Winchurch

9st 9lb

J: Harry Vigors

T: Michael Appleby

Won over C&D (good) in April and he got back on the scoresheet when rallying well for a clearcut success at Catterick (5f, good to soft) last week; 5lb higher here but this return to fast ground is no problem and he's respected back up in trip.

Flag Of Eva

J: Jack Dace

Big prices and he's finished tailed off here (8.3f, good) and at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in his two runs this spring; remains best watched for now.

Royal Zabeel

9st 6lb

J: Jason Watson

T: Michael Appleby

A strike-rate of 4-7 on AW includes two Listed wins, at 7f and 6f; not quite so good on grass as yet but he has a 7lb lower turf mark and indicated he could make it pay when an excellent fifth in the big-field Victoria Cup over 7f here (good; has won on good to firm) in May, not ideally positioned there as it turned out; one to consider back at 6f.

Reality Queen

8st 12lb

J: Robert Havlin

T: Michael Appleby

Lost her way for Jonathan Portman after winning at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) last September; however, she has dropped down to the same mark and makes her debut for a yard that has done well with recruits from other stables; interesting, especially if the market speaks in her favour.

Way To Dubai

9st 5lb

J: Benoit De La Sayette

T: Michael Appleby

Only 1lb higher than for his Lingfield (1m, AW) in January; up and down since that success and could prove vulnerable back sprinting.
