J: Jack Callan

T: George Boughey

Sole win from seven starts came in a Wolverhampton novice (8.5f, AW) in October; she ran well when runner-up in a handicap there in April but well beaten over 1m2f on turf in two starts since and now drops to 7f for the first time since her debut; cheekpieces applied.

J: Jack Callan

T: George Boughey

A fair 8.5f juvenile winner; made a bright start to handicapping with Wolverhampton runner-up in April and best forgiven her Ascot (1m2f) seventh last month when suffering a poor run; she remains with potential and is a player here.

Sierra Sands

9st 11lb

J: Ryan Moore

T: Ed Dunlop

7f 2yo winner who kept on well to win in a small field here (6f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; this is more competitive but he did it cosily under Ryan Moore, who remains on board, and the return to 7f may be a plus.

Sierra Sands

J: Ryan Moore

7f Catterick maiden win as a 2yo; two solid runs this year sandwich a modest effort on the Rowley course; Ryan Moore returns to the saddle; still has low mileage and he can't be ruled out.

Spirit Of Saxony

9st 4lb

J: Charles Bishop

T: Eve Johnson Houghton

Has form figures of 212 over 7f, with the win in a novice at Kempton in May; built on that with an eye-catching effort back in handicap company over C&D (good) three weeks ago, repeatedly denied a run before finishing strongly for second once in the clear; that form has been boosted in recent days; good shout.

Spirit Of Saxony

J: Charles Bishop

Only fifth on his handicap debut at Ascot (1m, good) before justifying odds-on favouritism in an AW novice over 7f; encouraging to see the second win as he liked next time, so this gelding could be on the upgrade.

Won 6f maiden and novice events as a 2yo; has posted three good efforts since being gelded, the most recent when narrowly denied in a three-runner handicap at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) four weeks ago; contender.

Won 6f maiden and novice events as 2yo; two good efforts over 7f this year, doing well when attempting to give weight to a big improver on the other Newmarket course (good) and no disgrace in a Lingfield defeat next time when having to be switched; solid chance.

Lion Of Mali

9st 1lb

J: David Egan

T: James Fanshawe

Made it 3-4 for the year when winning at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in April and bounced back from a lesser run on soft ground with another win at Sandown last month (7f, good; Kimbara second); had just half a length to spare but he had to wait for a clear run and all of his wins have been by narrow margins; could still be ahead of the handicapper up 3lb.

Record in his first five handicaps read 21121, but finished over 7l behind Euphonia at Haydock (7f, soft) last month; may have found the ground too testing and now 10lb better off, but he still has work to do.
