Form & Verdict
Often a bridesmaid but she was expertly delivered by William Cox to win at Chepstow in July and then posted a career best when beaten a head at Ascot (again 5f, good to firm) eight days later; creeping up the weights but should be in the thick of things once more.

Likeable 8yo mare with a consistent record and ten wins to her name; as good as ever when third of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last month, keeping on gamely; should go well again off 1lb higher.

Led before giving best to one rival on each of his last four turf starts (all 5f); doesn't seem so effective on AW and beat only one home at Lingfield last time; could bounce back on grass but others appeal a bit more.

Dominated a four-runner apprentice handicap at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) last month, but he's taken two backward steps since then; handles most ground but he's still 4lb higher than for that last success and others are more convincing.

Took advantage of a drop in the weights when making all to record his second C&D success in an apprentice handicap (good to firm) eight days ago, beating stable-companion Savannah Smiles by 2l; races off the same mark (6lb well in) and a big chance of following up.

T: Grace Harris

8yo who is without a win since August 2024; however, he was beaten just a nose in a classified here (5.7f, firm) in July and 6f stretched him at Windsor last time; this seven-time course winner could play a leading role back here and back down in trip.

Pipped by Jackie Brown in a 5.7f classified at Bath last time, with Sisters In The Sky finishing strongly another nose back; that was so nearly his first win for two years (8-81 overall) but coming fourth in 2022 was easily his best result from five visits here.

Third in similar C&D race to this (good; first run since rejoining this stable) in June and also ran well when third in recent 5f handicap here (firm) but is not one to rely upon heavily and sometimes races too freely.

Veteran sprinter; seemingly held by Symbol Of Hope on their Windsor running nine days ago, but he was forced to race wide that day, has a good record at Salisbury and is not discounted by any means.

Front-running filly; tends to hang under pressure but that has not stopped her winning twice (5f, good to firm) and proving better than ever this summer; beaten only a neck at Chepstow three weeks ago and should make another bold bid from the inside stall.

Form & Verdict
All three wins have come on the Polytrack at Lingfield (5f-6f) but he's just as good on turf; running respectably at present and he may have more to offer with the possibility of a well-run race here likely to play to his strengths; in-form 7lb claimer Connor Planas rides for the first time.

Has much better strike-rate on AW but recovered from slow start to win here (5f, firm) on turf return in May, and this longer trip will arguably suit him better; needs to bounce back from two down-the-field runs but was denied a clear run on first occasion; can't be ruled out.

Better known on AW; can lead but he came from off the pace when winning at Bath (5f, firm) last month under James Glennon; nothing went right from a wide draw at Beverley since but he does act well on fast ground and has a generally good record over C&D (course winner at 5f); thereabouts.
