Second of 18 at Newmarket (6f, good) in April then went one better at Goodwood (6f, heavy); now 3lb lower than for that last win but his subsequent form has been mixed and others appeal a bit more.

8st 11lb |
Now 3lb lower than when winning over C&D (heavy) in May on sole visit here; however, his form hasn't hit the same heights since and he needs to raise his game if he's to come out on top. |

Form: 342534 CD

7 yo Gelding
OR: 93
Versatile sort who was a close fifth of 17 at Ascot (5f, good) in July before a near-miss at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) and a good fourth at Goodwood (7f, good to soft); his Doncaster form-figures read 122186 and there's every chance this in-form 7yo will be in the mix.

On a long losing run; several good runs this year, including a second of nine at Doncaster (6.5f, soft) last Sunday, but this looks too competitive for him now. |

25th Aug 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Useful sprinter; losing spell goes back to Group 2 win in 2022 but he has been knocking at the door in handicaps this season, very close third at Wolverhampton (AW) most recently; possibilities off current mark, provided he takes well to the belated first crack at 7f. |

Form: -21452 C

4 yo Colt
OR: 87
Prominent-racer who was a game winner here (6f, soft) in March and rallied for second of 15 at Haydock (6f, good) most recently, both under Ethan Jones; this is a rare foray beyond 6f but there can be optimism it will suit.

28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Races prominently; good C&D record with a win (in lower grade) and two seconds from three attempts and he lost nothing in defeat behind a well-treated and well-supported rival at Doncaster (extended 6f, soft) recently; others might be a bit better handicapped but he shouldn't be far away. |

4th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

Scored over C&D last summer; absent since creditable fifth at Newbury in April; generally consistent but chance partly depends on how the ground is riding (suited by softer than good). |

Form: -67470

5 yo Gelding

Unable to threaten the last twice but things didn't go his way; before those he was a close fourth at Newbury (7f, good to firm) and has now dropped below his last winning mark (over 5f on AW); not discounted.

Peak effort this season when fourth at Newbury (7f) in August, behind the subsequent Ayr Gold Cup winner Lethal Levi; now 3lb lower and Fred Daly takes off 7lb; attractively weighted. |

9st 3lb |
Unraced on soft/heavy; latest race didn't pan out well for him; steadily back to form otherwise this year and he's now back on last winning mark; disappointing favourite in this contest 12 months ago but made the frame in the 7f handicap at Royal Ascot earlier in 2023. |
14/1 |

Form: /41-61

5 yo Gelding
OR: 98
5yo who made it five wins from his seven starts when beating Silver Samurai at Kempton (7f, AW) in January; off since and now makes turf debut, but he's in top hands and has defied an absence before; could play leading role.

9st 6lb |
First seven starts came on the AW, winning five, the latest of which was a 0-105 contest at Kempton (7f) in January; off 228 days before a satisfactory fifth on nine on turf debut at Doncaster (6.5f, soft) but needs better to win a competitive race like this from the same mark; stable also runs Germanic. |

All runs on AW, winning four of his six starts (once here over 6f); below par at Newcastle on New Year's Day (6f) and now returns to 7f; still not fully exposed and he's greatly respected. |

He was back down in trip and back on slow ground when going close at Goodwood (6f, good to soft) last month, and another near-miss followed at Ascot (6f, soft) last Saturday; ran well over 7f on good ground as recently as last May, so there can be hope today's conditions will be fine; respected.

Both turf wins on soft and won a Listed race on AW in November; ducks and dives regarding the trip but he nearly made his first 6f turf handicap a winning one at Goodwood recently; back up 4lb but has course form at 7f; interesting. |

6 yo Colt

Runs off a mark 4lb lower than when winning this last year (soft; versatile ground-wise); he arrived in much better form 12 months ago but his five visits to Doncaster all sit within his top seven career RPRs, and he could return to form with a bang now back at this course.

4th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
He's had a disappointing campaign but has dropped down the weights and took a big step back in the right direction in first-time blinkers (retained) when a close fourth at Ripon (6f, soft) last Saturday, having been slowly away; this course winner may be able to build on that latest performance. |
6/1 |

28th Sep 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
It's been a struggle for him so far this year, including back under favourable conditions at Doncaster 13 days ago, but he's down to a good mark and possible the switch to blinkers will pique his interest. |

2021 2yo course winner who took a sizeable step back in the right direction when close seventh of ten at Chester (6f, good) a fortnight ago and continues to edge down the weights; has to build on that run now in blinkers.

31st Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Down the field all four starts this year; hard to know if he's in any sort of form, but the handicapper has dropped him a chunk and a poor draw was a possible excuse when he was last of eight in C&D Listed race last time; was previously 2-2 at Chester; impossible to rule out. |
7/1 |

8th 2 (9) |
4th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Has some very smart form on his CV and is 2-2 at Chester but generally very disappointing since winning valuable prize at Qatar in February 2023 (same race won by Emaraaty Ana this year); last of 25 in Wokingham at Royal Ascot six weeks ago and has outside draw today; revival needed. |
20/1 |

Returned from break to win here (7f, good) off this mark in June; down the field the next twice but suffered interference on the first occasion and is 2-2 here, so is well worth a second look; won over 6f last August.
