    Form & Verdict
    Last of three here in his penultimate race but successful on either side of that, getting up close home on last week's nursery debut at Doncaster (extended 6f; good to firm; first-time blinkers); the penalty has to spell danger in this much deeper handicap.

    Bang there in three of his four races (the last two over 7f) and he was only 5l away when 66-1 for the Coventry on his second start; likely to give his running once more, but he's probably vulnerable off this mark unless first-time cheekpieces can make a difference.

    Form & Verdict
    All runs over 7f on good and good to firm; comfortable winner of a Lingfield maiden before going off at 66-1 in the Chesham at Royal Ascot and performing accordingly so his Group 1 entry in Ireland looks optimistic; the stable's handicappers always need a second look here but he wouldn't be the obvious answer.

    Form & Verdict
    First two runs were over 6f and he was gelded after; took quite a strong hold at Sandown (7f, good) recently, so to his credit he did well to rally for third, finishing just behind Cilician; open to improvement in this bigger-field scenario, and David Evans appears to mean business in booking Colin Keane.

    Form & Verdict
    Narrowly repelled Cilician off level weights in a 6f novice at Nottingham in early June after which he failed to fire in the Coventry at Royal Ascot; upped to 7f for nursery debut in a small field at Chester (good) and that race didn't go entirely to plan behind the winner who ran quite well in Listed race at Ascot last week; handily drawn and could have a part to play.

    Made his debut over 5f and it was at 7f that he got off the mark in a small field at Haydock (good to soft); he tackled 6f in the Woodcote at Epsom (good to soft) and finished to some effect to take fourth; returning to further can be beneficial and Ryan Moore has a good draw to work with.

    Unbeaten since upped to 6f and, although both races were sellers, the latest at York (won well) is always a strong race for the grade and connections retained his services for £30,000; stall 16 could pose problems but this colt is firmly on the upgrade and 7f could suit.

    Both runs over 7f on good to firm; out of a 1m4f winner; looked nice when overcoming a slow start to win comfortably at Carlisle and he chased home respected opposition in a good time at Ascot (the winner Dr Rascal won Tuesday's Vintage Stakes); there's no doubt he has more to come and Oisin Murphy is often a significant booking for this yard.

    Scopey colt who was all the better for being gelded when going down by a neck at Catterick (7f, good to soft; tried to make all) and the winner has since defied a penalty at Sandown, beating Cilician and My A'Ali Baba; shrewd trainer has secured Toby Moore's useful claim and stall 1 is ideal should he again go from the front; wears first-time blinkers.

    All runs over 6f on good or faster ground; a Windsor winner in May but he suffered heavy defeats on either side of that, latterly in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (125-1); pedigree firmly points towards this trip suiting him better, but he isn't overly appealing with cheekpieces now turned to.

    Came from well behind to win at Nottingham in May (6f, good) before outclassed in the Albany (100-1) at Royal Ascot; seemed to see out 7f fine when a close third of five runners in her first nursery at Lingfield (AW), yet that was a Class 5 and this race demands plenty more from her; wears first-time cheekpieces.

    From last year's successful stable; bred for further but has improved with each run and was nicely on top late on after making all in a 7f maiden at Epsom one month ago (good); she'll do well to adopt the same tactics here from stall 14 but likely to finish her race off well.

    Had considerable traffic issues when behind The Ginger Kid and Cilician on his debut but he hasn't kicked on from there, weakening last time at Newbury when raised to 7f (again behind Cilician); needs to be seen in a very different light if he's to feature on nursery debut.

    Verdict

    No winner has exited from a stall higher than 12 in the last decade, with seven drawn in single figures. Richard Hughes forever craves winners at this meeting and nursery newcomer THE BOOKKEEPER may have been saved for this since his staying-on fourth over 6f in the Woodcote at Epsom. Second choice is the scopey Leave The Bag In who is well drawn if he's to adopt the same positive tactics as when narrowly denied at Catterick by a subsequent Sandown winner. Compelling cases can also be made for My A'Ali Baba, The Ginger Kid and Mia Fantasia.[Alistair Jones]
