MAN OF THE SEA won twice here in 2025, including when returning from a break last April, and the 10-year-old commands plenty of respect with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. Educator has to enter calculations dropping back to a more suitable level, with his efforts at Kempton and Lingfield towards the end of January giving him every chance, while The Craftymaster completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Man Of The Sea 2nd Educator 3rd The Craftymaster

MADELEINE makes plenty of appeal on paper coming from a yard who are more than capable of getting one ready on racecourse debut. She boasts a decent draw in stall five and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the daughter of Ardad got off the mark. Passerine represents a top stable and has to be on the shortlist, along with Miss Moneypit and Seed Ya Later.
Prediction : 1st Madeleine 2nd Passerine 3rd Miss Moneypit

MOE'S LEGACY has returned in fine fettle this season, with a victory at Wolverhampton followed by a placed effort at the same track, and Ron Harris' mare has every chance in her bid for a fourth C&D success. Safari Dream shaped well on his return at Kempton last month and the drop back in trip appears likely to yield improvement. Others to consider include Aces Wild and Jax Edge.
Prediction : 1st Moes Legacy 2nd Safari Dream 3rd Jax Edge

STARMADE was progressive in three starts as a juvenile, culminating with a smooth maiden success at Newcastle when last seen. With Jamie Spencer in the plate that day and retaining the ride, connections have taken meticulous strides to ensure continuity for this well-bred colt's handicap debut. The reliable Campenaerts has C&D experience and warrants close inspection on debut for Jonathan Portman, while Noble Vow, Blue Orbit and Akabusi command respect back on turf.
Prediction : 1st Starmade 2nd Campenaerts 3rd Noble Vow

OURBREN was highly tried last year and readily sets the standard back in a maiden. At the forecast odds, the daughter of Starman wouldn't qualify as the 'value bet of the day', but it would be surprising if she is turned over if she runs anywhere near her official rating. Tough Date outran market expectations when third at Southwell and could go close with another step forward, while Miss Mambo appears best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Ourbren 2nd Tough Date 3rd Miss Mambo

CHAPMAN'S PEAK looks well placed to overcome a 4lb rise imposed after the latest of two handicap wins at Kempton last autumn. Given he is already a winner over a mile and handles turf, reverting to this trip can see the son of Showcasing complete the hat-tick on his seasonal debut. Crafty Blue got off the mark at Southwell when last seen and must be taken seriously, while Armstrong and Glasgow Kiss have each-way appeal.
Prediction : 1st Chapmans Peak 2nd Crafty Blue 3rd Armstrong

Galaxy Wonder returned to winning ways at Wolverhampton last month and should mount a bold bid, but it may pay to side with MY AMBITION. Denis Coakley's three-time C&D winner posted a fine runner-up effort at Lingfield on his seasonal debut last month and the assessor might have been kind to leave his mark alone. Pitney lurks on an appealing figure and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st My Ambition 2nd Galaxy Wonder 3rd Pitney

Eutropia hasn't finished outside the top three in each of her last five outings and is likely to be thereabouts once again. Course winner Annexation is one to watch, but the vote goes to STUDY UP. The son of Due Diligence finished third at Wolverhampton prior to pulling his chance away at Southwell last time, but he was kindly dropped 2lb for that effort and could prove hard to beat.
Prediction : 1st Study Up 2nd Eutropia 3rd Annexation
