J: Kieran Shoemark

T: Ed Walker

Four wins at 6f for previous yard but he was far from disgraced when seventh of 28 in 7f Victoria Cup here (good; first-time cheekpieces) in May; drawn on the wrong side when he finished last at the Royal meeting but he's dropped to a handy mark and shouldn't be discounted on this return to 6f.

Four-time 6f winner who ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) in the Victoria Cup over C&D most recently, albeit taking record for current yard to 0-5 and failing to improve for a return to 7f.

J: Kieran Shoemark

T: Ed Walker

Campaigned mostly over 6f, winning four times for previous yard; 2-5 on grass; mixed results on AW for new stable; ran respectably in sole 7f attempt but chance of landing this hot handicap partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear.

J: Ashley Lewis

T: Ed Walker

Met all sorts of trouble when down the field behind Berkshire Whisper here 12 months ago; beaten in races won by reopposing rivals in all three starts for his new stable this winter; edging down the weights and has a good apprentice booked but others still appeal more.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Ed Walker

Did well last winter and carried the good work onto turf, winning at Windsor last June on his final run for Kevin Philippart De Foy; two good runs in defeat for his new stable this winter; Oisin Murphy booked and he is one to consider.
