Form & Verdict
Front-runner who made it 4-4 in handicaps when beating some of these at Newmarket (6f, good; has also won on good to firm) last month; appeared to have more in hand last time than the 1l margin suggests and today's 5lb higher mark may not stop this highly progressive sort.

Very useful front-runner whose strike-rate is 12-32; bagged Group 3 honours at York (7f) last June and a valuable pot at Doha (6f) most recently; unbeaten (4-4) in 6f contests on the Newmarket courses and has shown that he can win in sizeable fields; likely to make a bold bid back here.

Form & Verdict
Went very close in C&D sales race at last year's Ebor meeting and has shown solid handicap form the last twice, most recently runner-up at Newmarket (6f) when splitting Quinault and Eminency; off 1lb higher he's 4lb better off with the (admittedly ready) winner and he might not be far away.

Won a C&D nursery (good to firm) last July and kept on well for close second of 14 on last month's reappearance here (7f, good); on that latest evidence this drop back in distance isn't an obvious plus, but a strong pace will offer some compensation and he's open to further improvement.
