KambooW Buick - R Hughes1/00180-	3/1	10/13
Won here as 2yo, opened his 2024 campaign in the Derby and a Royal Ascot handicap, before sights were lowered when justifying favouritism in a Racing League handicap at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta, 4lb higher today) in August, heavy defeats in major 1m4f turf handicaps on his two subsequent starts, since which he's been gelded and had wind surgery, dark horse reappearing at 2m but his family and style of the Newcastle win give significant hope.
Who's GlenOisin Murphy - A M Balding334215-	4/1	20/21
Progressive on Tapeta (unraced on Polytrack) before winning by a wide margin at Chester (1m6f, heavy) last September, ran creditably off this 12lb higher mark at York in October, which was good enough for only fifth of seven but he seemed caught out by a steadily run race and showed promise for this longer trip, better looks likely moving into just his second season.
Golden RulesR Havlin - T Faulkner124412/	5/1	23/20
Eight races overall and only two in more than three years with current yard, when making all over C&D in March 2023 and going close in the Northumberland Plate (2lb lower today) that July, the first of those came after 638 days off and this time he's had 637, with his trainer's five wins this year including two at 66-1, so it may well be dangerous to write this 8yo off.
JabbarJ P Spencer - Gerard O'Leary1232-16	7/1	6/4
Last of six when 6-5 favourite at Dundalk in February latest, however, that's almost his only disappointment in more than two years with current connections, never better than for Dundalk win (2m, Polytrack) in February and although there is a bit to prove off his revised mark, he needs respect.
AlrazeenL Morris - Miss Gay Kelleway2711-16	7/1	6/4
Disappointing favourite five weeks ago, denting his good records both on AW surfaces and at 2m, won his three starts going into that, all under Luke Morris and on third occasion doing so in clearcut fashion over C&D for a career best, 3lb higher today but a player if bouncing straight back.
Cool PartyS De Sousa - C Johnston144-453	8/1	17/10
Can front-run, completed a double over C&D last autumn, has come up short in his five starts since (three here) and was a notch below his best on last three occasions, but no fitness concerns and he's 1lb below his last winning mark.
MetierSaffie Osborne - H Fry217/758-	11/1	23/10
Easily best known for his exploits on soft/heavy ground, on the Flat winning 2022 November Handicap and 2023 Chester Cup, the latter was off same mark as today but he did not fire on all cylinders last March-July and he's run only once on AW, when finishing last over C&D in 2023, enough doubts.
TritonicDavid Probert - A King406320-	16/1	16/5
Can front-run, infrequent winner nowadays, last scoring in a four-runner chase in November 2023, ran badly over C&D in December on latest Flat start but runner-up here the previous month and he was a creditable fifth in this race last year after another winter break, 5lb lower today.
Youthful KingJack Dace (7) - L A DaceP5617-0	33/1	8/1
In good form this time last year, won under Jack Dace last September and has a run under his belt for 2025, however, peak AW efforts have been at Lingfield rather than Kempton and never having raced beyond 1m4f means that plenty of guesswork is required for this 2m race.

SopranoW Buick - G Boughey341320-	8/11	2/13
Had an excellent 2024, winning Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot and Group 3 event at Deauville, both over 1m, down the field at the Breeders' Cup when last seen in November, probably needed the run on her only previous AW start, she's the pick on ratings and the one to beat.
ShuwariJ P Spencer - Ollie Sangster1122/	4/1	8/13
Very useful form as a 2yo, winning 7f Listed race at Sandown (beat subsequent Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Fallen Angel) and finishing a close second in the Fillies' Mile at Newmarket, may still be capable of better and has leading claims if ready to do herself justice on AW debut after 17 months off.
Crimson AdvocateR Havlin - J & T Gosden3116/10-	7/1	1/1
Lightly raced 4yo, US-trained when winning Group 2 Queen Mary as a 2yo and stakes event at Gulfstream Park last May, came up well short in Group 1 contest at last year's Royal Ascot, drops in class here but has stamina to prove after an absence on first outing beyond 5f.
Rubies From BurmaOisin Murphy - H De Bromhead831-	12/1	7/4
Improved markedly in three outings last season, making all in 1m Cork maiden on third of them by a wide margin (runner-up went one better next time), bred to be smart (out of a half-sister to Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck) and looks a very interesting contender in this higher grade.
Rose PrickSaffie Osborne - E Walker7/32554-	14/1	2/1
Third at 50-1 in this race 12 months ago and held her form well afterwards without winning, has a solid record fresh and likely to give her running again, each-way hopes.
Queen Of AtlantisCallum Hutchinson - P W Chapple-Hyam114622-	25/1	10/3
Ended 2024 campaign with good seconds in two 1m handicaps at Ascot, those runs suggest she'll come up short in this higher grade but she goes well on the AW (three wins from five attempts) and it would be no surprise if she posted a career best on her return from seven months off.
RomanovaT E Whelan - Ollie Sangster717/6	25/1	10/3
Impressive 7f winner as 2yo, out of the frame both starts since but she might have needed the run after a long absence when sixth of 11 in Lingfield handicap four weeks ago, possibilities if building on that and her pedigree offers hope that she'll stay this far (pulled hard when tried previously).
Muddy MooyEdward Greatrex - P Attwater12-1	40/1	6/1
Successful in two of her three races, most recently a novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in February, will need a chunk of improvement to follow up but she's going the right way and impossible to discount.
Gaiety MusicalDavid Probert - P D Evans6-11152	100/1	20/1
Three AW handicap wins so far this year include two over C&D, has a fitness advantage over some of today's rivals but she has plenty to find on form and would be a surprise winner.
Mercury DayS De Sousa - C Allen119345-	100/1	20/1
Won over 1m at Newmarket last summer but looked held by the handicapper in four subsequent outings and is now up in grade after six months off.

Cavallo BayW Buick - C Appleby11343-	4/6	1/4
Useful and consistent last term, winning twice over 7f and finishing fourth in a US Grade 2 (8.5f) in October, gelded after final start, shaped well on only run at Kempton, the pick on form and probably the one to beat.
HawksbillOisin Murphy - H Palmer42146-	7/2	20/23
Sole juvenile win came over 1m at Haydock in August, good fourth in Listed race next time and might have been unsuited by soft ground when well held in Group 2 Royal Lodge at Newmarket final start, may still have untapped potential and must be considered on AW debut/reappearance.
Glittering LegendDaniel Muscutt - J R Fanshawe5141-	11/2	6/5
Steadily progressive in four races as 2yo, signing off with narrow win in four-runner nursery at Doncaster (1m, soft, led over 1f out and did just enough) in October, has to concede weight all round but is open to further improvement this term.
Local LadJ P Spencer - Gerard O'Leary432-	15/2	9/5
0-3 last term but he showed plenty of promise, finishing fourth in 6f Group 3 on debut and arguably unlucky not to win 1m maiden at Naas on final start, well up to winning races this season and he's a rare British raider for his in-form Irish stable.
Obsidian DreamTaylor Fisher - J S Moore65164-	66/1	30/1
Won a sprint maiden at Bath last term and finished the campaign with a good fourth in 7f York novice, will probably stay 1m but he faces a stiff task on the ratings and would be a surprise winner on his reappearance.

	Win	Place
CajetanEdward Greatrex - J Channon481-88	4/1	6/5
Looked good when winning over C&D last May and again when winning by a wide margin at Newcastle in December, the latter performance saw him clobbered by the handicapper and he has finished well held twice since, wouldn't judge him too harshly on latest run though as those held up were seriously inconvenienced, stable won this race last year.
RohaanDavid Probert - P D Evans-54272	5/1	29/20
Not the force of old and his losing run stands at 17, runner-up twice at Southwell in recent weeks but that course perhaps more suitable for him than this one, sure to be popular but he'll need them to go hard early.
Harry DidPierre-Louis Jamin - Harry Eustace87-341	6/1	17/10
A switch to front-running saw him gain his first handicap success at Newcastle 25 days ago (6f), form boosted by the two subsequent wins of the runner-up, a 3lb rise still leaves him feasibly treated but it won't be so easy dominating in this higher grade.
AramramAlec Voikhansky (3) - R Hannon31217-	7/1	19/10
Got stuck in the Newbury mud when last seen in October but he'd been in fine form beforehand, winning 6f handicaps at Doncaster and Wolverhampton either side of a good second on the Ayr Silver Cup, still has the potential for better and rider's claim useful too.
Amazonian DreamOisin Murphy - B R Millman11-973	8/1	11/5
Ended 2024 with a pair of AW wins, the second over C&D off just 1lb lower, solid third at Southwell when last seen in January, wouldn't look any more than averagely handicapped but Oisin Murphy has a good record on him and his presence in the saddle is an obvious plus.
HaboobaRay Dawson - T Kent1123-8	9/1	12/5
Progressive last year, winning twice on AW (once over C&D) and ending that campaign with two solid placed efforts, not at her best at Wolverhampton on her return to action three weeks ago but there were mitigating circumstances (drawn 3 but got involved in a tussle for the lead with stalls 1 and 2 and ended up a bit wide), shouldn't find it so difficult to dominate this time and she remains capable of better.
Change SingsCharles Bishop - Eve Johnson Houghton/6118-	10/1	11/4
3-3 at Kempton, the latest win coming off 3lb lower last May, absent since a low-key run at Goodwood 293 days ago, career best required.
WalbankW Buick - G Boughey50-020	12/1	16/5
Placed in Group races at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood as a 2yo, only win since came in Dubai (6f, good, stable debut) in January 2024, he's been in Bahrain this winter, only running to form once, on a reduced mark back in Britain and William Buick booked so can't be discounted, for all he isn't a solid option.
Al BarezJ Mitchell - Tom Clover11089-	12/1	16/5
C&D winner, back to his last winning mark and he has a good record fresh, he'll need to be at his best if he is to defy the widest stall though.
Monsieur BeaulieuS De Sousa - N P Littmoden-14223	14/1	15/4
Two Lingfield wins at a lower level this winter and he has performed with credit since the last of them, whether he is well enough treated for a race of this nature a moot point though.
Tiger CrusadeDaniel Muscutt - D M Simcock-15429	16/1	9/2
4lb higher than for his Wolverhampton win in January, in and out since and others make more appeal for win purposes.
AraratL Morris - R M H Cowell26157-	18/1	11/2
Most of his racing for David Simcock (including his three wins) was at 7f and he was no match for Aramram over this trip at Wolverhampton last October, sold for 35,000gns later that month and new yard likely to find the key to him sooner rather than later, not ideally drawn for a prominent racer.
