Form & Verdict

Listed winner at Windsor (1m, good to soft) in May and this consistent front-runner added a Group 3 win there (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces (retained today); carries a 3lb penalty today in a tougher race but can give another good account.

3yo who won on handicap debut at Royal Ascot (1m2f, soft) before narrow handicap defeat at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm), when conceding 9lb to one who followed up in a French Group 2; won Group 3 at Haydock (10.4f, soft) last time and he's very much on the up; respected under 3lb penalty.

Group 3 winner on soft in 2021; touch regressive and failed to score last season but, following a gelding operation, has shown resurgent form in two notable AW races this year (clearcut Listed scorer at Kempton latest); enters calculations now he's moving back in the right direction.

Form & Verdict

Looked one to follow when impressive in a big-field handicap at York (1m4f, good to soft) on reappearance in May, notching a six-timer in the process (has won over C&D on good); it's possible the first-time cheekpieces will help him get back on track today, but he has something to prove having been well beaten in a Royal Ascot Group 2 and the Ebor the last twice.

Had a mid-season lull last term but perked up again with cheekpieces in the autumn; only fourth of seven when favourite for reappearance four weeks ago but that was a creditable run on form, extending his good record at this track; today's rivals seem to demand a bit more but he is respected.

Had a mid-season lull last term and 2021 reappearance form remains his clear best, but he perked up again when cheekpieces were fitted in the autumn and ended that campaign by winning Group 3 over C&D (on soft by 1l from Max Vega at level weights); has a good record at this track, including on good ground last September; a leading contender.

Completed a six-timer when impressive in handicap at York (1m4f, good to soft; acts on soft) on reappearance in May; that progress ended in comprehensive fashion in his four starts since but his penultimate outing was creditable and that was at this track when third of five in 1m3f Group 3 in first-time cheekpieces (kept since); big chance on best form but he's risky now.

Lightly raced 4yo who kicked off this campaign with two comfortable Group 3 wins here (1m4f, good/good to soft); beaten a neck the next twice, in the Group 1 Coronation Cup then a Group 2 at Newmarket; gelded since that last outing in July and holds leading claims under a 3lb penalty.

Four Group 3 wins (1m2f-1m5f), the latest at Haydock last August; kept on for good second of five to Phantom Flight on reappearance at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm; Listed) a fortnight ago and he could build on that performance this afternoon; key player.

Form & Verdict

25-1 Listed win at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) in May on just her second run; this 3yo filly remains very lightly raced and represents a trainer who has won four of the last six runnings, but she has plenty to find in today's line-up and was soundly beaten at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) last time.

4yo filly who still has very low mileage; Listed winner over C&D (soft) on reappearance last term; looked suited by drop back to 1m2f at Newmarket (good to soft) on final start, running well in Group 3; interesting back here on seasonal debut, especially if the going is on the slow side.
