J: Ryan Moore

T: Richard Hughes

Without a win since his second start as a 2yo, but several good efforts since as when beaten a length into third of 24 in the Newbury Spring Cup (1m, good ) last month; Ryan Moore keeps the ride and rain shouldn't be an issue, but the draw could have been kinder.

J: Ryan Moore

T: Richard Hughes

On a 14-race losing sequence but he was runner-up three times last term, including when beaten a head at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good); went off third favourite in a big field at the Curragh on reappearance but didn't give his running; on a retrieval mission with Ryan Moore booked.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Richard Hughes

0-13 since winning in 2023 on his second start but he went close at Goodwood (1m1f, good) last August and again finished second at Yarmouth (1m1f, soft); an interesting runner despite uneven form.

T: Richard Hughes

0-12 since winning in 2023 on his second start but he went close at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good) in August and again finished second at Yarmouth (1m1f, soft) last time; yard in excellent form and he's one to consider.

10st 2lb

J: Billy Loughnane

T: Richard Hughes

Runner-up in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Sandown in May (1m; albeit no match for the winner); well beaten in the Royal Hunt Cup next time but it was close to a career best when beaten a head in 16-runner handicap at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good) last month; back up 3lb but he acts on a testing surface and warrants firm consideration.
