Valiancy
VALIANCY has a similarly progressive profile to Wathnan's 2025 winner French Master and is selected to make light of an 8 lb rise for Hamilton. Daiquiri Bay's Newmarket reappearance success appeals as strong form and he's second choice ahead another Wathnan runner Sing Us A Song. Real Dream is one who could go well at bigger odds.

Son of Cracksman who won a strong 3-y-o handicap over this trip at Haydock (good to firm) last September and progressed again to win 13f Hamilton handicap (good to firm) on reappearance. Almost certainly more to come, particularly now back at 1¾m.

Lightly-raced son of Lope de Vega who took a big step forward (gelded) when making a winning return in 13-runner handicap at Kempton (11f) in March. Improved again when length second of 8 to Daiquiri Bay in handicap at Newmarket (1½m, good to firm) 45 days ago.

Plenty of good efforts in defeat in strong 3-y-o handicaps last season and improved again to see off the reopposing Gamrai on his Newmarket reappearance (1½m, good to firm) 45 days ago.

Progressive in 2025, bagging the 2½m Ascot Stakes at this meeting before an excellent second of 22 in Ebor at York (1¾m, good to firm).

Generally a consistent performer in turf handicaps, including eighth in this off 2 lb higher last year. Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Carlisle (11f, good) 17 days ago.
