHIII BHA64 (+3) temper enthusiasm for a follow up.
