J: Warren Fentiman

Won two in a row (6f/7f, good to firm) last summer and performing well in defeat this year, including second to Air Force One in a big-field at York (5f) in July and to subsequent Ayr Bronze Cup winner Winged Messenger at Epsom (6f; third and fourth also won since) when last seen seven weeks ago; raced mainly on good or firmer but showed promise on soft at the start of his career; has first-time cheekpieces added to his tongue-tie; high on the shortlist with Warren Fentiman taking 5lb off.

J: Frederick Larson

T: Michael Appleby

Dual 6f winner last year who's shown enough in two runs back from a second round of wind surgery, including on his first crack at this trip last time, to suggest this mark is within range; not yet fully exposed.
